ASUS ZenFone Zoom Arrives in the Philippines, Sports 3X Optical Zoom for Php26,995

After about a year of waiting since it was announced, the ASUS ZenFone Zoom, the world's thinnest smartphone with 3x optical zoom has finally arrived in the Philippines.

The ASUS ZenFone Zoom was first unveiled during the CES 2015, along with the ASUS ZenFone 2, but it took quite a little while before in lands locally. The good thing about waiting though, is that it comes with much improved internals, from the original Intel Atom Z3580, it now uses the newer Intel Atom Z3590 chipset that has 64-bit quad core CPU clocked up to 2.5GHz each combined PowerVR 6430 GPU with burst frequency of up to 640MHz. It also has a massive dual-channel 4GB of RAM for seamless multitasking and a huge internal storage of 128GB.

As a camera-centric Android phone that promises DSLR-grade performance, it boasts 3x optical zoom with D-cut 10-element HOYA lens arrangement, giving it a 12x total zoom or 28-84mm focal length equivalent.  It also sports rock-steady 4 stops optical image stabilization, ultra-fast laser auto-focus and dual-LED real tone flash, allowing users to capture every moment with great clarity. The front camera is equally interesting too, having a 5MP resolution and able to take Selfie Panorama up to 140 degrees. Not only that, it has ASUS proprietary PixelMaster Technology for better low-light capability, manual mode capability and real time beautification.

All the amazing hardware mentioned above together with its 5.5-inch full HD display and 3000mAh battery are housed in an aerospace-grade aluminum unibody frame with ultra-thin edge of just 5mm and has a premium leather finish.
