Fresh Insights: Asus Zenfone 11 Ultra Renders Resurface; Geekbench Listing Hints at Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC

The Asus Zenfone 11 Ultra continues to make waves in the smartphone arena, resurfacing once again to tantalize tech enthusiasts with its design and specifications. Fresh design renders have emerged, reaffirming the device’s aesthetic appeal and showcasing several color options previously leaked. Notably, the model has also made an appearance on a benchmarking website, shedding light on its potential processor and RAM configuration.

Renowned tipster Evan Blass (@evleaks) recently unveiled design renders of the Asus Zenfone 11 Ultra, offering a glimpse of the handset in captivating black, blue, orange, and silver hues. These colors, reminiscent of Skyline Blue, Eternal Black, Desert Sienna, and Misty Gray, respectively, align with earlier leaks, setting the stage for a stylish and versatile lineup. Interestingly, the green variant, which surfaced in previous leaks, was conspicuously absent from the latest images.

While Asus has yet to officially announce the Zenfone 11 Ultra, speculation suggests that its launch may coincide with the unveiling of the base Asus Zenfone 11 model, positioned as the successor to the Asus Zenfone 10. As anticipation mounts for the official debut, tech enthusiasts eagerly await further details regarding this flagship device, poised to make a significant impact in the competitive smartphone landscape.

However, the design of the Asus Zenfone 11 Ultra phone is similar to the ones we saw in the previous leak, with glossy ridges on the back panel alongside a raised, rectangular camera module to hold three sensors and an LED flash unit. The ‘Asus Zenfone’ branding is seen embossed vertically beside the camera island in the top right corner. We also see the front panel of the purported handset, which appears with a flat display with very slim bezels and a centred hole-punch slot at the top to hold the front camera. The power button and volume rockers are seen on the right edge of the handset.

The Asus Zenfone 11 Ultra was also spotted (via Nashville Chatter) on Geekbench with the model number ASUS_AI2401_H. The listing suggests that the phone will likely be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC paired with 16GB of RAM, and ship with Android 14-based OS. On the single-core test, the phone registered a score of 2,226, and on the multi-core test, it recorded 6,949.

Specifications listed in the previous leak of the Asus Zenfone 11 Ultra suggested that the phone may sport a 6.78-inch full-HD (2,400 x 1,080 pixels) Samsung flexible AMOLED LTPO screen with up to 120Hz refresh rate, which can go up to 144Hz in Game Genie mode. It was also tipped to get up to 16GB of LPDDR5x RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 4.0 onboard storage.

For optics, the Asus Zenfone 11 Ultra may carry a 50-megapixel IMX890 primary sensor with a wide-angle lens and OIS support, alongside a 13-megapixel sensor with an ultra-wide lens, and an OIS-supported 32-megapixel telephoto camera at the back, while the front camera may have a 32-megapixel RGBW sensor. The handset has also been tipped to get a 5,500mAh battery with support for 65W wired and 15W wireless charging.
