    A concentrate of power

    Coming from a 5.82 inch Huawei Honor. I wanted to find a concentrate of technologies in the same format. This zenfone 8 is a real head turner.
    The amoled screen + the two stereo speakers make it a real little portable studio.
    I've been using it for a while now, but it's not that bad.
