The selfie is such a huge giảm giá that the Oxford Dictionary crowned it the 2013 word of the year. điện thoại cảm ứng thông minh manufacturers have realised the importance of the front camera and have sầu since launched a number of products aimed at winning over obsessed buyers, with the Micromax Canvas Selfie (reviews | Pictures) và InFocus M530 (đánh giá | Pictures) being notable recent attempts.
Today"s selfie-centric smartphone comes from Hãng Asus, in the khung of the Rs. 17,999 ZenFone Selfie. Featuring the same laser autofocus system we saw in action in the Asus ZenFone 2 Laser (Review | Pictures), the Selfie goes a bit further with an improved front camera và specifications sheet. Does it offer enough khổng lồ entice the self-obsessed shooter? We find out.
Look và feelThe Hãng Asus ZenFone Selfie is based on the Asus ZenFone 2, và has the same general look & feel. The distinct shape, the concentric circle pattern on the chin, the volume rocker on the rear, & the overall styling are all maintained, making this phone unmistakably part of the series. It"s most similar to lớn the ZenFone 2 Laser in that it features the laser autofocus system on the rear as well.
The only real differences are that the Selfie comes in its own quality colours, và the front camera lens is naturally và noticeably larger. It"s positionedfront and centre, with the flash & earpiece on either side. This phone also usesa hybrid-SIM slot, which means that one SIM slot doubles up as the slot for expandable storage forcing you khổng lồ choose one or the other. As always, we find this arrangement lớn be unnecessarily limiting.
The screen of the Asus ZenFone Selfie is a 5.5-inch 1080x1920 pixel affair, & is sharp, bright & suitably detailed. Viewing angles, sunlight legibility & colour reproduction are all excellent as well. Like the ZenFone 2 laze, the Hãng Asus ZenFone Selfie is a large phone, & can arguably be classified as a phablet due lớn its hefty dimensions và screen.
Specifications và SoftwareThe Hãng Asus ZenFone Selfie uses a Qualcomilimet Snapdragon 615 SoC, which is comtháng in sub-Rs. 15,000 devices. The Reviews unit sent to us came with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. There is also a Rs. 15,999 variant of the ZenFone Selfie which comes with 2GB of RAM & 16GB of internal storage. This sounds expensive when you consider that similarly-specified devices such as the Yu Yureka Plus are available for much less, but Hãng Asus is charging a premium for its camera công nghệ here.
Other specifications include 4G compatibility on both SIMs, Corning Gorilla Glass 4 protection, support for up to 64GB microSD cards, and a 3000mAh battery. While the device is far from top-spec, it"s certainly more than capable of handling most day-to-day smartphone tasks with comfort.
The ZenFone Selfie sticks to lớn Asus" tried & tested software formula, with the ZenUI custom overlay on top of Android Lollipop. It remains much the same as before, with enough customisability & functional operability to lớn keep most people satisfied.
As is also the usual case with Hãng Asus devices, the ZenFone Selfie comes loaded with bloatware & Asus tools. The third-các buổi tiệc nhỏ apps can be removed, but Hãng Asus apps và services can only be disabled. While a lot of these apps might be useful, they vì chưng make for far too much clutter và this only looks messy on an interface that is already unattractive sầu in our opinion. All of these apps also need constant updates, which might take a toll on your data plan. However, this doesn"t really affect performance in any way.

You"re unlikely khổng lồ use the front camera for anything other than selfies, so we limited our testing to just that. Pictures are sharp, detailed và vibrant, with accurate colour reproduction and good low-light performance. Essentially, the front camera has the same flaws as the rear camera, with wash-out và White saturation issues. However, for a camera that is likely to be pointed only at people standing very cđại bại to it, it"s absolutely brilliant. The front flash is a huge benefit as well.
The camera tiện ích is the same as the one on the ZenFone 2 tia laze, và is generally well-designed.

The 3GB of RAM also helps a fair bit, and keeps the device running smoothly. The interface runs flawlessly, and apps and games load và run without any trouble.

Battery life is good as well. The Asus ZenFone Selfie ran for 11 hours, 28 minutes in our video loop thử nghiệm. Although this is a fair bit lower than the figure we got from the Hãng Asus ZenFone 2 laze, it"s justified when you consider that this device is slightly more powerful and has a higher resolution screen. You can still get a day"s use out of it. The Selfie also performed well in terms of gọi chất lượng, signal strength and sound performance from the speaker.
VerdictThe Asus ZenFone Selfie is a (relatively) inexpensive, reliable điện thoại thông minh with respectable performance & decent software.

It also looks & feels good, and Asus has enough brand recognition now khổng lồ make it a force in the market.
