US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat.

Asus ZenFone 8 Flip leak reveals Flip Camera, vanilla ZenFone 8 gets punch-hole camera

The Asus ZenFone 8 series is launching on May 12 as a saner iteration of the ROG Phone 5. While numerous leaks and rumours have predicted a lot of things, today’s leak reveals the official design renders of the ZenFone 8 series. There will be a ZenFone 8 Flip and a ZenFone 8, both of them having a varying set of specifications.

The ZenFone 8 Flip appears to be the best of what Asus thinks is possible for a non-gaming flagship phone. It retains the Flip Camera arrangement from last year’s ZenFone 7. The ZenFone 8 is the new model here with a conventional camera arrangement. This one appears to be the rumoured ZenFone 8 Mini, but Asus seems to have dropped the Mini moniker.

The leaked renders come courtesy of 91Mobiles and showcase the two models in their full glory. The ZenFone 8 Flip appears to be the more expensive of the two, retaining the complex Flip Camera arrangement from the last two years. This makes for a fullscreen display experience with no interruptions. This will be a 6.67-inch 1080p AMOLED display with 90Hz refresh rate.

The rear of the ZenFone 8 Flip remains unchanged from the older model, save for the new logo arrangement. The cameras on the Flip section consist of a 64-megapixel sensor for the main camera, an 8-megapixel sensor for the ultra-wide, and a 12-megapixel macro camera. The latter is a first for any smartphone.

The Flip is also said to get the Snapdragon 888 chipset paired with up to 8GB RAM and 256GB storage. The phone relies on a 5000mAh battery and uses a 30W fast charging solution.

The vanilla ZenFone 8 has a smaller footprint, owing to its “Mini” ambitions. The renders reveal a conventional design with a 5.9-inch 1080p display having a punch-hole cutout for the camera. Due to the absence of the Flip Camera, the rear of the ZenFone 8 is new for an Asus smartphone, but seems no different from Xiaomi, Samsung, Huawei or any other Android phone. There’s a rectangular camera hump holding two cameras inside.

The internals are similar to the ZenFone 8 Flip, save for the battery capacity. Instead of the 5000mAh battery, the ZenFone 8 will have a smaller 4000mAh battery with support 30W fast charging. RAM options are given up to 8GB and you can get up to 256GB storage. The camera setup drops the ultra-wide camera but retains the 12-megapixel macro camera.
