ASUS is gearing up to launch the Zenfone 9 phone, as a successor to the ASUS 8 (No Zenfone branding for India) lineup from last year. This comes just weeks after the brand had unveiled the ASUS 8Z phone in India. Now, while we wait for the announcement, ASUS has accidentally released the promotional video for the Zenfone 9, showing off the entire design and specifications. The phone can be seen in Black, White, Red, and Blue colour options. Like last year’s Zenfone 8Z, the upcoming ASUS Zenfone 9 will also be a flagship and compact size.

On the very first look, it is quite evident the ASUS Zenfone 9 is a very compact phone. The handset has a punch-hole cutout on the top-left corner for the selfie snapper and narrow bezels. The volume rocker and power button with a fingerprint sensor embedded in it and a smart slide key are on the right edge. The 3.5mm audio jack and a secondary microphone are on the top, while the speaker grille and a USB Type-C port are at the bottom.

The back panel houses two large dual camera sensors and an LED flash. There is a 50MP Gimbal Stabilisation and ‘9’ text engraved on the panel as well.
