So my shiny new phone arrived - an Asus Zenfone 3 I purchased with my Steem profits via @roomofsatoshi.
I've been using it obsessively for a few days and I'm blown away by the speed , the slickness of the ZenUI interface , the battery life (95+% at 3am) but above everything else ..
This camera is amazing
I couldn't be happier with my purchase , thank you @pharesim for your great review that prompted me to look into this phone in the first place .
After I've had a bit more hands on time with this beast I'll do a more detailed review of my own if there's interest - for now you get some amateur shots of things around the house over the last few days.
My photo's don't do this justice , but I thought I'd upload some raw photos if anyone wants to try and compare and see if this is worth it.
This quick shot turned out to be one of the nicest photo's I've taken yet

It handled focussing on a flame pretty well, even with a bright light behind it :

Image quality is great.
Image quality is good but i think the Samsung galaxy s8 camera is the leader in smartphone camera today, and my target is also to get a new iphone 8 with my steemit earnings, please wish me luck @ausbitbank and support me if you can thanks.

At sir @ausbitbank your shot is great congrats for ur new phone how I wish I could bought something from my steem but I think it can't even for an iPhone or the old one hahaha. The pixel of your photo is so clear even it's just a simple pic it looks so nice. Keep the shot rolling.
Damn bro, that kidney stone must have hurt.
;)
Ever since Asus came up with the new zenfone series. Been loving the camera the most! Certainly pulls it close to what the iPhone offers. And it's like a third of the price. Best buy for your buck! Lovely shots! Thanks for sharing. Cheers!

Is this phone a thing for witnesses ?

Will it make me a better witness ?
Those are pretty fantastic. I almost bought one of those a month or so ago but got an OPPO instead. That's great that you're so happy with your new phone, particularly the camera!
Amazing shots buddy, looks good.
But i heard Asus phone equals to an ironbox😷😷
But none can beat my redmi in heating😂😂.
That is looking pretty decent.
