  1. ASUS no lanzará nuevos smartphones durante este año

    En un anuncio que ha sorprendido a la industria móvil, ASUS ha confirmado que no presentará nuevos teléfonos inteligentes en 2026. La compañía taiwanesa ha decidido hacer una pausa en sus líneas Zenfone y ROG Phone para replantear su estrategia en un mercado saturado y centrar sus esfuerzos de hardware en el auge de la inteligencia artificial y la computación en la nube (Fuente PCMag).

    La noticia marca un punto de inflexión para una marca que se había consolidado como la favorita de los entusiastas gracias a sus dispositivos compactos (Zenfone) y sus potentes terminales para gaming (ROG Phone). Según el comunicado oficial, esta «pausa estratégica» no significa necesariamente una retirada definitiva del mercado, sino una transición necesaria para alinear sus futuros productos con las nuevas demandas de los consumidores, quienes ahora priorizan la integración de software e IA sobre las especificaciones de hardware puro.

    A pesar de la falta de nuevos lanzamientos, ASUS aseguró que mantendrá el soporte técnico y las actualizaciones de software para los modelos actuales, como el Zenfone 11 y el ROG Phone 9. Esta decisión permitiría a la empresa redirigir sus millonarios presupuestos de investigación y desarrollo hacia sus divisiones de servidores de IA y laptops, áreas donde la compañía ha visto un crecimiento mucho más sólido y rentable en los últimos trimestres fiscales.

    Para los analistas, este movimiento es un síntoma de la creciente presión que enfrentan los fabricantes que no logran alcanzar el volumen de ventas de gigantes como Apple o Samsung. La ausencia de ASUS en las estanterías de 2026 deja un vacío importante en el segmento de los smartphones especializados, obligando a los usuarios de la marca a mirar hacia otras alternativas. Queda por ver si 2027 traerá un regreso triunfal con una propuesta disruptiva o si este es el primer paso hacia el adiós definitivo de ASUS en el mundo de la telefonía móvil.

  2. Asus zmienia kurs. W 2026 roku nie zobaczymy nowych smartfonów, priorytetem jest AI

    Tajwański producent elektroniki dokonuje radykalnej korekty swojej strategii. Podczas noworocznego spotkania zarządu potwierdzono, że w 2026 roku firma nie planuje wprowadzać na rynek nowych modeli smartfonów z Androidem.

    Zamiast kolejnych generacji Zenfone’a i ROG Phone’a, Asus przesuwa swoje zasoby inżynieryjne w stronę sztucznej inteligencji i nowej kategorii urządzeń.

    Pauza w premierach, ale nie koniec wsparcia

    Deklaracja prezesa firmy, Jonney’a Shiha, jest jasna, choć zostawia pole do interpretacji. Stwierdzenie, że Asus „nie będzie dodawać nowych modeli telefonów w przyszłości” (w kontekście najbliższej strategii), oznacza wstrzymanie ofensywy modelowej. To strategiczna pauza, wynikająca z nasycenia rynku mobilnego i poszukiwania nowych motorów wzrostu.

    Jednocześnie firma ucina spekulacje o całkowitym wyjściu z rynku („exit”). Dział mobilny pozostaje aktywny, a kluczowym zadaniem staje się obsługa obecnych użytkowników. Posiadacze Zenfone’ów i ROG Phone’ów mogą spać spokojnie – wsparcie techniczne, aktualizacje zabezpieczeń oraz serwis gwarancyjny będą kontynuowane bez zmian.

    Wielki pivot na AI

    Powodem tej decyzji jest – jak określił to prezes Shih – „zmiana paradygmatu”. Asus uznał, że dalsza walka na coraz trudniejszym rynku smartfonów jest mniej perspektywiczna niż inwestycja w nadchodzącą rewolucję AI. Zasoby, które dotychczas pochłaniało projektowanie nowych telefonów, zostaną przekierowane do działów pracujących nad:

    • Komercyjnymi komputerami PC zintegrowanymi z AI,
    • Robotyką (AI Robots),
    • Inteligentnymi okularami (AI Glasses).

    Co to oznacza dla rynku?

    Dla fanów marki to słodko-gorzka wiadomość. Z jednej strony, Asus nie znika z mapy innowacji, szukając swojej szansy w sprzęcie nowej generacji. Z drugiej – rok 2026 będzie prawdopodobnie pierwszym od lat, w którym nie zobaczymy następców cenionych serii Zenfone (kompaktowe flagowce) oraz ROG Phone (urządzenia dla graczy).

    Czy to definitywny koniec smartfonów z logo Asus? Tego nie powiedziano. Na ten moment jest to zamrożenie premier. Firma redefiniuje swoje miejsce w ekosystemie technologicznym, stawiając wszystko na kartę sztucznej inteligencji. Czy po tej transformacji znajdzie się jeszcze miejsce na telefony? Czas pokaże.

    Jeszcze nie mamy Wi-Fi 7, a ASUS już pokazał następcę. Premiera Wi-Fi 8

  3. Asus hits pause on its smartphone business

    Taiwanese PC maker Asus has been making smartphones for over a decade, but the company’s phones have never been big sellers and now it looks like Asus may be sticking a pin in its mobile ambitions and instead focusing on other areas including PCs and emerging product categories including AI, smart glasses, and robotics.

