News & Reviews:   ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 pre-order

So apparently, ASUS Malaysia has released a teaser image on their Facebook page announcing another budget-friendly device coming soon. It's none other than the ASUS ZenFone Max (M2), the younger sibling to the current ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 and it's slated to be released on 11 January 2019.

When rumours of a new ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 were floating around, my first thought was that the successor was too soon should it ever be true. And true enough, ASUS officially launched another budget-friendly smartphone in Indonesia where we got to have a first look of the device. I played with it for a couple of days and after two weeks, here's our review on the pros and cons of the ZenFone Max Pro M2.

Officially launched in Jakarta, Indonesia, the ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 has also officially gone on sale online on ASUS Malaysia page on both Lazada Malaysia and Shopee Malaysia but with different models. As mentioned in our coverage news yesterday, the 4GB + 64GB model will only be on Lazada for RM859 while the 6GB + 64GB model is on Shopee for RM999. Obviously, it's marketed for the gaming community on a budget so if you're considering it, you may check out our unboxing and hands-on video below, trying out the camera, gaming and even a drop test!

Today, the ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 has finally been revealed in Jakarta, Indonesia after weeks of teases here and there. It's a rather quick release after its predecessor back in July 2018 and for our local set, it seems that Malaysia will be getting two models which are the 4GB + 64GB and 6GB + 64GB model for the official price of RM859 and RM999 respectively. Is there any difference from the ZenFone Max Pro M1? Well, allow us to give you the breakdown.

It was only yesterday that we posted a news about the speculated ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 price tag. While that was happening, someone on Shopee spotted the smartphone being listed there already. So today, Shopee has reached out to us that their platform has received the exclusive rights for the upcoming launch.

So yesterday, we managed to get our hands on the upcoming ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2. While we are restricted from showing you any official hands-on photos of the smartphone, we can tell you that most of the rumoured tech specs online are true, and some juicy news on the speculated price tag.

Only a week until the big reveal of the much anticipated ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 as well as the Max M2 and it seems like the tech specs of the smartphone has been leaked. Reportedly, the ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 will be rocking the Snapdragon 660 and 4GB RAM while the Max M2 will be sporting the Snapdragon 636 and 4GB of RAM.

ASUS officially teased the ASUS Zenfone Max Pro M2 on the ASUS Indonesia Twitter account. This phone is featured as a gaming smartphone with the hashtag #NextGenerationGaming. The phone will be launched on the 11th of December. Though, we suspect that the device was teased due to a video leaking the device by Youtuber “GadgetsNow”, whose video was removed only a mere few minutes later.

Well known leaker Roland Quandt (@rquandt) today tweeted about the upcoming budget phone by ASUS, which is the ASUS ZenFone Max Pro (M2). He claims that the smartphone could be launched soon in two variants, one with a triple rear camera.
