ASUS ZenFone Won Over 627 Awards Globally!
"ASUS ZenFone 2 is a good buy if you’re looking to change your old smartphone. The strengths
of the model: a powerful processor from Intel; 4GB of RAM, a big screen with Full HD resolution,
great 13-megapixel rear camera (5-megapixel front for panoramic seles); support two SIM
cards and networks up to 4G; wide navigation capabilities; and the Android (Lollipop) OS. This
wonderful ASUS ZenFone 2 gets our Editor’s Choice award."
"The new ZenFone 2 boasts excellent specs at an aordable price."
"What happens when you forgot some of the fanciest smartphone bells and whistles, such as
ultra-high-resolution display and curved screens? You get ASUS ZenFone 2 a powerful, high-
quality smartphone that’s half the price. ASUS ZenFone 2: good Full HD resolution display;
powerful processor from Intel; 4GB of RAM; broad wireless connectivity; and nice ASUS ZenUI
interface. We award ASUS ZenFone 2 our Editor’s Choice accolade."

a very great price."

"The positives of the ASUS ZenFone 2 Laser far outweigh the negatives, and if value for money is
what you are looking for, this device is certainly a very compelling option."
Tom's Guide Top Pick for CES 2015, USA - 01/2015
"The ASUS ZenFone 2 packs an elegant exterior and a beautiful display, but what's inside is even
more exciting."
"The ZenFone is back for a second run, bigger and better than ever."
"For photography, ASUS ZenFone 2 Laser
stands on the shoulders of giants. The
endurance of its 2400mAh battery is
amazing. In terms of performance, it deals
with the everyday stu without delay. Add to
this a striking design, excellent screen and
updated Android 5.0 interface — it’s really
an attractive price."

the hardware and software points of view

product."

HD Blog, Italy - 10/2015
"ZenFone Sele is quite similar to ZenFone
2 (ZE551ML), with a 13MP front camera. It
performs well in all areas. In low light, the
ZenFone is one of the best and reveals
detail without electronic noise to spoil the
party. It easily surpasses the iPhone 6 Plus
and Galaxy S6."
"ZenFone Sele’s front camera has a
wide-angle lens, [Real Tone] ash, and 13
megapixels – and these give the Sele an
edge against the iPhone 6 Plus and LG G4
when it comes to taking seles."

with tough hardware that allows you to run
multiple apps and games. In this price range,
only ASUS gives the option of 4GB RAM
capacity, which is enough to give you lag-free
performance."
"The laser-assisted focusing mechanism
which gives the device its name is really
quick and combined with lightning-fast
shutter response, the ZenFone 2 Laser has
a very fast camera."
PC Quest, India - 09/2015
Hindu Business Line, India - 09/2015
"ASUS ZenFone 2 Laser is an interesting
device that incorporates a laser sensor for
focus. Based on the price you can nd it
online it’s a smartphone with an excellent
quality/price ratio. This ASUS product is a
best buy!"
"The brand-new laser auto focus feature
greatly reduces blurring and enhances
image stabilisation, and the Low Light
mode employs pixel-merging technology to
capture up to 400%-brighter photos at night
or in lowlight scenes — all without the need
for a ash."
Tutto Android, Italy - 10/2015
The Financial Express, India - 10/2015
