Asus launched three new smartphones from its Zenfone 4 Series at a special event in New Delhi on Thursday. While the series comprises the Zenfone 4, Zenfone 4 Pro, Zenfone 4 Max, Zenfone 4 Max Pro, Zenfone 4 Selfie and Zenfone 4 Selfie Pro, the company introduced only the selfie-centric models, including two versions of the Zenfone 4 Selfie and the Zenfone 4 Selfie Pro.
While it was unclear if Asus would release all the six Zenfone 4 variants in India, like it did in Taiwan and Philippines, the company indeed suggested that it was going to launch only the selfie-centric versions when it emphasised the importance on photos in the invite.
