ZenFone 6 – When Beauty Meets Incredible Mobile Performance
Equipped with a spacious 6-inch screen, the ZenFone 6 is the big brother of the ZenFone series. It offers an HD display that measures a fantastic six inches across the diagonal – allowing users to see much more of what they want. Like the ZenFone 5, the ZenFone 6 features the exclusive GloveTouch technology that allows users to operate the device with gloved hands.
Made to optimise mobile entertainment, the ZenFone 6’s large HD screen is complemented with the exclusive ASUS SonicMaster audio technology with virtual surround sound via headphones. This provides users with a truly immersive mobile entertainment experience be it watching movies or playing games.
Featuring a fast and energy-efficient Intel® Atom™ Z2580 processor running at 2.0GHz, the ZenFone 6 is also fitted with a 13-megapixel rear camera with ASUS PixelMaster technology and image stabilisation, as well as a 2-megapixel front camera for selfies and high resolution video calls. The rear camera also comes with a backside-illumination (BSI) and wide aperture f/2.0 lens to capture sharp and clear digital photographs. PixelMaster’s Low-Light Mode measures the available light and intelligently adjusts the pixel size to increase light sensitivity by up to 400%, thus allowing the ZenFone 6 to snap great low-light shows and videos without built-in flash.
