Unit review: Asus Zenfone 3 Ultra

 

Reason Bought: replacement for old Galaxy Note 4

 

Verdict:

 

If you are into youtube or watching media on your phone you will love it. Battery lasts for a while even while doing power hungry tasks like watching or playing games. Plus it doubles as a powerbank for your other devices.

 

It is however huge, heavy and not a lot of accessories support it.. and the camera is average despite it being a 23megapixel unit.

 

The price will set you back about 33k depending on where you buy it.

 

At the end of the day ymwv. For me it does everything I need it to do plus it fits my stubby fat fingers haha.

 

Hope this helps. Good luck on your cell phone hunt!

recently bought ASUS Zenfone 3 Max for P9,000 (one time credit)

 

32GB Storage

3GB Ram

 

Can't say anything negative about the performance, for its price, it exceeds expectation and much better than the P20k-ish phone lines of samsung like A7 (my wife has one) or A8 (used to have one).

 

Very happy with the purchase. Medyo mahina lang ang speaker phone kapag tumatawag but everything else is superb.

thinking of getting one. Battery life?

Standard. Gets me through a day with WiFi/data. Charge ko upon waking up kasi nasa around 10 na lang. Dash charge is very fast so after ligo, good na. Pag ka uwi, nasa 40+ pa. Then before going to sleep, heavy use on YouTube. Not the best sa battery pero dash charge makes up for it.

Product: Zenfone 2 Laser 6.0

 

Pro: Good battery life. Snappy. Removable battery. Quick Auto focus. Large Screen. Expandable Memory

 

Cons: Screen too bright (The image display is overexposed. You have to use screen filter app), large screen (yeah...may chance malaglag mo yung phone)

Camera not so great. So so lang. GPS sucks (Gagana lang pag gusto niya)

Kaya tumagal ng isang araw. Kaso kung lagi naka on yung Mobile Data. Nakupo...tapos panay youtube? Good luck battery. Ang main problem ko lang eh yung display niya.

 

Sobrang liwanag at overexposed pa yung image...even naka dim na. Need gumamit ng screen filter app para maging ok yung display.

If ever you are looking for a smart phone, ask yourself which of the following do you want? (You can only choose 1 because not all phones are good at everything)

 

1. Battery life

2. Camera for selfie/face

3. Camera for near DSLR

4. Processor speed (apps)

5. Phone memory

6. Price

7. Screen clarity (watching videos)

 

Again, choose only one and make this your priority. You are only fooling yourself if you believe that a single phone will give you all of these.

 

IPhone 7 - Best near DSLR camera ; bad battery ; worse memory ; worse price

 

Android phones - good phone memory

 

Oppo F3 - best selfie / beautify photos ; good bokeh if you are in to that ; ok price

 

Samsung S8 - good apps speed ; best screen resolution ; pricey

 

Huawei - good battery ; bad bokeh ; ok price

 

Sony - good app speed ; near DSLR camera

 

I have not yet tested the following

Vivo

Cherry mobile
