The Asus ZenFone 3 Zoom was announced last month and now it is ready to be sold worldwide. This smartphone is yet another model from the ZenFone series which has become one of the most popular Android option for midrange lovers. Asus has been keen in creating smartphones that are not only priced well but also equipped with competitive specs.
Asus ZenFone 3 Zoom Specs
Being a camera-centric smartphone, the ZenFone 3 Zoom has a dual 12 MP rear camera, Dual Pixel autofocus, 4K video capture and 2.3x optical zoom. It also packs a serious amount of power with its 5000 mAh battery. On top of that, the ZenFone 3 Zoom is also equipped with sufficient memory comprised of 4 GB RAM and up to 128 GB worth of native storage. A microSD slot is also present for storage expansion.
Other specs details of the ZenFone 3 Zoom include a 5.5 inch 1080p display, fingerprint scanner, and a 13 MP front camera. Nevertheless, for a competitively-priced smartphone, the ZenFone 3 Zoom has to have some minor issues such as its last-season operating system and its non-flagship level processor. Take note that the Asus ZenFone 3 Zoom will run Android Marshmallow from the box, but there's nothing to worry though as it is Nougat-eligible so an update will also arrive in the coming months. Moreover, this Asus phone is powered by a Snapdragon 625 processor which is a sufficient chip for an Android phone, just not as powerful as what you can find on flagship Samsung phones.
Asus ZenFone 3 Zoom Availability And Price
As per Phone Arena, the ZenFone 3 Zoom is already available in Taiwan for around $489 for the unlocked version. The US on the other hand will be getting it within this quarter for a tempting price of $399. So far the ZenFone 3 Zoom is one of the best Android phones on the market, especially when talking about cameras. Dual-cam systems are typically a feature that's only found in expensive phones. For a $399 Android, the ZenFone 3 Zoom is practically a steal deal.
