Asus has presented the new Asus Zenfone Live, a phone designed for those who want a simple device but are not satisfied with a mediocre photographic section. The device mounts a 5 megapixel front camera for selfies. So far normal. What is striking is that it offers an f / 2.2 lens with autofocus and LED flash, something unusual. The rest of the characteristics are more like those of any other similar terminal of the competition. This model mounts a five-inch screen, a quad-core processor (with 2 GB of RAM) or a 2,560 mAh battery. It will hit the market in several colors: gold, navy blue and rose gold. The date and price are still a mystery.
Asus returns to the fray with the Zenfone Live. As can be seen in the images, its design is simple and elegant. It is built in polycarbonate in various colors, all of them seek to seduce a more youthful audience. This is not too thick or heavy a phone. Its exact measurements are 141.2 x 71.74 x 7.95 millimeters and its weight is only 120 grams, so it will be quite comfortable to transport. The screen of the Asus Zenfone Live has a size of 5 inches and an HD resolution (1,280 x 720 pixels). In addition, a blue filter has been added to make it more comfortable for the eyes.
Selfie camera to match
Inside the new device we are going to find a Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor, a quad-core chip accompanied by a 2 GB RAM. It is not a set that stands out for its power. In any case, it will help us to make use of some of the most popular applications on Google Play. It also offers an internal storage capacity of 16 or 32 GB (expandable by using microSD-type cards). As we say, it is precisely in the photographic section where the Asus Zenfone Live intends to make people talk. Its main camera has a 13-megapixel resolution, f / 2.0 aperture and LED flash. For its part, the front camera offers a resolution of 5 megapixels with f / 2.2 lens, autofocus and LED flash.These are unusual features in phones of this type. To all this must be added a real-time beauty mode, which allows captures to be shared through the BeautyLive app.
