Same as the Zenfone Max Pro M1, the Max Pro M2 is backed by a large 5000mAh battery. The phone runs on the stock Android operating system and Asus has promised an Android Pie update for it by January next year.  Coming to the optics, the Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 comes equipped with a dual rear camera. It sports a 12MP primary sensor with a f/1.8 aperture, which is paired with a 5MP secondary depth sensor. It features a 13MP selfie camera and Asus says that it will enable AI scene detection and EIS for the phone with an OTA update in December. The main camera on the handset will ship with EIS support.
