ZenFone 3 Laser and ZenFone 3 Max in the Country this August
Conceived
with sophistication and affordability in mind, these two products have
outdone their previous predecessors with sophisticated design, a
world-class camera, reliable performance,
and unparalleled, lasting longevity.
Beauty and Elegance Inside Out
The ZenFone 3 Laser and Zenfone 3 Max features a 13MP camera with the latest
Sony IMX214 sensor that captures
stunning photos without any lag. The ZenFone 3 Laser in particular is
able to achieve focus in just 0.03 seconds, and its laser has an
operational range of 1.5, twice compared to other smartphones.
This
camera also has an industry-leading Low Light mode with pixel-merging
technology that captures 400%-brighter photos at night or in extreme
low-light scenes – all that without
the need for any flash.
Meanwhile,
their Backlight (Super HDR) mode can see through daytime shadow with
superb clarity, while its Super Resolution mode captures detailed images
at resolutions of up to 52MP.
The
5.5-inch ZenFone 3 Laser and 5.2-inch ZenFone 3 Max sport a
sophisticated aluminum alloy with design elements that add visual
aesthetics and an easy, comfortable grip.
Both
phones have a finely sandblasted matt surface and a gently rounded
edge, combined with a refined metallic-chamfered edge surrounding its
display.
Both
also sport the quintessential and ergonomic fingerprint sensor placed
near the top of its rear panel, allowing the index finger to naturally
rest on it. The fingerprint sensor
allows it to rapidly unlock the phone, using authentication by other
apps.
ZenFone
3 Laser is available in two attractive colors to complement even the
most-color conscious attire: glacier silver and sand gold. While the
ZenFone 3 Max is available in three
attractive colors: titanium gray, glacier silver, and sand gold.
Extreme Performance and Longevity
The
ZenFone 3 Laser boasts a powerful Snapdragon 430 octa-core processor,
4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage that will be able to satisfy everyone’s
entertainment needs, that is also
backed with one of the loudest and clearest speakers in its class
because of the magnets used in its voice coils that have an extremely
strong magnetic flux.
Meanwhile,
the ZenFone 3 Max offers longevity like no other with its 4130mAh
battery that provides up to 30 days of standby time, and the ability to
turn into a power bank with reverse-charging
capabilities offering high-speed charging of other devices, it is also
equipped with a powerful Quad-Core 64 bit processor running at 1.25Ghz
complimented with a Mali T720 graphics processor.
An Incredible Smartphone Innovation
From
the birth of ZenFone 2 Laser and ZenFone Max that pushed innovation to
deliver an unparalleled smartphone experience, ASUS has outdone itself
once more with a rebirth in the
form of the ZenFone 3 Laser and ZenFone 3 Max which offers the best of
both worlds in terms of design and performance, without a doubt –
innovation is, and will always be, the middle name of ASUS.
