Coolpad Max Review

0

Coolpad had an entry in India about a year ago with Daizen. But this partnership broke down a month later. After this, the routes of the two Chinese companies separated. Today, the company we know by the name of coolpad has noticed the market with only Rs 10,000 less segment. Coolpad Note 3 And its two variants have been introduced in the market. At a high price of Rs 24,999 Launch Hua coolpad can be called an ambitious project of Max Company and it is also a step in the link to introduce a premium phone.

note 3 All of Variant Like it Coolpad Max The best effort is to prove to be a premium smartphone. What are the features of coolpad Max smartphones coming in the beautiful box with metal body, curved-ease glass, spectacular specification and accessory? Today we will review this new smartphone of coolpad.


Look and design
Coolpad Max comes in a beautiful box printed from golden letters. Sliding the box, but you can remove this phone from its tray. Below this you will find accessories in many black boxes. With the phone you will get a quick-charge support charger, a flat USB cable, a wired headset, a plastic case, a screen protector and a SIM Ejector PIN. The phone has been introduced with the box in such a way that customers should be attracted and take it home as a premium smartphone.

The impact of the recently introduced Apple and HTC smartphones in this device of coolpad can be clearly seen. Our review unit was Royal Gold color. Apart from this, this phone is also available in Rose Gold color variants. But its natural gray variants have not been launched in India, which may cause some customers disappointed. This design is being used nowadays in most Android smartphones at low -priced Android smartphones. The next part of the phone has a gorilla glass 4 for safety. The glass is quite reflex and every time the phone moves on the side of the phone, which can be a bit disturbing. Above the screen is the earpiece grill, front camera and sensor window while the bottom space is empty. The navigation button is onscreen.


On the right side of the phone has a papar button and hybrid SIM/MicroSD tray. The phone will have to choose one SIM and one SIM or MicroSD card. Volume buttons are given on the left side. At the top is the 3.5mm audio shock and at the bottom is a micro-USB port surrounded by two grills. Of which there is only one speaker.

The rear panel of the phone is made of matte metal which gives a good feeling but it is affixed to a large white sticker on which the regulator information is given. Our review unit was turned, which spoiled the entire look of the phone. A round fingerprint sensor is given above the sticker, around which there is a shiny ring. The rear has a camera on the top right side with a two-tone flash on one side and a hole for the mic on the other side.


It is very convenient to catch the phone, although the edges could be improved by making it a little more round. The phone is slightly heavy and weighs 170 grams. The rear of the phone is slightly slipper. With the plastic protective case, we found it very better to catch the phone. Overall, Coolpad Max is definitely a smartphone with a premium look but not the most attractive phone to come at this price.

Specification
Coolpad Max is also called Coolpad A8. This phone is available in different countries with different hardware. Our Review Unit was a variant launched in India with a 1.5 GHz octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 processor, 4 GB RAM and 64 GB of internal storage. At this price, the processor can be called a little weak but storage and RAM are better than expected.


The phone has a 5.5 -inch screen with 1080×1920 pixels resolution, which is good according to this price phone these days. Coolpad Max has a 13-megapixel rear camera with dual-tone flash and phase-detection autofocus. The front camera is 5 megapixels. Both cameras can record up to 1080 pixels. The phone has a 2800 mAh battery which is non-removable. Battery supports Qualcomm’s Qual Charge 3.0 technology and the company promises that up to 3 hours of talk time can be found from the phone in 5 minutes of charging.

The phone provides Indian band 3 and 40 LTE support on both SIMs. Wi-Fi AC, Bluetooth 4.0, A-GPS, FM radio and USB OTG have been provided for connectivity. Only 64 GB storage can be increased with microSD card in the phone. The NFC and infrared support found in the second phone are not in Coolpad Max.


Overall, coolpad Max has strong specifications except the processor. The processor given in Coolpad Max is being given in a low price phone today. This phone of coolpad can give a tough competition to the more than Rs 40,000, the more than Rs 40,000, the flagship smartphone. Coolpad is full hopes that Max’s software will attract feach, texture and design customers. However, if you are looking for 4K video recording and 3D game feature, then you have to find another option for that.

Software
Cool UI of Coolpad above Android 5.1 Lollipop can be quite well customized. There are some very good features in it and some strange features have also been given. Initially the default skin is completely based on sepia-tone which is very similar to the gold body but it makes it very difficult to identify the app icon. We did not like this look of the phone and had to go to the theme app to get much better. All app icons and wizuts are given under the homescreen and like the second device of the coolpad, this phone does not have any ‘traditional mode’ with the app drawer. Apart from this, there are some confusing text labels due to translation from Chinese to English.


The phone’s dialer, contact list and messaging Fern with a tab interface have been merged in a single app. This is not a big problem, but it is a bit strange to use for the first time. The phone default keyboard TouchPal 2015 has been given which has all the preset Fraz, a full-screen mode and an optional T9 layout. Apart from this, Google’s Hindi/Hinglish keyboard will also be available.

There are also some pre-install apps in the phone. Work can be done such as vacating RAM from the cool manager, detection of data usage, monitoring power consumption and app permits twice. Apart from this, select collar can also be blocked. You can lock the app from the fingerprint and search the Autorized Service Center from the Map with an app called Cool Service.


The setting app has some other small fun features. By enabling split-screen mode, you can run one app in two independent frames. Apart from this, the color and layout of the onscreen navigation button can also be changed. If you feel that the screen is far away from your finger to reach at one time, then you can enable the floating button that leads to a circular menu which provides many control options. Zen mode has a ‘do not disturb’ feature schedule that can be removed for the necessary contacts or alerts.

