ASUS Unveils Zenfone 2 New Flagship Specifications with 4GB RAM






Today at 7.00 pm GMT ASUS CEO Jerry Shen announced ASUS Zenfone2 and ASUS Zenfone Zoom at CES 2015 in Las Vegas.

ASUS today unveiled ZenFone 2 (ZE551ML), the flagship smartphone in the new-generation ZenFone family. With a gorgeous all-new ergonomic design, a 5.5-inch Full HD IPS display, 13MP/5MP PixelMaster cameras, a 2.3GHz 64-bit Intel Atom processor with 4GB RAM and 4G/LTE connectivity, ZenFone 2 delivers powerful all-round performance.

Building on the resounding worldwide success of ASUS ZenFone, which sold 1,500,000 units per month in the fourth quarter of 2014 and garnered enthusiastic reviews from journalists and users alike, the much-anticipated ASUS ZenFone 2 premieres many evolved features including a new version of ASUS ZenUI — which has the world’s first fully-customizable interface — and Trend Micro™ security software for safe web browsing.

"The passion behind the design of ZenFone 2 is our never-ending desire to empower luxury for everyone,” said ASUS Chairman Jonney Shih, “We have drawn on our considerable engineering expertise and experience with our popular ZenFone to create a smartphone that embodies this ambition. That device is the incredible new ZenFone 2 — luxury that everyone can enjoy."

Luxurious, ultra-thin Ergonomic Arc design

ASUS ZenFone 2 has a stunning, all-new design employing iconic ASUS design elements that echo the spirit of Zen, with a luxurious brushed-metal finish and distinctive concentric-circle detailing. ZenFone 2 introduces new and evolved aesthetic refinements, including a graceful curved case that tapers to an incredibly thin 3.9mm at the edges to lend ZenFone 2 a bold yet elegant look. This curvature provides exceptional comfort and a secure grip, and intuitive control and convenience is further enhanced by the rear-mounted volume control key — ideally-positioned for the user’s index finger. 

ZenFone 2 has an incredibly sharp and vivid 5.5-inch Full HD IPS display with a 403ppi pixel density and a wide 178-degree viewing angle, ensuring lifelike photos and videos and great-looking apps. ASUS TruVivid technology enhances display performance even more with bright, brilliant colors. The display has an ultra-narrow 3.3mm bezel, giving ZenFone 2 a remarkable 72% screen-to-body ratio for a maximized viewing experience, and is covered with Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3 for superior resistance to damage and fingerprints. An anti-fingerprint coating reduces friction by 30%, giving a luxuriously-smooth feel to touch gestures.

ZenFone 2 is available in five unique colors that, together with the beauty and customizability of ASUS ZenUI, result in a smartphone that is truly personal, both inside and out. The ZenFone 2 color portfolio includes Osmium Black, Sheer Gold, Glacier Gray, Glamor Red and Ceramic White. Special Transfusion and Illusion covers are available that give users even more choices to match their own unique style.

PixelMaster camera: See what others can’t see

ASUS ZenFone 2 has a 13MP PixelMaster camera with an f/2.0 wide-aperture lens to capture stunning, high-resolution photos with zero shutter lag. This industry-leading Low Light mode employs pixel-merging technology to capture up to 400% brighter photos at night, or in low-light scenes, without the need for a flash. When a flash is preferred, ZenFone 2 is equipped with a Real Tone flash to ensure warm skin tones and accurate color.

The ZenFone 2 camera also has Backlight (HDR) mode to let users capture vivid, evenly-exposed photos in challenging backlit scenes such as sunset portraits. By using pixel-enhancing technology to increase contrast by up to 400%, Backlight (HDR) mode ensures that foreground subjects stand out clearly and are free of shadows.
For those seeking fine-grained control over camera settings like ISO, shutter speed and more, Manual mode offers users a DSLR-like experience right on their smartphone.

ZenFone 2 is also equipped with a 5MP front-facing camera with a wide, 85-degree field of view perfectly engineered for taking selfies with real-time beautification. For those wanting to capture a group of friends, or include scenery in their selfie, ZenUI Selfie Panorama mode captures panoramic selfies with up to a 140-degree field of view.

Powerful performance for today, and beyond 

ASUS ZenFone 2 is powered by an up to 2.3GHz 64-bit Intel Atom processor Z3580 and has 4GB RAM to deliver up to seven times (7X)1 faster gaming performance than its predecessor. A 60ms touch response time ensures lag-free input, and OpenGL 3.0 provides incredible gaming performance.

ZenFone 2 has built-in 4G/LTE connectivity for blazingly-fast data speeds of up to 150Mbit/s plus 802.11ac Wi-Fi, ensuring stutter-free streaming of video and music as well as a smooth all-round mobile experience. Dual-SIM capacity with Dual Active technology makes ZenFone 2 the perfect travel or business companion, allowing users to have two active phone lines on their device so they can keep in touch from anywhere.

Users will spend less time waiting and more time enjoying ZenFone 2 with its high-capacity, 3000mAh battery that provides more than a full day of use on a single charge. Fast-charge technology enables recharges to 60% battery level in only 39 minutes.

