It had to happen: Android phone makers are Watch Leverage Onlineadopting the iPhone X's notch.
One of the first major manufacturers to do it is Asus, whose ZenFone 5 is a dead ringer for Apple's flagship, with a notch on the top bezel that hides the selfie camera, sensors, and speaker.

Its notch is a bit narrower, and its bottom bezels is a bit bigger than the one on the iPhone X (there's no fingerprint sensor there, though -- it resides on the other side of the phone).

Be that as it may, this phone will surely make at least some passers-by think you have an iPhone X, so if that floats your boat, the ZenFone 5 might be a good fit.

The pricing for the ZenFone was not released.
Asus also has a more powerful version of the device, called the ZenFone 5Z, but we didn't get to see that one during the pre-brief -- we'll update this article when we get its specs.
UPDATE: Feb. 27, 2018, 8:45 p.m. CET As expected, the ZenFone 5Z looks just like the regular ZenFone 5, but has better hardware inside -- a Snapdragon 845 processor with 6GB of RAM and 64GB of storage -- and, presumably, better performance. It'll start from $499.

It does, however, stand out by having two selfie cameras (one of which has a 20-megapixel resolution), in addition to the two cameras on the back. No word on the price for this one, either.