    Asus chairman Jonney Shih recently told reporters in Taiwan that the […]

  4. Honestly good, Asus are scam artists. Thought they could get away with selling the Zenfone 9 and then removing the bootloader unlock feature and lying about it for years after. I'd never buy an Asus product again.

  5. Well, my #Asus #Zenfone Ultra 11 up and died at 1.5 years, which means it's out of warranty and it died in a way I can't reset it or get data off of it. I ordered a #Pixel 10 Pro XL. I'm sad about it because I really liked the #Zenfone, but I need something reliable and Mint Mobile had the new Pixel phones for way cheaper than anything else.

  6. Asus Zenfone 12 Ultra features Snapdragon 8 Elite and a 6.78 inch 144 Hz display

    The Zenfone 12 Ultra is the latest flagship phone from Asus that’s not marketed as a gaming phone. But you could certainly use it as one if you wanted to because while it may lack features like “airtriggers” and RGB lighting, it’s a powerful phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, up to 16GB of RAM, and a 6.78 inch, 2400 x 1080 pixel OLED display with up to a 144 Hz refresh […]

  12. @RandySimons possibly, although most people I know with tablets / laptops (i.e. have other computing devices) still use a mega sized phone. is it coz they prefer the size or the lack of good options for smaller devices? 🤷

    Asus #Zenfone series used to have some smaller yet decently specced devices (gen 8/9/10) but for gen 11 they went with Ultra. Maybe there's just no market for small high-end phones.

    I had the #XperiaX which is just slightly smaller than the XA2. A delight with #SailfishOS :)

  18. How good is the battery life on my #Asus #Zenfone 11? I spent all day at #Disneyland, leaving at close. Relatives with iPhones had their batteries die around noon to mid-afternoon. Disneyland sells portable chargers everywhere. I never charged my phone once, used it all throughout the day (pretty much have to run Disneyland app), didn't use any power saving mode, etc, and when I got back in around 1:30am, I still had 55% left.

  19. Retrospective from a month with the #Zenfone 11 Ultra:

    I'm now officially a fan of the Zenfone. It hits a certain sweet spot for me between the headphone jack, UI, camera, and battery life. It's the direction #Samsung should have gone.

    I don't like the larger size more than the size of the 9/10, but it is roughly the same size of my previous Samsung Galaxy Plus, so I can definitely live with it.

    #Android #Asus

  20. I thought the wireless charging stopped working on my #Zenfone 11, but it turned out to be a 3rd party case. The charging works fine without a case or the case it came with, but not the simple clear plastic one I bought on Amazon. I have a similar style case on my #Pixel 8 and wireless charging works with it, so now I'm curious if it's a problem with the case or the Zenfone.

  21. My wife, a Samsung S24 user: "Wow, your phone has a nice camera!"

    The #Zenfone 11 Ultra camera is definitely an improvement over the Zenfone 9.

    #Android #Asus

  22. This #Zenfone 11 Ultra is roughly the same dimensions as the #Samsung S24 Ultra, which replaced the Galaxy Note. I really wasn't expecting it to be this big. By going from a Zenfone 9 to 11, I went from one of the smallest smartphones to one of the largest. 😳

    Don't get me wrong - it's an excellent phone, but sweet glory is it massive.

    #Android

  23. One neat thing about the #Asus #Zenfone 11 is that the #AI features are local to the device and work without needing an internet connection. The AI isn't a major selling point for me, personally, but I feel much better about it being native to the device.

  24. I think I'm going to begrudgingly pre-order the #Asus #Zenfone 11 after all. I'm grumpy about it, but there's no other phone on the market I'd rather have some a hardware and UX standpoint and they are promising a longer software lifecycle with it.

  25. For the most part, the #Zenfone 11 seems like a straightforward upgrade on the Zenfone 9, but it goes from 16G in the Zenfone 9 to 12G in the Zenfone 11. The Zenfone 11 has DDR5 memory where I'm pretty sure Z9 has DDR4.

    I don't normally use that much memory on my phone (usually around 6GB), and #Asus phones can support zram, so it's not a deal breaker for me. This was just the most obvious tradeoff I noticed apart from the size difference.

    #Android

  26. Replying to my 1-year-old post...

    OK. Marques Brownlee has declared that small flagship #smartphones are extinct because #ASUS seemingly killed their small #Zenfone, the last holdout.

  28. Asus goes big with the Zenfone 11 Ultra

    A decade ago smartphones with screen sizes approaching 7 inches were unusual enough that people often called then phablets. These days they’re just… phones. And that means when Asus launched the Zenfone 10 with a 5.9 inch display last year, it was considered fairly small by modern smartphone standards.
    But now one of the last companies offering a […]

  30. Should I look into getting a new phone? I've had my #iPhone6SPlus since May 2018 which is the longest I've had a phone but the problem is headphone jacks basically don't exist unless I want to buy an #Xperia or a #Zenfone but neither of them have #WiFiCalling on #ATT and the Xperias have way too weird of an aspect ratio for me. At least the #S24Ultra has a squared-off screen and 7 years of updates, but no #HeadphoneJack. Should I do two phones like I did when I got my #Lumia830?
