CES 2015 is kicking off with several big announcements, and the latest one is from ASUS. The ASUS Zenfone 2 is ASUS’ flagship phone for 2015 and it features some excellent specs. The display is of the IPS variety and is sized at 5.5-inches with a 1080p resolution. The design of the phone utilizes brushed metal and has a rounded back, similar to the design of the HTC One (M8). The ZenFone 2 is the first phone anywhere to be equipped with 4GB of dual-channel RAM (on the high-end model). The other specifications & details of ZenFone 2 are mentioned below.
ASUS ZenFone 2 Features & Specs:
The Asus ZenFone 2 is one of the very pleasant surprises unveiled at CES 2015. Asus really outdid itself in its signature value-for-money territory, outing a phone with awesome features. It’s a definite competitor to offerings from the likes of HTC, Samsung, and LG at an amazing price. Here are some specifications of Asus Zenphone 2 Smart Phone.
ASUS ZenFone 2 Specifications Review:
- 4GB of dual-channel RAM
- Non-removable Li-Po 3000 mAh battery

- The phone is impressively styled, with a brushed metal body that tapers to just 3.9mm on the edges.

ASUS ZenFone 2 Design: Luxurious, ultra-thin Ergonomic Arc design
ASUS ZenFone 2 has a stunning, all-new design employing iconic ASUS design elements that echo the spirit of Zen, with a luxurious brushed metal body that tapers to just 3.9mm on the edges, not unlike the Moto X. The metal body is reminiscent of an HTC design, but the rear-mounted power and volume buttons look more like an LG affectation. That said, the textured metal is similar to ASUS’ own high-end tablets. There’s no denying that the ZenFone 2 is a looker.
ASUS ZenFone 2 Camera:
The camera in the Zenfone 2 is a big deal for ASUS. It’s a 13-megapixel sensor that’s paired with an f/2.0 aperture and pixel-merging technology for significant improvements in low-light performance. ASUS also says that it has the best HDR out there, but we’ll have to test it out before we can believe that. On the front-facing side, we can find a 5-Megapixel camera.
Asus also made it clear over and over again that its PixelMaster software is available with both cams and offers goodies such as a low light shooting mode that can supposedly snap photos that are up to 400% brighter, though the digital noise at this level will likely be pretty visible, too.
ASUS ZenFone 2 Mobile Display:
- ZenFone 2 has an incredibly sharp and vivid 5.5-inch Full HD IPS display with a 403ppi pixel density and a wide 178-degree viewing angle, ensuring lifelike photos and videos and great-looking apps.
- ASUS TruVivid technology enhances display performance even more with bright, brilliant colors. The display has an ultra-narrow 3.3mm bezel, giving ZenFone 2 a remarkable 72% screen-to-body ratio for a maximized viewing experience.
- An anti-fingerprint coating reduces friction by 30%, giving a luxuriously-smooth feel to touch gestures.
ASUS ZenFone 2 Mobile Processor and Memory:
- ASUS ZenFone 2 is powered by an up to 2.3GHz 64-bit Intel Atom processor Z3580 and has 4GB RAM to deliver up to seven times (7X)1 faster gaming performance than its predecessor.
- ZenFone 2 has built-in 4G/LTE connectivity for blazingly-fast data speeds of up to 150Mbit/s plus 802.11ac Wi-Fi, ensuring stutter-free streaming of video and music as well as a smooth all-round mobile experience.
- Dual-SIM capacity with Dual Active technology makes ZenFone 2 the perfect travel or business companion, allowing users to have two active phone lines on their device so they can keep in touch from anywhere.
ASUS ZenFone 2 Battery:
With the ZenFone 2 comes a hearty 3,000 mAh Li-Po unit with support for fast charging tech that will allow you to restore as much as 60% of the total capacity in as little as 39 minutes. This capacity, coupled with the frugal 1080p display would likely mean about two days of normal usage on a charge, but we will run our own tests if we get our paws on the ZenFone 2, and confirm.
PRICE:
ASUS has priced the Zenfone 2 at $199 off-contract and it will be available in March with five different color options.
Software:
Speaking of software, the ZenFone 2 is running Lollipop. That’s the good news – it’s also running an updated version of ASUS ZenUI software layer. ZenUI has many great new features — including ZenMotion, SnapView, Trend Micro security and ZenUI Instant Updates — that enhance usability; ensure security and privacy.
ASUS ZenFone 2 Mobile Colours:
ZenFone 2 is available in five unique colors that, together with the beauty and customizability of ASUS ZenUI, result in a smartphone that is truly personal, both inside and out. The ZenFone 2 color portfolio includes Osmium Black, Sheer Gold, Glacier Gray, Glamor Red and Ceramic White.

I want this phone
I waited for Yu Yureka Micromax from 25th of December till date. Just read the news that there are 3 lakh registrations and Micromax is going to sell only 10,000 devices on Amazon.
Micromax just adapted a shitty way of creating demand of its devices just as Xiomi and Flipart are doing.
Shame on Micromax that it has started losing its customers by doing this. I’m really unhappy with Micromax.
Very Good ,Thanks For Asus
