Abstract: As you would have guessed by Its name, the ZenFone Zoom has a camera system with a 3x optical zoom, in fact, having a thickness of only 11.95 mm, it's the world's slimmest smartphone with 3x optical zoom. This optical zoom system is made out of a 10-eleme...
Samsung Galaxy S7 edge easily wins the Zenfone Zoom as a smartphone, but for S$1098, it ought to. The ASUS Zenfone Zoom is priced a mere S$659 (the 128GB variant sells for S$729), but the hardware specs are comparable to the S7 edge: 4GB RAM, runs on 2.5G...

Abstract: ASUS has been trying to make a mark in the US phone market for years, first with its hit-or-miss Padfone line and more recently with the budget-friendly ZenFone 2 . Then, for reasons nearly beyond comprehension, the company decided to shoehorn a zoom lens...
Cameracentric design with dedicated controls, Ample storage, Optical zoom, Powerful innards, Charges in a jiffy
Cluttered interface that's full of bloatware, Camera performance doesn't match rivals, Poor battery life
ASUS showcased the ZenFone Zoom back at CES 2015, but finally released the smartphone this year. The device is a bold effort from the Taiwanese company, as unlike its previous offerings which were targeting the voluminous budget and mid-range segments, it...
Abstract: “The ZenFone Zoom comes with serious camera hardware, but can it deliver? Let's find out”After establishing the ZenFone series as a solid choice for the masses, it seems that the Taiwanese brand ASUS is now targeting niche segments. The ZenFone 2 (review...

Practical build quality with premium materials, Cameracentric ergonomics, Innovative camera zoom design
Lackluster photo and video output, Mediocre battery life for multimedia and content creation, Large footprint for medium sized screen
This is always painful. We want to reward daring design. We want to celebrate when companies take risks. The ZenFone Zoom is an incredible feat of camera design, but the crown jewel feature of this phone in many ways compromises the camera that the zo...
A bit thick / hefty, No Android 6.0 (yet), Camera struggles in low light with current firmware, Auto mode not great
We need to give ASUS some kudos for stepping outside the box and offering something that's truly unique in the smartphone space. We evaluate a plethora of smartphones year in and year out, and increasingly, there's very little that clearly differentiates...
Camera The Zoom mostly delivers on its promise of a topnotch camera, Battery life The 3000mAh battery is goodnotgreat in terms of raw capacity, but OS optimizations make charging an every other day activity, Performance The 64bit Intel SoC with 4GB of RAM
Display It's big, it looks nice and gets brighter than cheaper ZenFone variants, but we're rapidly approaching a point where 1080p on 5.5” canvas is budget quality
ASUS has made a nice phone here and to be perfectly honest I was operating under the assumption that it was far more expensive when I began testing it out. What a pleasant surprise to see it is more along the high-midrange, which helps to justify some of...
