Here the ASUS ZenFone 5 not only has the ability to do more than one thing at any give time, you'll also get great performance from the 2110 mAh Lithium battery. Battery power is also extended thanks to the power-efficient antenna design.
With the 5 inch screen media, gaming, and pictures, taken with the rear 8 megapixel camera, will look stunning on the 1280 x 800 HD IPS display that gives you a ppi of 294. To keep the screen looking good ASUS has used Gorilla Glass 3, this improves scratch resistance and reduces the risk of lateral cracking. The anti-fingerprint coating also allows for use even when wearing gloves, great in colder climates or if you’re working with gloves on a daily basis.
With access to Google Play the ZenPhone 5 becomes more than a phone or camera. Apps, film, TV, and much more are just a click away and, with a memory card slot for Micro SD Cards up to 64GB, you can store music and other media without using the 8GB of on board storage. ASUS has included 5GB of Cloud Storage for their customers, this is perfect for keeping documents and such like within easy reach even if it isn’t on your device.
An attractive proposition of the ZenPhone 5 is the UI. It looks fresh and modern and although ASUS has pre-installed some apps they can be disabled if you’re not going to be using them. The ASUS gallery app brings a host of editing tools and will automatically put together video highlights from any photos that you snap with different effects and music to choose from.
A great all rounder that brings some high end specs, and access to Google play, bringing you a world of entertainment at your fingertips.
