ASUS ZenFone 4 Family Released in North America
The ASUS ZenFone 4 family has been released in North America, equipped with dual-camera systems: Meet the ZenFone 4 Pro, ZenFone 4, and ZenFone 4 Max.
ZenFone 4 Pro: 10X zoom, 8X light sensitivity, 6GB RAM
The 5.5" ZenFone 4 Pro features a dual-camera system. Its main camera is equipped with the Sony IMX362 image sensor with a large 1/2.55-inch size, 1.4µm pixels and a wide, f/1.7-aperture lens. The dual-camera system on the ZenFone 4 Pro also has a 16MP camera with a 2X optical zoom and a 10X total zoom. The ASUS SuperPixel Engine increases captured light by up to 8X, and optical image stabilization (OIS) enables blur-free handheld exposures of up to 1/4 seconds.
The ZenFone 4 Pro is built on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 Mobile Platform featuring the Qualcomm Spectra 180 ISP and the Qualcomm Adreno 540 GPU. The ZenFone 4 Pro also features an integrated Snapdragon X16 LTE modem for connectivity up to 600Mbps as well as multi-gigabit 2x2 802.11ac Wi-Fi with MU-MIMO. Moreover, the built-in portable Wi-Fi hotspot lets users share LTE connectivity with other mobile devices such as laptops.
Built-in NFC enables mobile payments with Android Pay, and a front-mounted live fingerprint reader offers security and fast phone unlocking in just 0.3 seconds. To help prevent unauthorized use, the ZenFone 4 Pro has an extra-secure live fingerprint sensor. A capacitive sensor detects fingerprint details in the usual way, but there's an additional infrared optical sensor that detects blood flow under the skin. The ZenFone 4 Pro is available in Pure Black.
ZenFone 4: Dual cameras, 120° landscape photos
The 5.5" ZenFone 4's dual-camera system features a main camera with the Sony IMX362 image sensor and a f/1.8 aperture lens, as well as a 120° wide-angle lens.
The smartphone is powered by the Snapdragon 630 Mobile Platform and a high-capacity 3300mAh lithium-polymer battery. ASUS BoostMaster fast-charge technology means less charging and more moving. The ZenFone 4 also features 4GB of RAM and the Adreno 508 GPU. The device also features a quick 0.3 seconds fingerprint sensor and NFC, and is available in both Midnight Black and Moonlight White.
ZenFone 4 Max 5.5" and 5.2"
The ZenFone 4 Max smartphones are designed to be all-day photography companions, featuring a dual-rear-camera system with a 13MP main camera and a 120° wide-view camera. The ZenFone 4 Max comes in two different sizes. The ZenFone 4 Max (ZC554KL) features a 5.5-inch display and a 5000mAh battery with ASUS PowerMaster technology for a 46 days of 4G standby time. The ZenFone 4 Max (ZC520KL) features a 5.2-inch display with a fast-charging 4100mAh battery for up to 37 days 4G standby. With its massive battery power, the ZenFone 4 Max smartphones can double as a power bank to charge other devices, supplying 5V at 1A to attached devices when using a USB On-The-Go (OTG) cable. While charging other devices, the ZenFone 4 Max monitors its own charge level and will not allow the battery to drain below 30% capacity.
The ZenFone 4 Max smartphones run on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 and 425 Mobile Platforms, featuring the Qualcomm Adreno 505 and 308 graphics processors, respectively. They also support 4G LTE Category 4 for mobile download speeds up to 150Mbps.
