Following its launch in Russia, later in Malaysia, the Asus Zenfone Max Plus (M1) is now making its way to other parts of Europe (Western Europe), with a price tag far above that of the Zenfone 4 Max Plus, despite offering much lower battery capacity and MediaTek MT6750T chipset.
Like we pointed out earlier, the Asus Zenfone Max Plus (M1) is, by all means, a mid-tier phone with a thin bezel display, the second after Asus launched Pegasus 4S in China. Its major selling points as suggested by the “Max” moniker, is the presence of a big battery capacity and probably a dual camera setup on the rear.
