The ASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe is identical to the original ZenFone 2 when it comes to specs but looks a bit different from the outside. It features a multi-faceted texture on its back case, which should provide a comfortable grip. It looks fancy as the color hue changes when the phone is tilted. Its spec sheet includes a 1080p Full HD display, a quad-core Intel Atom processor, up to 4GB RAM, up to 128GB of expandable internal storage, a 13-MP primary camera with dual-tone, dual-LED flash, a 5-MP front-facing snapper, and a 3,000 mAh battery with quick charging technology. The ZenFone 2 Deluxe will come in purple, pink and white color variants and will cost around $400.

It has a dual-tone, dual-LED flash and a 5-MP front-facing camera. Its entry-level model comes with a 720p HD display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 SoC, 2GB RAM, and 16GB of expandable internal storage. Its higher end version comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 SoC and 3GB RAM. There is also another variant with a 6-inch display. A 3,000 mAh battery will keep its lights on.

Third is the ASUS ZenFone Max, which houses a whopping 5,000 mAh battery unit. Because of its very high capacity, it can double as a power bank to charge other USB-powered mobile devices. Despite its very large battery, it's just 5.2 mm thin at its slimmest point. Its other specs include an 64-bit octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC, a 13-MP main camera with dual-tone, dual-LED flash with laser-assisted auto-focus, and a 5-MP front-facing snapper. It will be available in October 2015 at an undisclosed price.
