Asus Zenfone Ares Quick Review – What You Need To Know

The Asus Zenfone Ares sports a metallic unibody design that grants nice aesthetics. This phone has a rectangular compartment for the camera lenses and added features at the rear. At the front, the fingerprint scanner placed at the bottom bezel can be easily handled with the thumb. In the display department, the Super AMOLED screen sized at 5.7 inches directs the smartphone’s visible output. There’s the Tru2life technology that enhances outdoor visibility and presentation of oil-repellant coating. Nonetheless, the display is relayed remarkably by a 2K resolution (1440 x 2560 pixels) and 16:9 aspect ratio. The Corning Gorilla Glass 4 does well to serve adequate protection for the smartphone’s screen. The 23MP rear camera with f/2.0 aperture captures brilliant images on the phone. Features such as 3x zoom, AR 3D effects and a host of others improve the quality of the camera’s output. For the production of selfies, an 8MP camera gets conjoined with  85-degree wide viewing angle lens. Fortunately, Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 SoC powers the phone alongside an Octa-core 2.35GHz CPU. The Adreno 530 GPU disseminates the smartphone’s graphics properly without difficulties. On the software front, the Android Nougat OS is active. As much as 8GB RAM is available to ensure the smartphone’s apps run smoothly. The space available for keeping files is incredibly large at 128GB. In fact, it can be increased to 400GB with the aid of a MicroSD card. Finally, the phone runs for a long time due to the 3,300mAh Li-Ion battery on board.
