Two weeks ago, I received two new gadgets for review. While this is primarily a food, travel and lifestyle blog where I share my personal bites of those, I welcome from time to time chance to write reviews for gadgets, gizmos and finds… or constantly be on the lookout for them. Technology nowadays permeates the aspect of food, travel and lifestyle and keeps us up to speed and connects us in many ways, whether to socially share a food photo or download maps for traveling or apps for a foreign language tutorial or guide. My excitement started mounting when I saw that these boxes were ASUS-branded phones. ASUS, known worldwide as top-three consumer notebook vendor and maker of the world’s best-selling motherboards, is an award-winning enterprise that designs and manufactures products that sit at ease in the new digital era.

ASUS carries with it a broad portfolio that includes motherboards, graphics cards, optical drives, displays, desktop and all-in-one PCs, notebooks, netbooks, servers, multimedia devices, wireless solutions, networking devices, tablets and now, market-affordable smartphones. I remember in 2011 ASUS launched the EEE pad / PC which won multiple awards meeting the needs of today’s digital home and office.

Last month, I heard about ASUS’ announcement on the local launch of Zenfone Series and Padfone Mini in the Philippines. In fact, they partnered with Lazada in making these new phones available so consumers can start purchasing Zenfone 4, 5 and 6 from one of the biggest online stores (http://www.lazada.com.ph/shop-mobiles-tablets/asus/).
The time to unbox has dawned upon us. ASUS ZenFone 4, weighing in at 115g, has a 4-inch TFT LCD, which gives you better appreciation of photos you take with better pixel quality vs. a QWERTY phone you’ve been delaying to replace. Enjoy 8GB internal storage for all your music, photos, videos, phonebook contacts and other files and even an additional 64GB via an external microSD. This Android 4.3 smart phone is WiFi enabled for the entire site-surfing, chatting, and easy accessing of social networking sites you want to do. Powerful enough with 1GB RAM and equipped with Bluetooth, 3G/HSPA, 5MP rear camera and VGA front-facing camera for those momentary need for “selfies” or photos with friends.
