The new Asus Zenfone 5Z got released recently and it is loaded with tons of features. This features are common in any flagships but the price tag has decided the fate of the new beast. The 5Z is said to be in sale with a starting price tag of 29,999 INR for the 6GB/64GB variant. This is better than the presently available One Plus 6 which is currently available for around 34,999 INR for the 6GB/64GB variant too. Better value for money on the 5Z side.

Though for such a low price tag, the 5Z does come with few incredible features which make it stand away from the priced flagship crowd. What are those? Check out below.
6 BEST FEATURES OF THE ASUS ZENFONE 5Z
1. INCREDIBLE BODY DESIGN
Though you have to consider the feel of a flagship and that is necessary. The 5Z comes with the same stunning Aluminium body just like its previous flagships (and the zenfone 3) now with coated with Gorilla Glass for no scratch allowance. And it looks great. Plus, the 5Z is slim at around 7.9mm thin with its metallic edges providing you with a very comfortable feel.
2. BIG SCREEN
The Screen does look big and 6.2 inch is no small. But that's what it makes the Zenfone 5Z a different one from others. With stretched FULL HD resolution of 2246*1080p, the display does look sharp and crispy. It is going to be a very good experience during watching high quality movies, playing high graphics games and preferably when you are shooting photographs and 4K videos by the camera.
3. TOP LINE CHIPSET
The 5Z also comes with the highly powerful Snapdragon 845 Octacore chipset which has the newly announced next generation Kryo cores. The new chip comprises of two Kryo groups ; one powerful quad core 2.7Ghz Kryo 385 Gold and another quad core 1.7Ghz Kryo 385 Silver. The higher clocked 2.7ghz group is for handling the power demanding tasks whereas the lower clocked 1.7Ghz is most of the time active for the low grade operations. Qualcomm assures upto 35% more performance than the previous generation chipsets and upto 25% power efficiency overall. The new Adreno 630 GPU is way powerful for handling anything you can think of playing. The Snapdragon 845 does come with other high grade hardwares, like the new AI integration (for face unlock, AI camera and lot more), better Image processors for faster AF and zero shutter lag, new Thermal sensors for low throttling and with new fast charging capabilities.
4. BIGGER, BETTER, MORE MEMORY
The 5Z comes with huge memory storages including that of the RAM and internal memory. There are various memory options that you can consider. The RAM comes with upto 8GB and smaller 6GB/4GB sizes too. The internal storages now comes with huge 256GB in size with lower 128GB/64GB sizes too with the appropriate RAM size. Else, if you need more storage, then there is a SD card slot in the 5Z which is supported upto a whopping 512GB. Too much memory.
5. DUAL CAMERA STABILIZED
The 5Z comes with a incredible DUAL camera setup with the secondary camera being a WIDE angled one. This innovation was only supported by LG. Technically speaking, wide angle camera allows you to shoot more than the normalized field of view by the primary rear camera (which is good actually for group selfies). Also, the cameras have AI enabled, that can actually do object detection, scene detection and then apply the correct settings for a balanced shot. The Primary rear camera is a smaller 12MP with a bigger 1/2.55" sensor and a wider f/1.8 lens which is good for low light shots. Also, it comes with DUAL PIXEL Auto Focus, for faster accurate focusing. Both the Primary 12MP and the front 8MP offer stabilizations via Gyro-EIS system. The secondary 8MP has a wide f/2.0 lens too on small 1/4" sensor though. Asus decided to provide a WIDE angled camera solution to the secondary one which is bit uncommon. The camera is capable of shooting highly 120 degree wide scenes for better group shots. Video recording comes with 4K 30fps, 1080p upto 120fps and 720p upto 240fps. The front camera is again a 8MP with f/2.0 lens, but EIS stabilized so you wont be getting any more blurred selfies at low light.
6. NEW QUICK CHARGE 4+
The 5Z kind of comes with a OK type 3300mAh battery which is actually enough for running the big screen phone. But a bigger one would have been better and appreciated. But that is fine, know why? The Snapdragon 845 comes with the new Quick Charge 4+ next generation charging technology which also ensures the safety of the battery, its lifespan along with its battery backup and power output. Now for the charging ability, Qualcomm assures upto 50% charge up in just 15 minutes which is incredible. Also, the 845 comes with better power management via power efficient cores (Kryo 385 silver cores) and all of these built on a smaller 10nm fabrication size as to lower the power input by 12% lesser. Thus the 5Z can provide all day battery life with ease.
These are the 6 best features of the Asus Zenfone 5Z that makes it an excellent and premium flagship in the flagship grounds.
