My Favorite Phone - Asus Zenfone2

One person can have many reasons for liking one or the other new mobile devices. To judge which is my favorite device is going to change from time to time. As the technology is changing faster than the time, means we will have more advanced device with much higher capabilities.

Its hard to say which is my favorite device as it keeps changing with time & technology. After thinking through it hard enough I have chosen one - the chosen one. Well before I reveal the name I thought its better to note down the logical reasons for my choice. So I will divide it in two parts one was the must things which I won't compromise on for my own reasons.


Criteria : Must YESes for me

  1. It should be based on Android. Well the simple reason for me is that I am used to Android and it has the highest number applications available in any of the play stores as compared to that of other Operating Systems.
  2. Both Front & Rear Camera. Its must for me for the obvious reason that I am very social in different social media channels like instagram, twitter, etc. So for me Selfie is a necessity & not luxury. So both the cameras are basic needs.
  3. Higher resolution device close to 1080p resolution. The main reason for this was I like watching video & playing games in mobile phones. So looks and feel of the display has to be good.
  4. Higher RAM. Many of the devices will show good space and processor but are low in RAM. So one have a frequent Lags and slowness in device. For me this is to be avoided at all the cost. I just hate any ANR or Force Close dialogs , ahhh.... I mean any application crashes or activity getting freezed.
My Choice: My Favourite Phone : ASUS Zenfone 2


Well I will list the reasons why it should be in anyone's best list based on parameters which made me love Zenfone 2. 

  • 4 GB RAM. Once I heard it, I was like WOW. No more slow devices. No more applications saying that they will crash (ANRs or Force Closes) soon. Typically most of the other devices fulfilling my criteria has either 1 GB , 2GB and few with 3 GB RAM. For me 4GB RAM was a key differentiation.
    • Games were faster and very responsive.
    • Applications were fast & smooth. Literally No ANRs
    • Touch & responsiveness gave a very nice feeling & experience.

  • Quad Core Atom 2.3 GHz processor is well matched with higher RAM. This means that neither the performance of Chipset or RAM is going to be a bottleneck. I being a power user, aka heavy user, this fulfills my need as a power user.

  • 13 MP Rear Camera & 5 MP Front Camera, meant that I will have much more clear and beautiful pictures. The pictures and selfie taken can be shared to social medias like Instagram. Camera is fairly simple & easy to use with all the features like White Balance, 1080 P Video Capture, etc. In short, great pictures with nice quality and ease paired with a good response time.

  • Good display with 5.5 inch Display with resolution of 1080 * 1920 pixels.This gives good pictures taken more clearer and sharper. Corning Gorilla Glass adds more to protect the display by making it scratch free.

  • I loved the design of flip cover. So beautiful & amazing. It made me recall some classic phones like Razer with those watches. I simply love this design.


  • Dual SIM - I have two mobile numbers and I wanted to keep both while migrating from Moto G to ASUS Zenphone 2. It adds an extra comfort to stay the same instead of carrying to mobile devices.

  • Affordable. Many of times a good device with a good specs are heavily priced. But that's not the case with  ASUS Zenfone 2.

In simple words, if you are a power user who is social and expects phone to work well and in a very responsive way with good pictures and gaming performance, #Myzenfone2 is definitely the best pick in the present lot of devices.
