Asus Zenfone 2 - THE BIG REVIEW

By -

This year at CES 2015, Asus has launched the second iteration of its ZenFone series, unveiling the ZenFone 2. Lets have a look at the review of this new exciting smartphone.

PROCESSOR
Asus has a very enviable history of powerful Intel processors. The Zenfone 2 features a LTE-enabled Intel Atom Z3580 processor with four cores that can reach frequencies of up to 2.33 GHz, and a PowerVR G6430 GPU with OpenGL 3.0 support. This processor is proven to be both fast and frugal, so you won't have any issues running the latest and greatest Android software on the ZenFone 2, including heavy 3D games.

DISPLAY
The Asus Zenfone 2 has a Gorilla Glass 3-protected, 5.5-inch panel display with a flagship-standard resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, returning an excellent 403 pixels per inch count, and offering 400 nits of brightness. The ZenFone 2 will come in Osmium Black, Sheer Gold, Glacier Gray, Glamor Red and Ceramic White colours.

CAMERA
The Zenfone 2 has a 13-megapixel camera with 5 element, f/2.0 aperture lens, complemented by a dual-color "Real Tone" LED flash. At the front, we're looking at a respectable, 5-megapixel selfie snapper with wide-angle (85-degree) lens, and an option to shoot selfie panoramas. The Pixelmaster software made by Asus is also available

ANDROID
This smartphone runs on Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system. What makes things more interesting is the customized Zen UI. Zen UI has a variety of new features, including ZenMotion, SnapView, Trend Micro Security and Zen UI Instant Updates. It is learnt that Asus has worked a few new tricks into the OS.

MEMORY
The ZenFone 2 starts off with 2 GB of RAM in the basic version, but the more expensive ones will come with 4 GB of RAM, making Zenfone 2 the first smartphone announced with more than 3 GB of RAM, which the native 64-bit Android support. The company has claimed seven times faster gaming performance than the previous ZenFone edition.

BATTERY
The smartphone has a 3000 mAh battery which is quite optimum for 1080p display. It will allow you to restore as much as 60% of the total capacity in as little as 39 minutes.

PRICE
The smartphone is expected to be priced at a good Rs.12,000  for the basic 2 GB RAM version and a bit higher for the higher versions.

Asus Zenfone 2 is a decent phone with good specifications. The 4G LTE smartphone will have its main focus around the powerful Intel processor. It would have been better if the price of the Zenfone 2 is a little bit lower than expected in India.

Andhra Pradesh  : The hardworking boy who does all the work assigned to him sincerely.  He is taking engineering after school. Arunachal Pradesh :  The girl who sits quietly, lost in her own world, in a corner of the class. Assam :  The jovial guy who is always cheerful. And yes, he prefers tea to coffee. Bihar  : The boy who always makes the loudest noise in the absence of the teacher, but has a kind heart. Chhattisgarh :  The introverted guy who always listens to the crowd and seldom speaks. Goa :  One of the most popular guys. He parties all day and night. Gujarat :  The guy who lends his pen to others, and never forgets to take it back. He has visited the bank more than the school canteen. Haryana :  The guy who has the ability to scare juniors by his accent. People try to imitate him to get some quick popularity points.

REVOLUTIONALIZE EDUCATION           Hi Friends, this is Suman Pandit, student of Electronics Engineering, Vidyalankar Institute of Technology, Mumbai. I have an appetite for research, innovation and entrepreneurship. In the coming days, the blog on which your sight is will feature articles ranging from sports, technology, music, art, social issues, etc. The topic for today is Education.           Education is one of the most important aspects of a human being’s life. It is a process which begins from the birth of a person and continues for his lifetime. Education is responsible for the growth of many nations and communities. Our Country, India has a population of over 1.2 billion (which is the 2 nd largest in the world). It has more youths of the age 18-30 than any other country in the world. But still, it is a developing country. The main reason for this is illiteracy and unemployable graduates. In India, people are qualified, but not educated.         For education to

A Solution to solve Mumbai's Vaccination Problem - an open letter to CM of Maharashtra

Hope you are doing well..... The whole country is in deep COVID crisis. In Maharashtra too, the cases are rising. If we don't prevent this sooner, we will be in deep shortage of medical supplies and this can give rise to a big health emergency.  The only way in which we can prevent this is by Mass Vaccination of everyone in Mumbai and Maharashtra. Vaccination prevents infection of COVID and hospitalization in all age categories to a great extent. Countries like Israel and UK are a great example. As centre has not allowed Maharashtra to allow door to door vaccination, I have another idea of undertaking mass vaccination in Mumbai (can be expanded to all of Maharashtra too). After 1st May when vaccination will be opened for all adults, this will help reduce the burden on the current vaccination centres The idea- There are a lot of grounds and parks in every locality of Mumbai. They are now idle because of the current mini lockdown. There are many nurses and attendants too
