Asus must be on to something. They've been shipping 1.5 million Zenfones a month in Q4 last year, the company's CEO Jonney Shih shared on stage today at CES 2015. But that's not all he shared. He has also unveiled the latest smartphone in the lineup - the Asus Zenfone 2, as well as the Zenfone Zoom - a cameraphone with 3x optical zoom lens. The Zenfone 2 The Asus Zenfone 2 is boasting a 5.5" display with thin bezels, dual-SIM/dual-active connectivity with LTE and finally, a 2.3GHz Intel Atom Z3580 chipset with the world's first 4GB RAM in a mobile phone. The Zenfone 2 has a curved back with a brushed metal finish and it tapers towards the edges to form an outer edge of only 3.9mm. The 5.5-inch IPS screen on the Zenfone 2 has a 1080p resolution, which works to a pixel density of 403ppi. A bezel of only 3.3mm makes for an immersive experience, while Gorilla Glass 3 layer makes sure it's kept as safe as possible. The Zenfone 2 has a 13MP f/2.0 camera with HDR and Manual mode, as well as a True Tone flash for flash photos with more accurate colors and skin tones. The 5MP front camera has a 85-degree field of view and can capture Selfie Panoramas with a 140-degree field of view. The smartphone has a 3,000mAh battery and with fast charging technology it should recharge up to 60% of its capacity in 39 minutes. Asus Zenphone 2 The Asus Zenfone 2 also premiers the latest version of Asus proprietary ZenUI, which would allow users to customize the feel and look of the UI by changing themes, fonts, icons, etc. Based on Android 5.0 Lollipop, the new ZenUI will also offer per-app or per-file password-controlled privacy via something called SnapView. The new Instant Updates feature will keep the ZenUI apps up to date regardless of the firmware update cycle. The Zenfone 2 will be available in Q2 2015 in Osmium Black, Sheer Gold, Glacier Gray, Glamor Red and Ceramic White. Special Transfusion and Illusion back covers will be available to radically change the style of the phone. The Asus Zenfone 2 is also a seriously affordable smartphone, costing only $199 before taxes. However that price will only by applicable for the 2GB RAM/16GB version and sounds way too low for it to not have any carrier contract involvement. The Zenfone Zoom The Asus Zenfone Zoom is built around a quite similar 5.5-inch 1080p screen and 13MP camera. However its main perk is the 3x optical zoom lens, which also has optical image stabilization. Asus Zenphone 2 The Asus Zenfone Zoom will set you back $399 before taxes. It should be available in Q2 2015. Developing... Source 1 | Source...
