The ASUS Zenfone 6, Model: A601CG/Z002 is the biggest member of the ASUS Zenfone family. When I received the review phone, the first thing that I observed was the size. With a 6-inch 1280x 720 pixel IPS screen, it looks huge! But the effect and experience do matter with a large screen and, in this case, my motto is the bigger, the better. The Capacitive Touch Screen has powerful Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3 which produces a silky sensation when touched. With a 10-finger Multitouch option panel, it is quite easy to operate. The spectacular Glove Touch feature makes it absolutely smooth to operate even while wearing gloves.
ASUS, the company which is on a constant strive to unite perfection with style, has reached its pinnacle with Zenfone 6 Z002. Though the screen is large but the phone is sleek and compact and easy to hold. The device comes with a 2GB RAM and 1.6 GHz Intel Atom Z2560 Dual-Core Processor which have made it seamlessly functional with multitasking. The gaming experience is wonderful and this matters a lot to me.
Though I’m not an addict, but I love to play games on my mobile. It acts as a great stress buster for me. So, the first thing I did after receiving the phone, was to download Asphalt 8: Airborne, this being one of my favourites. After that, I bought The Room, this is another one which I’m finding very interesting these days. With 16GB of available storage which is expandable up to 64 GB, I can download anything and everything. The unique ZenUI has made 3D gaming stunning indeed. Moreover, weighing only 200gm(approx) it doesn’t feel cumbersome at all and thus gaming experience becomes all the more thrilling.
With my previous phone which belongs to a popular brand, multitasking sometimes was really time-consuming. But after using Zenfone 6 for about 10 days, I can safely conclude that multitasking is an absolutely incredible experience with this phone. You can easily operate your different mail accounts while playing or listening to music. I simultaneously use my gmail and my official mail id and it works smoothly. The interface, unlike many other high-end smartphones, is extremely user-friendly. Though equipped with numerous features, this is the best thing about Zenfone 6 that you don’t have to spend much time to understand the way it works.
The battery life is pretty cool and lasts for about 8-10 hours if you use it for various purposes like gaming, watching movies or listening to music, apart from the usual works. It takes less time to get charged also. When used moderately, the non-detachable 3300 mAh Lithium battery lasts even longer.
With a simple yet stylish design, it is sure to attract your attention. But as the handset colour is Pure White, you need to use a flip cover to prevent the rear side from attracting dirt. Another thing is the size. Though I find it quite convenient, but that it can’t be safely put in the pocket, can be an issue sometimes. Not compatible with 4G but works really fast with ordinary Wi-Fi connection.
