Nearly confirming almost all earlier leaks, the ASUS Zenvolution revealed the ASUS ZenFone 3 Deluxe, ZenFone 3 and ZenFone 3 Ultra. The ZenFone 3 Deluxe will offer the world's first all metal unibody design using PureMetal Technology with invisible antennas while the ZenFone 3 will follow the metal frame and shiny glass back of the earlier leaks for $249 (RM1024).
Both will support rear fingerprint sensors but the ZenFone 3 Deluxe will pack in a Snapdragon 820 processor, 6GB of RAM, a 23MP rear camera with three types of autofocus and 4 axis optical image stabilization and more for $499 (RM2053).
The larger 6.8-inch display packing ZenFone 3 Ultra goes for more familiar rear volume controls with the same camera as the Deluxe but the fingerprint sensor is built into the front home button for $479 (RM1971). It also offers richer Hi-Res Audio with a large 4600 mAh battery.

The folks at Red Dot 21 recently showcased renders of the yet to be released ASUS ZenFone 3 and ZenFone 3 Deluxe. They expect a 2.5D glass on both front and back with a curved metal frame, that looks much like the Samsung Galaxy S6. However, the renders don't seem to agree on there being a front home button, with one having it and the other not. For long-time ASUS ZenFone users, this doesn't look like a ZenFone at all, despite the concentric circle panel on the bottom, as the ZenFone series never had any physical home button on the front. More details in this article.
