I was going to get an Asus device years ago but didn't I'm glad I did wait.This phone is a joy to use surprisingly fast display is good for an LCD. The cameras aren't up to par I have Pixel 2. Overall the phone has been a good experience. Asus you have done a fantastic job.
Currently my mom has a G5S Plus she certainly is not a power user but she is saying the device is laggy now. Better yet what does your mother use?
Edit
Wow forgot the Z3 is Verizon exclusive.
So between the Z3 Play or anything else.
I mentioned this in a article on AC about this phone. Regarding the non-mechanical virtual power and volume rockers what do you do if the phone freezes?
Since I skipped over the first gen Pixel and had Nexus previously. I decided getting the smaller Pixel 2 anyway on my device the very top of the display seems distorted I see bars varying in different blacks. Also I heard Google will send me mostly likely a refurbished phone which is disappointing.