One thing that bothers a little is that you cannot easily protect private things from an passcode or fingerprint. The space management section of the setting app is protected and you can hide the dock icon and quick setting bar. After this, you can register your fingerprint by going to the fingerprint management app.


Talk about Samsung, Blackberry and Nokia, they have used such features to keep the user work and personal data forward. It seems that this feature implemented by coolpad has been brought for more private data security than corporate data security. This feature is based on the secure space of graphite software developer. But it does not include all the features.

Performance
Coolpad Max mostly responds brilliantly but it becomes very hot when used for a long time. Even after normal use, the phone starts to heat up after some time. Everything goes on in a spectacular way in the phone but does not seem convenient to catch the phone while playing the game. Apart from this, the phone works better everywhere.

The screen of the phone is sharp and shiny and the color looks very effective. The game and movie can be enjoyed better except the reflection of the screen. For simple use, the speaker is quite loud and the headset (which looks like Apple’s earpod) can be said to be right according to the music.

The fingerprint reader in the phone works quite fast but every time it does not respond to the right. It works for a second time more than the first time. Switching between the spactions takes about 10 seconds and the company that has licensed the coolpad says that it has a little impact on the performance. With private space, we did not see any special difference in the performance of the phone.


In the benchmarking test, we got a good data from the phone. The graphics score was slightly weak. Apart from this, recently launched low price Lenovo Zook Z1 ,Review) And Moto G4 Plus ,Review) Equal figures were found.

Coolpad Max’s camera is very good, women are clean and without noys. Along with this, texture is also good. Field effects in close-up shot also come with depth. But there is trouble while locking the focus, which also brought pictures taken in good light. Good pictures can be taken from the phone even in low light. But there is also a problem of lewdness of photographs here. The video recorded at 1080 pixels is fine but looks a little bit.


In our video loop test, the phone battery supported for 8 hours 41 minutes. During general use, we were able to run the phone for a day and the quick charge feature is very useful. You do not need to charge the phone throughout the day and in just a few minutes the entire phone is charged.

Our decision
Coolpad definitely wants to strengthen its penetration in India. Coolpad Max is a good phone but it is very hot and its high price is a big problem. Perhaps the price of the phone is high due to private space features and design.


Private space feature is good but the phone does not have a separate privacy solution so that when IT administrator manages sensitive information and policy in your office, you can manage your personal data.

Talking about the feature, in this phone you have the same price Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) ,Review) There are better features from better features. The biggest problem is that You also get the same features in another low price phone Even if his look is not premium. If you want to spend great features and good money, then you can choose Coolpad Max but if you feel that you can live without a unique feature of Coolpad Max, then you can save your little money.

Lenovo Zook Z1 Review

0

The Lenovo Group already has two well-known brands Lenovo and Motorola. The company worldwide sells in large numbers on the basis of its strong and various magnificent products. However, like other companies, the company launched its new brand Zook for online products only.

Today we, Lenvo zook z 1 Will review Although Globally this phone has been introduced as Zook Z1, Lenovo launched it in India under the name Lenovo Zook Z1 with the intention of maintaining its parent name. It is worth noting that Zook Z1 was first launched in China in September last year. Therefore, reviewing this phone today is a little outdated. Today we will know in our investigation, Lenovo Zook Z1 features and shortcomings.


Look and design
It was a few years ago, when a phone with a 5.5 -inch screen was considered oversize. With this, the discussion started on seeing a big phone in your hand. But today, the size is an essential condition due to more media consumption in the smartphone. Lenovo Zook Z1 comes with this size, although it definitely feels a bit heavy.

There are two main reasons for this smartphone being heavy, metal frame and 4100 mAh battery, which leads to 175 grams weight of the phone. However, the phone does not have a unibody case and the rear panel is of plastic. Users cannot access the battery. Along with the frame, there is a dual sim tray on the left side. The phone does not support expandable storage, so microSD card slot has not been given.


In India, Lenovo Zook Z1 is available in white and space gray color variants. Our review unit was gray which we felt a little better than white. The rear dull of the phone is of metallic finish. The phone does not have any kind of Lenovo branding but the rear has only zook logo at the bottom. The camera and flash have been given on the rear upwards. Overall, we liked the phone’s look, design and styling.

The Lenovo Zook Z1 has a microphone, speaker and USB Type-C port for charging and data transfer at the bottom. The user will get a 13 watt power adapter in the box with the phone and a USB 3.0 cable (one side Type-A plug and Type-C on the other side). The phone has a power and volume button on the right side while the upward 3.5mm headphone shock. About 70 percent of the phone is occupied by the screen, while it has a camera, earpiece and proximity sensor above it. At the bottom is the physical home button in which the fingerprint sensor is integrated. Below the display is the capacitive Android navigation button.


We have seen many such smartphones in which fingerprint sensor is built in the home button itself. Samsung Galaxy A8 And HTC One A9 (Review) The phone is unlocked only by touching many phones (even in standby mode) but it does not happen in Zook Z1. This phone has to be activated by pressing the home button and the button has to be pressed till the fingerprint is identified.

This is not only a problem in itself, but one has to try a little more to press the button. The sensor works quite quickly and properly to unlock the phone. But like this other device, this process is not as easy. Earlier the sensor used to act like a capacitive back button but now it has been disabled through a software update.

The Lenovo Zook Z1 has a screen of 1080×1920 pixels resolution with a Dancer 401 PPI. The screen is fantastic and meets almost all the needs. The IPS-LCD screen given in the phone is not as shiny as we expected and it does not give as much glow even when we have the most bright level. However, the polerized coating on the screen helps to use the phone easily in sunlight, so the phone does not require much brightness.


