New Zenfones from Asus Emphasize Battery Life and Pics, Not Screens

September 2, 2015 By Ellen Smith

Rather than join everyone in bumping up screen resolutions, Asus is giving users what they really need: More battery life and better photos. At the IFA trade show, the electronics company announced a family of new Zenfones, including the Zenfone 2 Deluxe, Zenfone Max, Zenfone Selfie, Zenfone Zoom and Zenfone 2 Laser.

As previously detailed, the Zenfone Max is all about long-lasting battery life. With a 5,000 milliamp-hour (mAh) battery, it’s got one of the highest-capacity batteries of any smartphone.

Aside from its big battery, the Max is pretty much an entry-level Android smartphone with a 5.5-inch IPS display with an 1,280 x 720 resolution (HD) — mediocre by the standards of today’s flagships. Unlike the Zenfone 2, which is powered by an Intel Atom processor and 4GB of RAM, the Max is powered by a 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 quad-core processor and 2GB of RAM.

It comes with 8GB or 16GB of internal storage, has a microSD card slot for expanding the storage up to 128GB, and two micro SIM card slots.

On the back is a 13-megapixel camera with dual-LED flash and on the front is a 5-megapixel camera.

The Zenfone 2 Deluxe is a variant on the well-reviewed Zenfone 2. The internal specs are identical, save for the back cover, which has a prismatic pattern finish to it. It’s more eye-catching, for sure.

The Zenfone 2 Laser is another variant of the Zenfone 2. Its marquee feature is the pill-shaped laser autofocus sensor on the back that helps the 13-megapixel camera achieve autofocus in 0.2 seconds.

Selfie junkies will dig the Zenfone Selfie. Both the front and back of the phone have a 13-megapixel camera, each with LED flashes and laser autofocus. Think of it as Asus’ version of the HTC Desire Eye. And what selfie-focused phone would be complete without a beauty mode to apply “magical glamour”?

The Zenfone Zoom, on the other hand, has an enhanced 3x optical zoom on the camera’s 13-megapixel main camera. Not only that, but the camera has a macro focusing mode that lets you get as close as 2 inches in front of a subject.

Announced at CES, the Zoom has a powerful 2.3GHz Intel Atom quad-core processor, 2GB or 4GB of RAM and comes in 16GB, 32GB, 64GB and 128GB storage configurations. Like almost all ZenFones, it has a microSD card slot for storage expansion up to 64GB.
