The Asus Zenfone 6 is one of the best surprises of 2019 so far.
It’s one of the most attractive smartphones out this year, with a true "all-screen" design — unlike so many smartphones with notches and hole punches in them to make room for a selfie camera.
In the Zenfone 6, the selfie camera is actually the rear camera: there’s actually a mechanism that flips the rear camera to the front whenever you want a selfie. It’s pretty cool!
The Zenfone 6 is unlike any other smartphone we’ve seen this year, so we compiled its best features to help make sense of why it’s such a compelling package.
1. The price: The Asus Zenfone 6 starts at just $500 — half the price of other premium smartphones.

The iPhone XS starts at $1,000. The Galaxy S10 starts at $900, and the S10 Plus starts at $1,000. This phone is half the price of those phones — and it still looks great, and works exceedingly well.
The starting price gets you 64 GB of storage, but you can get up to 256 GB.
2. The Zenfone 6 is truly an "all-screen" phone. Its 6.4-inch 1080p LCD panel actually stretches from edge to edge — with no notch or hole punch for the selfie camera. It’s totally seamless.

3. The Zenfone 6 doesn’t have a traditional selfie camera. Instead, whenever you want to take a selfie, the rear camera flips around to face you. This is how Asus was able to deliver an all-screen phone.