In addition, the phone also has a livedisplay, with the help of this setting, the color tone of the screen can be optimized according to the day.

Specification
Today, when smartphones priced at Rs 15,000 run on the latest MediaTek Helio or Snapdragon 600 Series processor, Lenovo Zook Z1 has a premium but an old 2.5 GHz 32-bit quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor. Snapdragon 801 smartphones were introduced for the first time in the market about two years ago, so choosing Lenovo’s processor is under question. Especially 32-bit processor while practically all hardware has come on 63-bit processor.


The Zook Z1 has 3 GB RAM and the phone supports both SIM 4G connectivity (with Indian band support), Wi-Fi AC connectivity. A 4100 mAh battery has been given to make the smartphone strong. The phone has 64 GB of inbuilt storage but the phone does not support expandable storage, so you have to work with a limited storage.

Software
The Lenovo Zook Z1 smartphone runs on Cyanogen OS 12.1 based on Android 5.1.1. Although the phone is being talked about upgrading on the cynogen OS 13 based on Android 6.0, but this update is not available in the OTA software update system of the Philhat phone. Cyanogen gives OS phone the option to customize the phone at its convenience.

In many ways, the cyanogen OS stock works like Android and you can also change the theme that looks like stock Android. The identity of the system is to be customized in every way and we saw it in Lenovo Zook Z1. Home screen and app drawer can be converted into different layouts. Apart from this, grid size, scroll effect and icon label can also be changed and togle. There is much more to do in the phone. Apart from this, you can also control the user interface at a large extent at the basic level.


Apart from this, there are many different options when going to the setting app, so that you can control the device in a better way. Many options are also available on charging the phone on or off the light, the color of the notification light for battery alert, custom action for home and recent button, status bar and separate elements for notification drawers. Cyanogen OS is the best system for those advanced users who want more control over their phones. We liked using this phone.

Camera
Lenovo Zook Z1 has a 13 -megapixel rear camera that runs on Sony’s IMX 214 sensor. The camera has optical image stabilization and dual-LED flash. The phone has an 8 megapixel front camera. Videos of up to 1080 pixels can be recorded from both cameras. Apart from this, there is also 60 FPS video recording from the rear camera.

Camera app Sineogen has its own camera Next, which comes with a very good option in using and working. The togle used to be used can be easily accessed from the viewfinder screen which includes flash, camera and timer settings. Sirp can be recorded with a touch as well as a video. Panorama mode can also be easily togarted. Additionally, resolution settings, manual control and codec selection can be done by going to the setting menu. These options also provide the option to make pictures and videos better.


The camera of the phone is very good and it brings photos with sharp and details. The color tone also comes in the pictures. The pictures are good in good light, while even in low light, we managed to take good pictures with a little nois and scatter. Pictures in the indoor are not as good as compared to natural light, but they can be called right according to details and color.

In good light, the video is made of much better quality, but the quality deteriorates in low light.


Performance
Despite the two -year Puna processor, the performance of Lenovo Zukak Z1 is quite good. However, you will get better performance in the new Qualcomm 650 and 652 processors, which is getting in another device with this price. Apart from this, it is also to be remembered that the Adreno 330 GPU is also quite old and it does not support OpenGL ES 3.1 and 3.2, so that some new grfix intensive games cannot be played in the phone.

The normal performance of the phone was very good. Along with this, we did not even see any heating, shutter trouble in the phone. The credit of this certainly goes to the Cyanogen OS which decides that the Zook Z1 is easily run without any trouble.


We found great figures in the phone’s benchmarking test, especially in the graphics benchmark.

In the video loop test of Zook Z1, its battery supported us up to 13 hours 40 minutes, which is a big specialty of the phone. At the same time, once charged during common use, we could run Zook Z1 for more than a day. Y-pie, cellular connectivity and call quality are also very good. But the phone’s speaker (which gives extremely bad sound) disappoints. However, the headphones provide a good sound to watch music players and videos.


Our decision
Lenovo has introduced a great device as Zook Z1. The design of the phone is fantastic, the software works well, the display is good and the storage is also Barpur. Connectivity and battery life is also fantastic. Apart from this, the screen is also sharp and the phone can be customized according to its own. Above all, the company has kept the price of the phone such that it will definitely be attracted to this phone. Especially those advanced users who know a little bit about Cyanogen OS.

However, the phone also has some attention drawing drawbacks. However, we did not see any decrease in its performance at the time of using the phone. The phone runs on the old 32-bit processor and GPU which can cause problems in some new games and apps. Apart from this, Cyanogen is an old version of OS and Android and no information has been received about the new software update. Apart from this, it will not be easy to buy Z1 as this phone will be sold through flash cell.

Given the price of Lenovo Zook Z1, this is a great option that comes with the best feature. If the old hardware is not an issue for you, then you want to use it as a secondary phone, then the Zook Z1 is sure better than the other smartphone coming in this price.

Moto G4 Plus Review in Hindi, Moto G4 Plus Review

0

It is not hidden from anyone that Motorola’s Moto Series smartphones are very much liked in India. Tremendous sale of Moto G and Moto E series smartphones The hold of Motorola (Moto by Lenovo) in the Indian market has strongly strengthened. The Moto G series has become the most popular among all the smartphones of the Moto brand. In our view, Moto G has always been a good balance phone in terms of smartphone feature and price.

After the acquisition of Motorola by Lenovo Moto ji Fourth generation smartphone Lenovo is branding in. The classic Motorola logo can still be seen in the handset but it is clear that Lenovo wants to introduce Moto as its sub-brand. Especially the company plans to replace its Vibe series with Moto smartphones.

