In an enthralling event called Zen Festival, ASUS launched a whole range of ZenFones. One of these is ZenFone 2 Deluxe (ZE551ML). It has the features of the previously released ZenFone 2 combined with a new multifaceted polygonal finish enhancing the Ergonomic Arc design of ZenFone 2. The brand new ZenFone 2 has an impressive 4GB RAM. The display is 5.5-inch Full HD IPS. Camera is always the highlight of ASUS Zenfones. ZenFone 2 Deluxe is equipped with 13MP/5MP PixelMaster cameras. It has the processing power of 2.3GHz 64-bit Intel ® Atom ™ processor. The device has 4G/LTE connectivity. Its 3000mAh lithium-polymer battery can be charged to 60% using the ASUS BoostMaster fast-charge technology. It also has the latest ASUS ZenUI which claims to be the world's first fully-customizable mobile interface. Trend Micro™ security software comes pre-installed on the device. It is also a DualSIM phone.
ASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe costs Rs. 22, 999. It is now available for pre-booking on Flipkart.
ASUS ZenFones have several useful quick sharing and note-taking features. I really like the note-taking features such as What's Next, SuperNote and QuickMemo. For details about all these features, you can check out my review of ASUS ZenFone 2.
