PRICE: 9999/-

My experience with ASUS Zenfone 5:

Now here is my experience of using ASUS Zenfone 5 along with the PROS and CONS.

• Excellent image quality

ASUS Zenfone 5 comes with an 8 MP camera. The photos taken are of superb image quality which is a huge benefit for me as a blogger who wishes to take photos throughout the day for projects. Thanks to the grand HD display feature of the ASUS range.

• Stylish and slim design

The design is very sleek and slim. You can single handedly do the sms, watsapp and even check your mails. As a multitasker, I loved this feature a lot compared to the bulky smartphones available in the market which needs both hands to operate.

• Gorilla scratch-proof screen

One of the main features I loved about ASUS Zenfone 5 is the gorilla screen. As a mother I need to be wary of my toddler who wants to snatch my phone at any point of time.

The scratch proof screen of ASUS Zenfone 5 helps a lot here to avoid such ugly scratches in case of accidents.

• Built in apps 

I loved the built in apps like ‘Splendid’ which helps to adjust the brightness and contrast especially when I read at night.

I have already written about the feature Do It later that helps me a lot to organize my personal as well as professional life.

What’s next and omlet chat are other remarkable built in apps or features of ASUS Zenfone 5.

• Good battery life 

As a blogger phone is an inevitable part of my daily life. Hence battery life of my phone plays an important role especially when I am travelling for client meets or team meetings.

The battery life of ASUS Zenfone 5 can sustain for a full day if you are not into playing games.

• Smudge free layer coating 

The smudge free coating layer can help a lot to prevent the finger print marks on the screen which is really a boon for smart phone users like me. No need of wipes, screen cleaners or lotions to take off those finger prints on the mobile screen.

• High speed processor 

As a blogger I need to access heavy webpages including images, videos and graphics. Thanks to the high speed processor of ASUS Zenfone 5, it never hangs and the pages load effortlessly.

• Dual sim

The ASUS Zenfone comes with a dual sim facility which is handy for me as I use two sim cards.

• Pocket friendly price

Now here is a smartphone which is quite budget friendly while offering all the features of a top notch android phone.

I felt the audio could have been better when compared to the other smart phones in the market.

Would I recommend it?

If you are looking for a smartphone which is within budget and provides you all the amazing features of a smartphone, Asus Zenfone 5 is a must buy.

My rating: 4.5 out of 5
