Asus Zenfone 3 Max First Impressions: Big Battery, Neat Design

Same as the Asus Zenfone Max, the Zenfone 3 Max also comes with a bigger battery of 4100mAh battery. Asus sent us a review of the Asus Zenfone 3 Max and here are our first impressions on the same.

Neat Design!

Neat Design!

Unlike the other Zenfone 3 smartphones, the Zenfone 3 Max comes with an all-metal body design, which doesn't look bad at all. Take the phone into your hand and you will immediately notice that there are no design issues with the smartphone.

All the Zenfone 3 series of smartphone impressed us with their design language and so does the Zenfone 3 Max, however, because of the metal build, the phone feels slippery at times.

Bright and Crisp Display

Bright and Crisp Display

The Zenfone 3 Max comes with a 5.5-inch 1080p display which is very bright and vivid. Colors appear rich and the screen also has great viewing angles. However, when taken the smartphone into bright sunlight, you'll immediately notice that the brightness levels are very low, which is a bit of an underwhelming.

The Asus Zenfone 3 Max comes with the latest entry-level Snapdragon 430 processor along with 3GB of RAM and Adreno 505 GPU. In our brief period with the phone, it hanged multiple times and all we need to do is to restart the phone to get it working again.

Heavily Bloated Zen UI 3.0

Heavily Bloated Zen UI 3.0

The Asus Zenfone 3 Max comes with the company's own Zen I 3.0 skin, which as usual is heavily skinned. However, all the bloatware can now be uninstalled. Also, we faced some lags with the user interface at times, which is not much annoying.

Betting on the Big Battery

Betting on the Big Battery

The Asus Zenfone 3 Max comes with a 4100mAh battery. I used the smartphone for around a day and the for the entire day, I charged the device just once and end of the day, the smartphone was still left with 50 percent of juice. We will put the device into our battery tests in coming weeks and will update the complete battery life in our final review of the phone.