Moto G (Jane 3) ,Review) And Moto G (Turbo Edition) ,Review) The smartphone was successful but we had a complaint about the camera performance in these phones. But Motorola has faced this problem in all its smartphones. Moto G4 Plus smartphone, Moto G4 There is a slightly better specified phone than in which more better features are given as camera and software. Today we will review this new smartphone of Moto G4 Plus and see how this smartphone of Moto is.


Look and design
Motorola’s well-known design can also be seen in G4 Plus. However, this is not completely as before, but it can definitely be identified as a moto product. Rubber’s rear cover with spherical metal frame gives a good grip to the phone. This phone is slightly larger than the previous Moto G smartphone, which is due to the 5.5-inch full-HD TFT screen given in it. Even in sunlight, the smartphone can be run very easily and brilliant colors can be seen in the display. Corning Gorilla Glass has been given for protection. The G4 Plus is quite thin and its thickness is 7.9 mm. But taking the phone in hand does not make it heavy.

The Moto G4 Plus does not have a trademark grille given in the Moto G smartphone. But this new smartphone of Moto has given place to fingerprint sensor. It works not only on touching as a physical button. The fingerprint sensor can identify the fingerprint from any angle and in addition to sometimes, it works very well.

All the buttons have been well appointed in the phone, so that they easily reach the user. The headphone shock is upwards while the micro-USB port is given at the bottom.

In the previous smartphone of the Moto G model, instead of the curved design of the rear, this phone has a flat rear. The phone has a 16-megapixel camera with dual-tone LED flash and laser autofocus system which can be called a good upgrade.


On removing the rear panel, a non -removable 3000 mAh battery can be seen in the phone. At the same time, microSD card (132 GB support) and two micro-SIM slots are given on the edge. The Moto G4 Plus comes with Nano-to-Micro SIM card adapter. But this phone does not have an IP67 certification (water resistant) like the previous variant.

A turbopower charger (25 watt) and a headset are found in the phone’s retail box. But the wall charger is not a modular, so you will need a separate USB cable to transfer data. The quality of the headset is a bit bad and it did not fit properly in our ears.

Specification and feature
Moto G4 Plus has Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 617 processor that runs on a 1.5 GHz octa-core chip. Use of this processor HTC One A9 ,ReviewIt was also done in. This phone will get the option of 3 GB RAM and 32 GB storage and 2 GB RAM and 16 GB storage. For connectivity, options like 4G LTE (category 4), Bluetooth 4.11 low energy, dual band Wi-Fi B/G/N, GPS, Glonas, USB-OTG and FM radio have been given. You will not get the feature of NFC in this phone.


Like all Moto’s smartphones, the G4 Plus runs on the Near-Stock version of Android but this time Android Marshmallow 6.0.1.

The Moto G4 Plus has an LED of the fingerprint sensor, but we saw that it works quite well during charging. Apart from this, other motion-based gestures work easily. The phone does not have a lot of pre-loaded apps but the file manager and Google’s standard apps have been given.

Performance
The Moto G4 Plus is a good performance in which hardly anything makes it bad. In the phone, the user gets 1.2 GB RAM for use. We did not see any problem in this phone during animation and app switching. Playing the phone game is hot at the time of Samay or Data-GPS on, but not so much that it cannot be used. During the heat of the phone, you may have some problems in the camera app, which may also be due to controlling the CPU speed of the system to protect the phone from overheating. We got good benchmark figures of the phone.


Google’s photo app has replaced the gallery app, which we did not like it but it works. Full-HD videos are easily played in the phone. In the photo app, photos can be edited and video can be trimmed. Play music app has been given for music but FLAC files do not support. Equalizers for wired headphones and speakers are also provided. A single speaker gets good sound for alert in general media playback and earpiece.

One of the biggest feature of G4 Plus is the G4 Plus camera. The 16 -megapixel rear camera comes with aperture F/2.0, Phase Detection Autofocus (PDAF). The phone has a laser autofocus system to imprison the object quickly. Slider can be used to adjust tap-to-focus and exposure to focus the subject. Long tapping on the subject makes the focus locked which helps a lot. Apart from this, the camera app has slow-motion video, panorama and a professional mode. The camera app looks quite a handy when you can agreed focus, white balance, shutter speed, ISO and exposure agent in low light.

Landscape and macro photographs in daylight provide photos of good quality than before. Detailing is quite good and cameras can be taken with good color pictures. We would recommend that the HDR set an auto set as it helps in making the photos extremely good. At the same time, the pictures taken in the indoor looks right to see, but on zoom, detailing and colors look scattered. A maximum of 1080 pixels video recording can be done and photos are good in daylight and low light. A good detail selfie can be taken from the front camera in good light. Apart from this, barcode and QRCode can be read directly from the camera app itself.

battery life
In the video loop test of the Moto G4 Plus battery, Bataru supported us for 12 hours and 4 minutes, which is quite good. At the same time, we were able to run this smartphone of Moto for about one and a half days with full charge with both SIM cards in general use. The phone supports turbopower or fast charging, which causes the battery to charge quickly.


Our decision
The new smartphone of the Moto G series Moto G4 Plus can be called a welcome option that comes with performance and feature upgrade. The phone has a processor according to the need, so that Android works easily. A good fingerprint sensit, good camera and the best battery life makes the phone fantastic. Moto G4 Plus is a very good option in this price range.

The collision has become quite tight, but in our eyes, Moto G4 Plus has everything from which it makes its own place. Its most special feature is the release of Android updates on time. The G4 Plus could have been better if like the previous smartphone, it would have been given water and dust protection features. At the same time, the poor performance of the camera could also be improved in low light.

