In the smartphone market, Asus’ approach is to focus on two niches. As a result, the manufacturer has two ranges, ROG Phone and Zenfone. If the first is geared towards gaming, the second is more focused on the compact side. For the winter sales of 2023, Boulanger the 8 + 128 GB version at 659 euros instead of 799 euros.
Unlike other manufacturers that develop a model for each segment, Asus’s positioning is quite intelligent. With its Zenfone range, the firm is facing an ultimately less competitive market: compact smartphones. The latest model in this version is the Asus Zenfone 9. For the 2023 winter sales, you can get the 8 + 128 GB version for 140 euros less.
Why is the Asus Zenfone 9 interesting?
- The mighty Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1
- A 120 Hz AMOLED panel
- 8K video recording at 24 fps

Asus Zenfone 9 at the best price?
A reference in compacts
With each generation, Asus always manages to maintain the DNA of the Zenfone models, that is, a compact, ergonomic, powerful and well-finished smartphone. The Zenfone 9 thus acquires a sober design with rounded edges. The grip will be nice with its 68.1 x 146.5 x 9.1mm for 169g. To improve its ergonomics, the back is made of polymer plastic. The smartphone is not at risk of slipping through your fingers or leaving fingerprints.
The other advantage of this model, in addition to its compact size, refers to the screen. For this iteration we have a 5.9-inch AMOLED panel that shows 2,400 x 1,080 pixels of definition (Full HD +) and a density of 445 ppi. This gives it a particularly deep black and infinity contrast. To this is added an adaptive refresh rate of 120 Hz. Suffice it to say that the fluidity will be daily in this smartphone.
A compact with premium features
Beneath the Asus Zenfone 9 hides a monster of power, the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor combined with the Adreno 730 graphics chip. We also have 8 GB of LPDDR5 RAM, with 128 GB of ROM. No game, even the most greedy, will be able to undermine such a setting. It is even the most powerful in its category. You can go about your daily tasks calmly and comfortably with this smartphone.
Despite its small format, the Zenfone 9 has a 4,300 mAh battery that is long-lasting. With extensive use, this model will last well through the day and in standard use it is around a day and a half. If Asus has skipped wireless charging on this smartphone, you can recover 100% of your battery in 1h15. Finally, the main photosensor is 50 Mpx compared to 12 Mpx for the front photographic module. They do the job.
