I hope this means the Zenfone 8 will finally come down in price, it's been almost a year since launch and even used ones still only go for like $80 less than MSRP. I'd really like a phone that actually fits in my hand but there's no way I'm paying more than $500 for a phone ever again after my recent experiences.

The body is not smaller on s22. It slightly smaller lengthwise, but wider. If you do the maths, Zenfone has lesser area (10138 mm²) compared to s22 (10307 mm²). And the selling price in India has a difference of around $376 dollars. Not to mention s22 comes with One UI crapware. So yeah, maybe prefer s22 where the price difference is more reasonable.

I care about length not width, phones are getting too long and too narrow. So shorter body is a plus in my book, especially with more screen. I don't live in India, I live in Europe. And I am fine with the price, especially given the support. OneUI is a plus in my book, not a minus.