If you are looking for a phone that comes with a great feature at a low price, then Moto G4 Plus is a good option.

Review of Micromax Canvas 6

0

Recently we Micromax Canvas 6 Pro Of Review Did and now is the time of Micromax Canvas 6 review. The price of this smartphone is almost as much as Canvas Pro. The company aims to attract two different users from both these smartphones.

New Micromax Canvas 6 The specifications of the canvas are similar to the 6 Pro but it is completely different in the design, look and other features. Therefore, according to the name, this phone is not like a Canvas Pro at all. But does this phone have everything that can bring back the golden days of Micromax? Learn the features and shortcomings of this smartphone in our detailed review.

Look and design
The biggest feature of Micromax Canvas 6 is its metal body which looks very beautiful especially in Champagne Gold. The texture and finish of the phone is very good and its chamford edge makes it classy. The design of the phone is not very special in itself and anyone can easily forget it to understand it as a gionee or Honor smartphone if the logo is not given on its rear.


Sharp line is given on the phone along the edges. The phone is convenient to catch but the metal body makes it a little heavy. For good grip, the side of the phone is quite thick, but its smooth texture is afraid of slipping from the phone’s hand. The back of the phone is hole, so the phone does not feel like a block when it is holding it in hand.

The 5.5 inch IPS display given in the smartphone is of full-HD resolution which means photos look sharp. The phone can also be read easily in sunlight. There is no gorilla glass for protection that is probably removed due to the expensive metal body. The notification is not LED with an 8 -megapixus front camera at the top.


The phone has a hybrid sim tray on the left side which means either two nano-sim or a single SIM and a microSD card can be used at once. There are volume and power buttons on the right side that can be easily operated. The bottom is a micro-USB port and speaker grill while the headphone shock at the top is given.

On the rear, a 13 -megapixel camera is given with LED flash and fingerprint sensor. The sensor does not identify the fingerprint very fast but works well. We had some trouble in using the fingerprint sensor but no major problems were revealed.


On buying Micromax Canvas 6, you will get a 7.5 watt charger, data cable, screen guard, SIM tray ejector tool and an in-age headset. Overall, Canvas 6 is good to see and managed to compete with today’s smartphone. Micromax’s smartphone surely disappoints the necessary features like Gorilla Glass in this smartphone.

Specification and software
Since Canvas 6 is designed keeping in mind the lifestyle, its specification has not been given much attention. This Micromax smartphone has a MediaTek (MT6753 T) octa-core processor and 3 GB RAM. The phone has an inbuilt storage 32 GB which can be increased to 128 GB via microSD card. For connectivity, the phone has standard features like Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi B/G/N, USB OTG, GPS, FM radio and 4G LTE on both SIMs.


Talk about software, the phone has a close-to-stock version of Android Lilpop with a custom icon pack and second feature. On swiping the right side on the home screen, the user goes to the Around Service of Micromax to allow those services that have partnership with Micromax. These include ordering food, cab booking, flight booking and services like mobile, data and DTH. Apart from this, in Micromax Canvas 6, the user has also been given a cloud backup feature of Micromax, so that users can backup their contacts, call logs, SMS and other data on the cloud. Apart from this, many free apps and games are also available, whose information we Review of Canvas 6 Pro Was given in

Performance
Looking at the entire size of the phone, it can be said that it is convenient to use the phone, but its sharp edge does not give a pleasant feeling after a certain time. Apart from the metal body, we did not see any overheating problem in the phone. The phone is also hot as expected while charging and playing games for a long time.

The phone’s app performance is fine. In the benchmarking test, we got better figures than Canvas 6 Pro for Canvas 6.


The song app has been given in this phone to streaming and play the local music file. Mono speaker provides good audio quality and the coming headset brings good quality. Full-HD videos can be played from the video player. The video can also be loop or trim in the player itself.

Talk about the camera, PDAF (Phase Detection Autofocus) and focus speed is quite fantastic. However, the camera has a shutter problem which worsens in low light. Detailing in landscap photos is not bad but pictures also seem ugly in daylight. HDR mode solves this problem to a great extent and also makes photos some sharp. Macro photos come with good detailing. Pictures in low light are less than average.

A good selfie can be taken from the front camera. The camera app is not much different from Micromax’s second budget smartphone. Shooting modes are given in the app on the left side which have features like face beauty, panorama, multi-angle view, motion track and live photo. The shortcut above can lead to HDR, smile shutter and flash. By swiping upwards, many other filters can be used.

Features like face detection, voice capture, anti -shake, zero shutter delay, EIS (stabilization) can be tweeted in the camera and video settings. Apart from this, exposure and white balance can be set manually but there is no ‘pro’ mode. Videos of up to 1080 pixels can be recorded but the quality is fine.

battery life
The 3000 mAh battery in Micromax Canvas 6 lasted for 8 hours and 37 minutes in our video loop test. At the same time, during normal use, we were able to run the phone for more than a day on full charge.


Our decision
Micromax’s policy of attracting users of different fields is understood by presenting two smartphones at one price. However, the company has not been able to implement this policy properly. After seeing both the phones, the user will definitely choose Canvas 6. If Micromax had given better CPU and camera in the pro variants, one of the phones could have difficulty in the choice. Currently, Canvas 6 is a better option. This phone has a better texture, fingerprint sensor, double onboard storage and better battery life.

Micromax could make this phone better. We did not understand why the company did not give gorilla glass in this phone. Nowadays, while buying the phone, people make the most mother’s mother. Apart from this, the camera could also be better. VoLTE support or sharp Wi-Fi could also be given.

