Capturing Memories with Zenfone 2 Deluxe

Hands-on with the latest from the Zenfone family

Meghalaya, a tiny state in the north eastern part of India, is the abode of clouds. The area which reminded of Scotland to the British, it was my destination for a weeklong expedition early this year.

When you visit a state that creates memories at every step, you should be equipped with good cameras to capture those. I thought relying on one camera (my dad’s Nikon P610) wouldn’t be too brilliant an idea, so wanted to take another camera along with me. I thought it would be good if the device, in addition to taking awesome pics, could also be my backup communication device.

And the device which performed very well, satisfying both requirements, was Asus’ Zenfone 2 Deluxe. Here are some notes from my experience of using this device.

Smartphone race heats up with Zenfone 2

The first desktop that I purchased was about a decade and half ago. And all the processing power that it had was a measly 800 MHz. Throw in a RAM of 128 MB and I had a pretty good PC that time. Of course, that PC helped me write more than 150 of my early stage articles and prepare two books for printing!

Now, 15 years later, the configuration of that PC sounds funny. 800 MHz processor! 128 MB RAM!!

Forget PCs, the mobile phones of this era have lots more processing power than what my old friend had. And the good thing is that they are not done yet.
