ASUS is gearing up to launch its latest flagship smartphones in the ZenFone 8 series and the launch event is confirmed to be held on May 12th, 2021. According to the announcement, the smartphone launch event will kick off at 7 PM CEST (10:30 PM IST). The upcoming lineup is expected to add three new smartphones including the ZenFone 8, ZenFone 8 Pro, and the ZenFone 8 Mini. In the previous reports, these handsets were expected to launch with a flip camera setup, which was introduced with the ZenFone 6Z and also available on the ZenFone 7. However, it seems that the company is going to ditch the flip camera mechanism and arrive with a standard rear-camera setup.
