The ZenFone Max is where ASUS said this – “HEY, let’s make a smartphone with the biggest battery capacity ever!” – and of course I’m paraphrasing just a little here. ASUS did come out with a new smartphone with a huge battery, and also manage to get some decent hardware into it, all nicely wrapped with an unbelievably affordable price.
ASUS did just that by putting a humongous 5,000mAh battery – and I’m not joking, that’s nearly twice as much as my current smartphone – and that got me through my day easily. The ZenFone Max that we’re getting in Malaysia is the ZC550KL, and has specs as listed below.

| Spec | Value |
| Chipset | Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 |
| CPU | Quad-core 1.2GHz |
| GPU | Adreno 306 |
| RAM | 2GB LPDDR3 |
| Storage | 16GB; microSD expandable up to 64GB |
| Dual SIM? | Yes |
| Screen | 5.5-inch 720p IPS display |
| Camera | 13MP rear-facing camera with laser auto-focus; 5MP front-facing camera |
| Battery | 5000mAh! |
Sure, this phone isn’t the smallest or the lightest. With such a big battery, there are surely some compromise (at least with today’s technology), and it comes in the dimension of 77.5x156x10.55 milimeters, and weighs at 202 grams with the much-desired battery in it.
On the ASUS’s product specification page for the ZenFone Max however, it states that OTG cable is included, so I presume that this image that they sent to us is for you to do humanity a favour!
One more thing – OTG cables can be used for other things besides charging other people’s phones – more on in the future.
Hey, it only costs RM899 for this smartphone with 5,000mAh battery. Greatest deal ever? I think yes!
Overkill battery capacity with the lowest price!
