How does everyone here feel about Asus phones?

I've actually been pretty busy IRL recently, and my schedule on this has really been slipping, so, probably no more big writeups until things slow down. I'll probably move the discussion to a biweekly schedule, but no promises.
Not that much experience with Asus phone on my part, I know they use to use Intel processors until they suddenly stopped.
The new Zenfone 10 looks nice, and the ROG Phones are a bit overkill, but still very interesting spec wise.

Typing this from a ZenFone 9.
I like the physical parts of it, camera's good, but OS leaves a bit to desire. The largest gripe which I experience daily is it's horrendous pocket detection, or rather lack thereof. Until I figured out what tap-to-wake and other combos to disable, it went off in my pocket and pocket dialed my emergency contact at least five times daily. Now I've only had issues once a month or so.
I put up with it, since there's no other brand making a similarly sized phone, with good camera and 3.5mm jack.
Fwiw I also had ongoing issues with the ZF9 pocket-dialing. Ymmv of course, but I haven't had it happen ever since changing its position in my pocket from [up facing up and screen facing me] to [up facing up and screen facing away from me]. It's been at least several months since I made the change, so maybe it will help some of the people having the issue?
Thanks for the tip, unfortunately I really dislike the idea of the screen being the externally facing portion of the phone.
Seems to me like presenting the most fragile part of the phone to the outside is less than ideal.
