Both devices at first glance look similar, at least from the images provided below, however, there are a few obvious differences. While the Zenfone Max Plus (M2) has a simpler dual camera setup of unknown configuration, the Zenfone Max Shot gets an additional camera sensor making a total of four with a LED flash below it. Both devices get a capacitive fingerprint sensor and are about the same dimensions.
Although the certification page didn’t reveal much about the device’s internal makeup, available schematic from the phones manual section suggest both devices could get a notched display, dual nano SIM slots and microSD slots, micro USB ports, as well as 3.5mm jacks.
