ZenFone AR features three cameras on board. The main camera is 23-megapixels with OIS and 4K video recording support. The two cameras are meant for depth sensing and motion tracking. The phone runs Android 7.0 Nougat, and has an 8-megapixel shooter on the front.

Other specifications include 32/64/128 or 256GB of storage and a microSD card slot for memory expansion. It also has a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Asus ZenFone AR will face tough competition from the likes of Apple iPhone 7 Plus, Samsung Galaxy S8+ and HTC 11. The smartphone could be priced in the vicinity of Rs 57,999.
