Asus ZenFone 3 Review

Score: 69.6 / 100

Asus ZenFone 3 is an incredible Android cellphone released back in 2016, including a very fast 2000 megahertz Octa-Core processor, a really big 5.5-inches screen, a 16 MP back facing camera and an 8 megapixels front side camera.

The Asus ZenFone 3 is available only in color 16 777 216. The Asus ZenFone 3 is much lighter than what you expect from a cellphone of this size. The Asus ZenFone 3 body design is a combination of Glass and Aluminum . This cellphone has a gorgeous design, with a thickness of just 0.3 inches. While this cellphone just has 6.01 inches long and 3.05" wide, it is still able to fit a a 5.5" screen.

Asus designed this phone with a beautiful 5.5" display, and a 1080 x 1920 (Full HD) resolution, making everything look vivid and colorful.

Asus decided to equip this phone using a very fast Octa-Core CPU clocking at 2000 MHz, packed into a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 8953 system chip with a huge 4 GB RAM memory. A good point of this cellphone is its astonishing 64 GB internal storage and an external memory card slot, enough to install hundreds of apps and even the largest games currently available without even thinking about filling the phone.

This phone features wi-fi capability (but it can't be shared with other devices acting as a wireless modem), 4G LTE-A really quick connectivity and also HSPA+ internet connection (a lower speed 4G network) and fast 3G data connection, using HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. The Asus ZenFone 3 has 2 Micro SIM cards to be able to to work with 2 different phone lines or carriers.

This phone has two cameras, a 16 MP back camera and an 8 megapixels front side camera. This cellphone also features time lapse video.

This phone also features a wide range of cool characteristics as Fingerprint Sensor, Bluetooth (4.2 ), GPS (Global Positioning System) and FM Radio, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

The Asus ZenFone 3 has a high capacity 3000 mAh non-replaceable battery that can keep it running for many hours and even reach the end of the day without charging it at all. An issue to consider is that the Asus ZenFone 3's battery isn't removable so you can't change it when it begins to live shorter, even though with such a great capacity you will probably buy a new phone before that becomes a real problem.

It doesn't matter whether you want a social cellphone, want it to take plenty of photographs, want this cellphone for playing games or want a work cellphone, you will probably love this cellphone.
