Asus ZenFone 5z Review
Score: 75.3 / 100Asus ZenFone 5z is an impressive cellphone launched some years ago, in 2018, having a 6.2" screen, an 8 mega-pixels front-facing camera and an extremely powerful Octa-Core CPU running at 2.8 gigahertz.
Asus sells this phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SDM845 system chip, including a high speed 2800 megahertz Octa-Core processor and a large 8 GB of RAM memory. This cellphone comes with a 256 GB great internal storage and an SD memory slot, enough to store tons of apps, games, songs, photos and videos without having to worry about how much memory is left.
Regarding its aspect, this cellphone is mostly manufactured with Glass and Aluminum . Although the Asus ZenFone 5z is just 6.02 inches long and 2.98 inches wide, it is able to fit a a 6.2" display. The Asus ZenFone 5z has an amazing design, with a thickness of just 0.3 inches. Asus is offering the Asus ZenFone 5z in 2 color options, blue and silver. Asus has made a really good design job making the Asus ZenFone 5z weight just 5.82 oz.
This phone only has an 8 mega-pixels front facing camera. Its camera has a maximum f/1.8 aperture so it can capture impressive pictures even in dark environments. It also films videos in 3840x2160 (4K) at 60 fps, and 1920x1080 Full HD slow-motion videos up to 240 fps. In addition, this cellphone's camera also includes time lapse video.
The Asus ZenFone 5z is equipped with an awesome 1080 x 2246 6.2-inches screen, which makes everything look perfect.
The Asus ZenFone 5z counts with wi-fi connectivity (and it can be provided to other devices acting as a wireless modem or router), 4G (LTE-A) high bandwidth internet connection and also HSPA+ data connection (a slower 4G type) and 3G fast internet connection, using HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. This phone comes with two Nano SIM cards so it is able to use two different phone numbers in the same cellphone.
This cellphone uses a 3300 mAh massive Li - Ion non-removable battery that provides this phone an extremely long battery duration. An issue to consider is that this cellphone's battery is non-replaceable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to lose capacity, although with this big battery you will probably replace this cellphone before that becomes a real problem.
The Asus ZenFone 5z also features a wide range of interesting characteristics like Fingerprint Reader, Biometric facial recognition, NFC, Bluetooth (5.0 ), GPS and Radio, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.
