Update: The Asus Zenfone 3 release date is imminent, but first it just got upgraded with a Snapdragon 821 processor. It's the first phone to with the new chip and is combined with another specs rarity: 6GB of RAM. Here's how it performs so far.

Zenfone 3 Deluxe represents a major upgrade to Asus' spelling-challenged smartphone series with a component design and specs you won't find on any other Android today.

The phone is making a name for itself with 6GB of RAM. All but one of the best phones  in 2016 so far top out at just 4GB of RAM. You should be able to open more apps on its 5.7-inch display without slowdown.

Yes, the ZTE Axon 7 has a 6GB of RAM variant, but it wasn't shown off at its Beijing launch event next to its still-very-promising 4GB version. I could test the Asus  Zenfone 3 at Computex 2016.

It also debuts the Snapdragon 821 processor, starts with 64GB of internal storage (going up to 256GB) and includes a 23MP camera, all of which are impressive numbers on paper. It'll just miss Android  Nougat, but does run Android 6.0 Marshmallow .

But do these Asus Zenfone 3 Deluxe specs compute into anything meaningful? The Taiwanese release date is set for the end of July, while the US release date isn't for several weeks, according to Asus. So I went hands on with the forthcoming phone while in Taipei, Taiwan to determine more in the meantime.

Design

The Asus Zenfone 3 Deluxe is being touted as the world's first full-metal unibody phone with an invisible antenna design, and that's technically true.

It beats Apple's iPhone 7, rumored to be anti-antenna lines too, by three months, and the new LG G5  has a gap meant for modular add-ons; it isn't really unibody. Samsung Galaxy S7  is made of glass.

That leaves the Zenfone 3 Deluxe to steal some thunder with a sleek look of its own. I like the full-metal body and the seamless unibody design, and the invisible antenna lines are a nice perk.

What's more important to me than any of that, though, is the fact that the phone does away with the plastic that made last year's Zenfone 2 design downright unlikable. I dug the specs and the software customization, but it felt cheap. Like, not even good plastic. This new design begins to right that wrong. 

 Thank you for reading.