Review of Micromax Canvas 6 Pro

0

Micromax recently has its new flagship smartphone Canvas 6 And Canvas 6 Pro Was introduced. Last month, a big launch event held in Gurgaon, along with these two smartphones, was also informed about the company’s new logo and branding. Budget smartphone manufacturer Micromax has made a tremendous lead in India’s smartphone market. Now the company wants to beat its Chinese rivals like Xiaomi and LEECO, who have created a lot of upheaval in the budget segment on the basis of features, textures and prices.

The second companies are launching smartphones equipped with high-employment screen, top CPU, fingerprint sensor and metal body at a very low price. At the same time, Micromax has introduced 4 GB RAM as its trump card. Almost all the phones with a category less than Rs 10,000 have 2 GB of RAM. Today we will review Micromax’s 4 GB RAM Micromax Canvas 6 Pro and know whether this feature of Micromax really makes the phone special or proves the company wrong?


Look and design
The Canvas 6 Pro can be called Micromax’s best -looking phone so far. Instead of the cheap material used in the company’s old product, this phone has used good material. Matt on the rear is plastic rock and the edges do not give too much premium feeling. But the Black Glass is convenient to hold the phone along the side of the front. Overall, the phone looks good and you will look happy about this phone.

The front of the phone is strict but gives relief on-screen buttons. The phone has Corning Gorilla Glass 3, front camera and notification LEDs on the front. The right side has power and volume buttons. The bottom is a micro-USB port. The top is a 3.5 mm audio jack at the top.


The phone’s rear looks like HTC’s old Windows phone 8 model. Textile rear cover can be removed. There is a rear camera and flash in the middle upwards. Micromax is a recently designed new logo under it and a speaker grill at the bottom.

The battery can be separated from the phone by removing the rear cover. MicroSD card and a Nano-SIM and a micro-SIM card slot can be seen by removing the battery. On purchasing Micromax Canvas 6 Pro, you will get a charger, cable, headset, screen protector and microfiber textile box.


Specification and software
Micromax has given the MediaTek Helio X10 processor (MT6795M) running at 2 GHz in its new smartphone at a price less than Rs 15,000. Apart from this, this phone is in the headlines with 4 4 GB RAM. The phone has 16 GB storage and can be increased to 64 GB via microSD card.

Micromax Canvas 6 Pro has a 5.5 inch screen with 1080×1920 pixels resolution which can be said to be good according to this price. The phone has a 13 -megapixel rear camera and a 5 -megapixel front camera. The phone supports LTE in both SIMs. For connectivity, Wi-Fi supports 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1 and USB-OTG. The phone has a 3000 mAh battery.


This phone does not have features like fingerprint sensor, quick charging, infrared, NFC. While other smartphones of this price now come with these features. It seems that the company is considering 4 GB RAM as a unique feature for Canvas 6 Pro. Perhaps that’s why the company has signed a little compromise as a second specification.

Talk about the software, there is a lot of special in the phone. The Canvas 6 Pro runs on Android 5.1 with eapper custom skin which looks largely like stock Android. All icons look different but are not useless to look. Swift’s pre-install arrives and is set as a default keyboard. Apart from this, more than 20 apps like Clean Master, CM Security, CM Locker, Multiple Shopping Apps and Browser and some trial games come pre-loaded. All other apps can be uninstalling except Micromax’s own app center, M! Live and M!


The most special is the Around feature of Micromax. First of all U utopia ,Review) This feature seen in the launcher is not like an app. You will be able to see the around screen when swipe the homescreen on the left side. There are many category icons and search bars on the top while Google Now-Styel Cards at the bottom.

Performance
Like the second Micromax smartphone, the software of this phone does not cause much problem. The hardware of the phone also does not have any problem while doing most of the work. Although it is not that it is the most powerful hardware ever, but today mid-range smartphones are also very powerful. It cannot be said whether there is a big difference in the phone with 4 GB RAM. But we did not have any kind of problem in the phone and there was no problem in switching and opening in many apps.

The screen is shiny and crisp but the glass reflects too much which sometimes looks very bad. Colors can be called good and brightness is also good for use in daylight. Micromax Canvas 6 Pro gives a good feeling while using. But the phone camera is slightly hot during using and gaming.


The performance of the phone in our benchmarking test was good. However, it cannot be called a flagship-killer. In our video loop test, the battery lasted for 6 hours 41 minutes, which is disappointed according to today’s standard. During simple use, we were able to run the phone for a full day after charging once. But if you play games, browse a lot and record videos, then you will need to charge the phone till evening.

The phone camera is not good at all. Even in the good light of the sun, pictures come without detailing and scattered. The pictures look absolutely artificial and sometimes there is no focus, which does not make the pictures worth using. Even at night, pictures are blurred and good pictures require a lot of light. The front camera is fine for a selfie taken closely.

Our decision
Micromax has introduced the new brand with Canvas 6 Pro. Canvas 6 Pro is the first phone in the line of smartphones that strengthens the company’s grip in the Indian smartphone market. After the company’s first smartphone, this smartphone is completely different. Say in clear terms, this phone of Micromax has changed everything and texture everything compared to before. Micromax is thinking about the user.

The performance of the phone is good but it cannot be called fantastic. The phone has shortcomings like bad battery life and warmth. The bad camera disappoints the most. Overall, Micromax has introduced 4 GB RAM in the mid range as the specialty of the phone. This feature will definitely attract customers. Personally, we will have any problem in buying a 2 GB RAM phone with good battery life and other features.

