When is the right time to change your phone? I feel it is
when your current phone becomes too slow that you feel like it is from the Stone
Age and you need to wait for a few life times before it opens the app that you
touched and have stared at since. Worse is when you start getting a call in the
midst of your app launch.
What were these “smart phones” invented for? To help you
multitask, to help stay in touch with your emails, texts, tweets and statuses
on various other platforms, in nutshell to help you stay connected, to help you
do basic things with your phone that otherwise would require you to find a
laptop with a decent internet connection.
If I am out there to find a new phone for myself which can
give me a satisfactory performance or better, I would have my apprehensions.
These days there are just too many brands which are boasting of great
experience, I would steer clear of such claims and do my own research before I
choose my next phone. One phone which
stands out in comparison and has received acclaim from my peers is ASUS Zenfone2.
Why, I think, this could be a game changer in redefining
what a customer should expect from his / her smart phone is because of the
amazing specification and features this phone boasts of. Here are top 5 –
1.
4 GB LPDDR3 RAM – that is 8 times more RAM
compared to what I had in first desktop. For a layman, that means that you get
about 4 times clock frequency and as many times data transfer rate which
translates into great performance of your apps.
2.
4G Support – 4 G is here already and a few other
phones have the support built-in for 4G networks. Telecom providers are providing it almost at
the same cost as 3G data services so why not use it while it is cheap (although
I feel it would anyway remain affordable even after all phones would have it). A
new phone should enable you to do something that your current phone did not. So
4G it is.
3.
Better Visual Experience – ASUS Zenfone2 has a
5.5 inch screen in a traditional body of a 5 inch phone. That means it would
fit in your pocket same as a 5 inch phone but give you much better visual
experience.
4.
Intuitive Rear Controls for Selfie generation –
Everywhere you go, you can find people clicking selfies with phone which were
not specifically made for it. Here is a phone with strategically placed
controls for that perfect selfie.
5.
This phone has many features and great
specifications but I would go to the Achilles Heel of many other smart phones
which this particular phone tries to cover as much as possible, its battery.
With 3000 mAH Li-polymer batter it promises your longer battery. A longer
battery life has been a criterion for selection of phone since time immemorial.
Fast charging feature available with this phone is cherry on top.
I could go buy this phone for many logical reasons like many
of us but I would buy this one just because of the emotional connection that
ASUS has with my computer experience. It was an ASUS chipset which hosted all
other components for my first desktop. It changed my life then, I am sure it
would change it again with ASUS Zenfone2.
