A Marvel of Craftsmanship and Engineering, in The Palm of Your Hand
The Beauty of Zen
ZenFone 2 has incredibly-slim 3.9mm edges. This is more than an impressive engineering feat, it’s a marvel of design and ergonomics, making the ZenFone 2 incredibly comfortable to hold. The iconic ASUS concentric-circle design adorns both the front and rear key, giving a beautiful, tactile effect. This effect is achieved through precision machining that produces circles with a mere 0.13mm pitch, giving ZenFone 2 a premium look and feel.

When designing the ZenFone 2, we started with you in mind. As a result, ZenFone 2 has a highly-intuitive control layout, incorporating a physical rear key as part of the new Ergonomic Arc design. Snapping selfies, adjusting the volume and retracing your steps now feels completely natural, regardless of whether you are right- or left-handed. The elegant new shape feels secure and extremely comfortable to hold.
ZenFone 2 is a 5.5-inch smartphone with a body that’s as small as that of a traditional 5-inch device. This incredible engineering achievement was made possible by reducing the bezel width to the bare minimum, giving ZenFone 2 a remarkable 72% screen-to-body ratio.
Unprecedented Performance
ZenFone 2 is powered by a 64-bit 2.3GHz Super Quad-Core Intel® Atom™ Z3580 processor, and is the world’s first smartphone with 4GB of dual-channel DDR3 RAM. Featuring LTE Cat 4+ for download speeds up to 250Mbit/s, and a 60ms touch response time, ZenFone 2 gives you power beyond your imagination.
Sharp Vision
ZenFone 2’s 13MP PixelMaster camera with its f/2.0-aperture lens captures stunning, high-resolution photos with zero shutter-lag. The industry-leading Low Light mode employs pixel-merging technology to capture up to 400% brighter photos at night or in low-light scenes, without the need for a flash. Backlight (Super HDR) mode lets you see clearly through daytime shadow and Super Resolution mode helps you to capture detailed images at resolutions of up to 52MP!

PixelMaster Backlight (Super HDR) mode automatically captures multiple shots of the scene in the viewfinder, and processes these using ASUS Pixel Enhancing technology. This expands the dynamic range by 4 times to give the final picture up to 400% more brightness, along with improved color contrast and detail to ensure the photos you capture in any scene with strong back-lighting look totally natural.
Through a combination of pixel-merging technology, which joins four adjacent pixels to form a new pixel, and advanced image-processing algorithms, Low Light mode increases light sensitivity by up to 400%. It also enhances noise reduction and boosts color contrast by up to 400%, for clear and bright low-light shots with no need for flash.
Fast Charging
ASUS BoostMaster technology is an ASUS-exclusive technology that charges the battery much faster than in traditional devices. With ZenFone 2, you can recharge your battery up to 60% of capacity in just 39 minutes!