HTC Desire 626 Dual SIM review

0

HTC Design 626 Dual SIM smartphone was launched globally about a year ago. But this smartphone entered India in February this year with a separate processor and dual SIM support. HTC smartphone mid range smartphone priced at Rs 13,990 Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 ,Review) And Lenovo Vibe’s 4 Note ,Review) It is expected to get a tough competition.

Today we HTC Desire 626 Dual SIM Will review the smartphone and know what this HTC smartphone is worth buying? Also, you will know, what are the features and shortcomings of this smartphone.


Look and design
The design of Dzire 626 dual SIM is similar to the second smartphone of HTC’s Desire range. The phone is made of plastic body and comes with dual tone color scheme. This phone is HTC’s popular smartphone HTC Desire 820 It is very similar to But its screen is small. The phone is convenient to catch and use. The phone is good to see and gives a pleasant feeling.

The front of the phone has a front camera and the earpiece grill at the top. There is a speaker and microphone at the bottom. However, the plastic rear panel is removable but the battery cannot be separated from the phone. The phone has a papar and volume button on the right side, upwards 3.5 mm audio shock. The bottom is a micro-USB port and a flap with two nano-sim slots and a separate microSD slot.

The rear panel has a camera, single-tone LED flash and a small hole for a microphone. Our review unit was of white color, which we needed to clean up. Overall, the layout of Dzire 626 dual SIM is new and the design of this smartphone is good according to the price.


HTC Dzire 626 Dual SIM has a 5 -inch screen with 720×1280 pixels resolution. The screen of the screen is 294 PPI. The screen is sharp and readable but color and brightness are slightly less. The color looks slightly ugly and artificial while brightness looks different in different parts of the same picture.

Specification and software
According to the specification, the Dzire 626 smartphone will be called the 2015 smartphone. This phone has an octa-core MediaTek MT 6752 running at 1.8 GHz. This processor was released in 2014 and today it is an old processor compared to the processor given in the second device available at this price. The phone has 16 GB internal storage which can be extended to (up to 32 GB) via microSD card. The phone has 2 GB RAM. The battery is 2000 mAh. The phone supports 4G (FDD band 3 and TDD band 40) in both SIM slots. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 410 processor has been given in some global variants of the phone but this variant is not available in India.

Apart from this, the phone seems to be outdated in the case of software. HTC Dzire 626 Dual SIM runs on Android 4.4.4 and the latest version is behind the entire generation. This is really strange whereas today there are other phones available on Android 6.0 in the market for less than Dzire 626.


Apart from this, the same thing applies to the sense of HTC. The skin is old and equipped with less features than the new version. From notification sheds to app switcher seems to be old.

It is obvious that HTC Dzire 626 is lagged behind those smartphones in dual SIM hardware and software which are present in the market for less than Rs 15,000 in the market today. The phone also does not have a fingerprint sensor. Many options are also not available due to old software. These include app permission. In addition, Lenovo Vibe’s 4 notes and Redmi Note 3 have more resolution screens, RAM, better speakers, audio enhances and more powerful processors.


Camera
HTC Dzire 626 Dual SIM has a 13-megapixel rear camera with single-tone LED flash. The phone has a 5 megapixel front camera. Both cameras can record up to 1080 pixels. The rear camera can shoot multi-angle, panorama, motion tracking, HDR and slow-motion videos.

The camera app in Dzire 626 is not like HTC’s typical camera app but many recent budget smartphones are similar. The disappointing thing is that HTC Sense is a good userinterface skin as its camera app is excellent. However, the app given in this phone is also not bad. All work can be done easily in the app and photos can also be quickly taken.


However, the camera of this phone disappoints. The photos look blurred and means that there is a lot of sharpness in the photos. Despite the object appearing clean, it is difficult to capture photos in motion. Shiny views over over saturated while Dal photos come dark and scattered.

The same problem is seen in low light and close-up shot. Close-up shots are also blurred, scattered and were washed out. In clear terms, the photos come from HTC Dzire 626 of less than average quality. No phone camera in this price range cannot be compared.


Performance
According to today’s standard, the performance of HTC Dzire 626 Dual SIM is not very bad. But it cannot be called very good. The phone is sometimes hanging but easy to run the phone. Old software caused difficulty in running a huge app. The apps are suddenly closed but the phone is convenient for general use. However, the phone has nothing that is offering other phones with this price.

In our benchmarking test, we had to compare HTC Dzire 626 to Lenovo Vibi S1 with this processor. Graphic benchmark figures were excellent but this phone elsewhere Lenovo Vibe S1 ,Review) Also could not compete. It is worth noting the price of Vibe S1 now Reduced to Rs 12,999 It is left which is less than Dzire 626.

HTC Dzire 626 Dual SIM has a 2000 mAh battery which lasted 6 hours 5 minutes in our video loop test. Battery life is much less than the battery life of other devices nowadays. The battery of the phone is also spent very quickly in normal uses. We could not run the phone even for a day with a full charge battery. The mono speaker of the phone is also bad and gives a very slow sound. However, Wi-Fi and cellular network antenna work very well in the phone and we are able to work well on our network.


Our decision
This is a period when a premium smartphone takes a few months to become old. There is no reason for HTC launching one year old smartphone at this price. Customers also know that today there are other options in this price in the market or with higher latest specification at a lower price. The fantastic design of the phone is also like another device (according to the price range), we do not understand any reason to buy this smartphone.

HTC Dzire 626 Dual SIM is not built for 2016 at all. This is a useless effort in an attempt by the company to maintain its hold in the Indian market. The phone runs on older hardware and software. Battery life is poor and features are less than expected. We would advise you not to buy HTC Dzire 626 dual SIM and instead choose an option like Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 or 4 Note of Lenovo Vibe.