A simpler, smarter, more personalized ZenUI experience

Freedom, connection, and expression form the foundation for ASUS’s ZenUI mobile user interface. These three pillars have also inspired the evolutionary changes to ZenUI for ZenFone 2. This latest version offers a simpler and smarter user experience, with a stylish new layout that utilizes white space for a cleaner design, and which places information front and center for a simpler, smarter user experience. 

ZenFone 2 is the world’s first smartphone to give everyone the ability to completely customize it to match their personal style and usage preferences, including ZenUIs launcher, themes, fonts, icons, and more. 

ZenUI has many great new features — including ZenMotion, SnapView, Trend Micro™ security and ZenUI Instant Updates — that enhance usability; ensure security and privacy; and deliver a seamless user experience.
ZenMotion is a collection of intuitive touch gestures, each providing a new way of interacting with ZenUI, and allowing quick and easy access to frequently-used features such as One Hand mode or Do It Later.
SnapView is a security feature that ensures privacy for apps, photos, and files. SnapView lets users easily keep their personal and business information separate. 
Trend Micro security is integrated with the ZenUI browser for the total mobile web browsing security.
ZenUI Instant Updates is a seamless new method of keeping ZenUI apps up to date. With ZenUI Instant Updates, ASUS app developers can make updates available immediately, avoiding delays between app releases and ensuring the best experience for ZenFone 2 users.

Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12 2 hands on

The growth spurt experience by smartphones has jumped to tablets too – the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 dwarfs the 7 and 10-inch Android tablets and is the biggest tablet we’ve had in our office.
How much do those couple of extra inches matter anyway? The Note Pro 12.2 screen has nearly 50% more surface area than a 10.1″ tablet.
To put it another way, the Note Pro 12.2 is closer to a 13″ ultrabook than a 10″ tablet. In fact, after using it for a few days while writing the review, we were stumped how small something like the Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1 looks.

The Note Pro 12.2 is heavier than 10.1″ tablets too, so you are better of resting it against a desk or a table if you are going to use it for more than a few minutes. We suspect getting one of the cases that can hold up the tablet like a kickstand will be a worthwhile investment.
We tried our hand at drawing whit the S Pen too and appreciated the extra room the bigger screen has. It’s also great that apps can be set to disregard touch input, so you can rest your palm on the screen while you use the S Pen (which works with a separate digitizer).

Samsung has also updated the Multi-window multitasking feature, which now supports up to four apps. If it sounds excessive, consider that four apps running on the screen get the equivalent of a 6.1″ 1280 x 800 screen each, plus a Krait 400 or Cortex-A15 core.
 Check out the updated TouchWiz interface in action below:
We’re almost done with the review and we’ll be publishing it soon.

Project







If Yezz company, which recently designed a hundred modules for Project Ara is expected to firm up at MWC 2015, Toshiba recently formalized two picture sensor modules 13 and 5 Megapixels and a front camera module 2 megapixels for the modular Google smartphone.


Although only 5 megapixels, the smaller of the two sensors dosaux offers photosites of 1.12 microns, which should enable it to properly capture light despite its lower resolution. It displays a thickness of 6.4 mm. Thicker, the sensor 13 Megapixel displays a thickness of 7.1 mm with the photosites of a size 1.4 microns. It should give excellent results.

The big advantage of Project Ara is that it offers the user the opportunity to share the different components of its smartphone for higher-end modules. In other words, no need to change to change smartphone if you want to have a better photo sensor as simply just replace it. The latest technologies will be accessible more easily since the user will only have to buy new modules and not a “whole” smartphone.


The Project Ara will be officially launched by year end on the Puerto Rican market. The unit should also benefit from a battery module designed by SolidEnergy Company, offering an energy density twice that of current batteries.



Very involved in the Project Ara, Toshiba has dedicated a section of its site modular smartphone Google which are compiled many technical details to which you can access via the source link below.

Embedded DisplayPort 1 4a opens the door to computers with screens 8K

computers







Screens with very high resolution slowly starting to hole, and more and more computers display well above definitions to 1920 x 1080 pixels Full HD appellation. But if the screens “Retina” are obviously very attractive for their display finesse, the most high-end models may represent true integration nightmares for manufacturers. To market its iMac with Retina 5K display, Apple eg had to create a home component to handle 14.7 million pixels incredible slab. The screen 5K Sony, it requires the joint use of two DisplayPort cables. After the announcement of DisplayPort 1.3 will allow the use of external displays 5K and even 8K with a single cable (read: From DisplayPort 1.3 for 5K screens), VESA Association has announced the arrival of a new standard, Embedded DisplayPort 1.4a, which will allow laptops and desktops to manage an internal display 8K, ie a definition of 7680 x 4320 pixels.


computers


 VESA is expected of the first uses of this new standard next year. It should of course not expect the integration of 5K or 8K screens in laptops in 2016, but this novelty will make less exceptional and therefore less expensive integration of displays at the top definition in designation 4K. The iMac Retina 5K is still only in its market, but this should not last!
