It also shows the times in New York and Berlin, which means the phone will be launched in Taiwan, the US and Europe at the same time.
The companions post on X.com also teases deep AI integration. However, the company did not go into detail about what this means. The company has released several teaser videos for the Zenfone 11 Ultra to showcase its video stabilization feature, portrait mode and long-lasting battery. Thanks to a detailed leak, we know what to expect from the new flagship. It looks like a modified version of the ROG Phone 8 Pro. It will have a similar design but will lack the gamer-oriented features. So no fancy RGB lights or capacitive AirTriggers, just a conventional flagship smartphone.

ASUS ZenFone 11 Ultra Specifications
The ASUS Zenfone 11 Ultra will come with a 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED screen with Full HD+ resolution. It will have a 1-144 Hz refresh rate for better performance. Under the hood, the flagship will carry the excellent Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC with 16 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512 GB of UFS 4.0 memory. The phone will also sport the same trio of cameras found on the ASUS ROG Phone 8 Pro. It will get a 50 MP Sony IMX890 main camera, a 32 MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom and a 13 MP ultra-wide lens.
The phone has a centered hole for the selfie camera and a square camera island for the rear camera placement. The camera module sticks out quite a bit from the back of the device, so it might be a good idea to use a case if you don’t like that kind of design. The back of the phone comes with several stripes aligned across the back.
The Zenfone 11 Ultra will offer a massive 5500 mAh battery with 65W wired charging and 15W wireless charging. Interestingly, users will find a 3.5mm headphone jack, which is rare for flagship phones.
