Here is our very quick unboxing video featuring Zenfone Max Pro (M1).
So far it has the same aesthetics and design as that of Zenfone Max M1. Comes with premium executive looks and solid built but still slim even while carrying a 5000mAh Battery. Compared to all glass of some smartphone models, I prefer the metallic built than dual glass for it can withstand a beating.
Yet similar in design but different in some way... Max Pro M1 3.5mm jack is located on the bottom part of the smartphone together with it MicroUSB Port, Speaker and Microphone. The left side lies the Sim card and microSD slot while on the right is Volume rocker and Power/Lock Button. Only a microphone pinhole is located at the top of the device. Fingerprint sensor is located on the back which we also prefer for faster unlocking.
The 6 inch 18:9 Full HD+ Display on the front is really something with nice color reproduction and good contrast, you will really enjoy playing your movies and games on this smartphone. and with bigger battery, guess it time to get ready for that non stop movie marathon or conquer the mobile gaming arena.
Booting it up, we were surprised it started so fast and optimized the system very quick. If you are used to ZenUI, then you might find it different as Zenfone Max Pro uses Stock Android Oreo with Added Unique Features. Yet with Stock Android, the system is more fluid and smooth as we were using the phone and navigating through its UI.
For first impressions, ZenFone Max is a promising Battery King with minimalist design matched with slim profile converging with no frills stock Android, very responsive and optimized plus carrying a massive battery. Featuring Dual Bokeh Camera setup, Zenfone Max Pro is not left out in terms of photography and video. Quite sure people will appreciate the Zenfone Max Pro (M1) for its versatility even demanding consumers will find it as a great choice for their next smartphone buy.
