Rival of the iPhone 16, this ASUS Zenfone 11 Ultra takes a terrible slap on Black Friday

Black Friday has been in full swing on Amazon since Thursday morning. The merchant has decided to run its operation from November 21 to December 2 without interruption with similar offers throughout: you will therefore not be surprised to see prices drop over time. And if this is the case, Amazon will reimburse you the difference over this period.

If you are looking for a powerful smartphone, the ASUS Zenfone 11 Ultra is a very good product. Saying it rivals the iPhone 16 Pro or Galaxy S24 Ultra is a bit ambitious, but it's still on that wagon. And above all, it has become significantly cheaper thanks to this Amazon offer: you can get the 256 GB version for only 699 euros instead of 999 euros, or 30% discount.

For those who don't know ASUS and its smartphones, you have a good reason to let yourself be tempted by Amazon: it allows you to make returns until January 31, 2025. This leaves you two months to test the Zenfone 11 Ultra and you convince. You can also give it at Christmas and make sure it is popular: if not, you can always return it and get a refund.

A very good Android smartphone

The ASUS Zenfone 11 Ultra was unveiled on March 14, 2024 and it marks a turning point in ASUS' strategy by abandoning the compact format of its predecessors in favor of a more imposing high-end smartphone (you can also read our test here). It has a 6.78-inch LTPO OLED screen with a refresh rate of 144 Hz and aims to directly compete with the flagships of other brands like Samsung, Xiaomi or even Apple.

Under the hood, the Zenfone 11 Ultra features the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor from Qualcomm with 12 RAM and 256 GB of storage (for the offer in question on Amazon). The device is distinguished by a very good 5,500 mAh battery (more than a day of autonomy in basic use) compatible with 65W fast charging and 15W wireless charging. On the photo side, it is equipped with a trio of sensors with a 50 MP main, a 13 MP ultra-wide-angle and a 32 MP 3X telephoto lens.

ASUS positions the Zenfone 11 Ultra as a direct competitor to high-end smartphones with a starting price of 999 euros for the 12/256 GB version, fortunately reduced by 30% for this Black Friday on Amazon. With his advanced AI featureslike the AI ​​Call Translator for real-time translation of calls, ASUS seeks to stand out in a very competitive market while remaining under the 1000 euro mark.

At 999 euros, it was a bit expensive. At less than 700 euros, this is now a very good deal. You have an opportunity to have a premium Android smartphone at a price that is closer to mid-range. Whether in terms of performance (with the excellent Qualcomm processor), design or autonomy, you are spoiled with this product. This is one of our favorites for these early hours of Black Friday.
