What are the advantages of the Padfone X/S over the Padfone Infinity 2? - Asus Padfone X and S

I am tempted to try out a Padfone but I don't really see the advantages of the newer Padfone X/S over the previous Padfone Infinity 2 (New Padfone in Europe).
The difference in CPU is negligible, the X/S has a smaller tablet, the X/S phone is thicker and not as nicely built.
The only advantage I see is that the X/S might get Android 6.0.
Am I missing something?

Any ROM developer for Asus Padfone 2?

Porting Asus ZenUI to PadFone X?

Well, now that the international version of the PadFone X (PadFone S) is out in Taiwan, I think someone could give a try at porting Asus ZenUI to the PadFone X, as it doesn't have it stock.

Here is the PadFone S firmware for anyone who wants to try. Since both devices are nearly the same, I doubt it would be hard.

Xiaomi Mi Max 6.44 inch phablet - a worthy X Ultra replacement?!

http://www.techtimes.com/articles/1...ts-specs-price-options-and-configurations.htm
Just saw this article about a new 6.44 display phone from Xiaomi......could be the Z Ultra replacement we've been waiting for?!? I like the 6.44 screen size, which has been perfect for me.
if it has onscreen buttons i would be very interested
but for now - Z Ultra
I think it is the first viable replacement for the Ultra. It provide 128 GB of storage + microSDXC, which is an excellent upgrade from the Ultra 16 GB. The AnTuTu scores for similar devices indicate a decent upgrade as well: around 80,000 which is a step forward but it is possible the 652 version will be even better.
The main question is 240 DPI operation and ROM development. Items such as softbuttons doesn't worry me since it is possible to enable them with the right ROM/tweaks. LTE bands are another question but I would assume a similar setup as the C6833 more or less.
I think the Max is the first device since the Ultra that can be considered a step forward in most aspects.
There is another contender in the works, though: ZTE Nubia X8, which promises up to 4K and a Snapdragon 823. It is worth to wait for it before making any final decision. As the situation is now with Sony probably out of the game (a Z3 TC successor would have been very interesting but nothing in that regard seems to exist and they failed to replace the Z4 Tablet), it seems like the only companies providing devices of the right category are Huawei (MediaPad/Max series), Xiaomi (Max) and ZTE (Nubia).
It seems to be a choice between a Huawei MediaPad X3/M3/P9 Max (i.e. new devices replacing the 2 series), Xiaomi Max or ZTE Nubia X8. Other brands seems to be stuck at 6 inches or smaller.

The only problem with the Mi Max is there are no LTE bands for the US. I was considering one as well. I replaced my ZU with a Mediapad X2 last year and it's still a great phone even without LTE here.
Look for vernee apollo. just for 299usd and you will get 10core cpu and 6gb ram and 128gb storage and 20mp camera.

I totally second this! There's something about the 6.4 inch screen that is perfect for everyday use and for watching videos. I can't imagine myself downsizing to a 6 inch phone.....my eyes literally get strained from watching videos on a 6 inch screen
The new Zen phone 3 ultra looks interesting too.
Tech tablets review is very positive