Review of Vivo V3 Max

0

Vivo has now become part of the world’s top 5 smartphone vendor list. It would not be wrong to call this journey amazing.

vivo_v3max_main2_ndtv

The company recently introduced handsets Vivo V3 and V3 Max. Their price is Rs 17,980 and 23,980 respectively. It would not be wrong to consider V3 as part of the ‘Value for Money’ segment.

Today we Vivo V3 Max Will review to Most of its features are mid-range smartphones, but it is equipped with powerful chipset. Let’s know in detail about Vivo V3 Max.
vivo_v3max_main_ndtv

Look and design
Vivo V3 Max is not a small phone than anywhere. It has a 5.5 -inch screen and weighs 168 grams. It would not be wrong to call it a phablet, it is not at all for those who want to handle the phone easily. Its body is of metal. However the finish is a bit indifferent.

In the front of the phone, a small Vivo logo will be seen in the top. Apart from this, the front camera and proximity sensors are also on top. Capacitive buttons are downwards. Sadly, they are not backlit. In such a situation, it is not as easy to use them in darkness.

vivo_v3max_logo

The phone has power and volume buttons on the right side and hybrid sim tray on the left. The top has a 3.5 mm socket and the lower back has micro-USB ports, microphones and speakers.

The camera, flash, vivo logo and fingerprint sensor are present on the back of the phone. The sensor does its work well. You will be able to store only up to 5 fingerprints in the sensor. It is possible to unlock the phone without active.

The screen of the phone is full-HD. It is very sharp and in high light, there is not much difficulty in reading anything on the screen. Color is vibrant and suitable.

vivo_v3max_back_ndtv

Specification and software
The new octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 chipset has been used in Vivo V3 Max. Snapdragon 652 is a very capable mid-range chipset. Qualcomm claims that its performance is with flagship grade. It has 4 GB RAM which will work to further strengthen the performance. Inbuilt storage is 32 GB which can be increased through microSD card (up to 128 GB).

The phone has a 3000 mAh battery and also has support for USB OTG. It is a pity that you will be able to use only two SIM cards or a SIM card and microSD card at one time. The dual-engine charging feature has been given in the phone to quickly charge the battery.

vivo_v3max_chin_ndtv

The V3 Max smartphone runs on Android 5.1, above which Vivo’s custom Funtch OS 2.5 has been used. It is very different from other Android smartphones. Because Funtch has been designed like this, give it a feeling of iOS. Settings app especially the settings of other Android phones are very different.

There is no doubt that it is an Android phone. But on most occasions it seems that an attempt has been made to copy the iOS. If you are accustomed to using Android, then it will take time for you to meet Vivo V3 Max’s OS.

vivo_v3max_bottom_ndtv

Camera
The Vivo V3 Max has a 13 -megapixel primary camera and a single tone LED flash. It also has an 8 megapixel front camera. With both cameras you will be able to record 1080 pixels videos. Apart from this, they are also equipped with popular videos and photo mode like Panorama, Slow Motion and HDR.

The camera app has a special care of simplicity. Apart from this, it is a feeling of freshness in using it. There is not much difficulty in accessing important control. It has no settings menu. Manual mode is also present, which gives you more control of photography.

vivo_v3max_camerashot

Photos taken from Vivo V3 Max came very sharp and bright. But the color looked a bit sad and excited. There was no shortage of details in the pictures. They do not break even when they zoom.

The camera has a digit in capturing the moving object. It blurred on most occasions. The video recorded exactly. Overall, pictures came sharp on most occasions, but they cannot be called fantastic.

vivo_v3max_camerashot

Performance
In terms of performance, Vivo V3 Max manages to win heart. It is far ahead of most phones of this price range. This phone easily completes difficult tasks. Playing the game on it is even more fun. This was possible due to having 4 GB RAM. With its help, many apps continue to run at a time but the effect does not fall on the performance. The benchmark test results of the handset are also excellent. The funny thing is that this type of midrange smartphones are able to beat the flagship phone very easily in terms of performance.

The phone’s battery video loop lasted for 11 hours 36 minutes. It will easily last for a day on common use.

vivo_v3max_right

This phone becomes a little hot at the time of playing games and charging. 4G and Wi-Fi connectivity features do excellent work. The phone does not have difficulty in staying connected to the network.

Our decision
Vivo V3 Max is a very capable mid-range smartphone that manages to win all departments. Its texture is good. The fingerprint sensor works fast and accurate. The screen is good and performance is also excellent. Battery life is also satisfactory. If some shortcomings of the camera department are ignored, then this phone passes with good marks in every department. Just … our complaint is with the price of Vivo V3 Max. It does not match the product at all.

The most correct comparison of V3 Max Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Which will be available at half the price. If you want to spend Rs 25,000 for the phone, then Xiaomi Mi 5 ,Review) There is a better package.

Apart from this, there are many phones in the market that give similar experiences in less money, such as Lenovo Vibe X3, Google Nexus 5X and OnePlus 2. However, if you are looking for an Android phone that gives a feeling of using iOS and its performance is also good then it would not be wrong to consider Vivo V3 Max.

LG’s 7 LTE review

0

LG recently K10 LTE And K7 LTE Smartphone in India LaunchedThese smartphones of LG’s new ‘budget series’ were first introduced in CES 2016. K10 of LTE Review After now, 7 LTE of Bari Ha was investigated.

The 7 LTE smartphone has more affordable than 10 LTE but its effect appears in feature and specifications. 7 LTE collision of Rs 9,500 Lenovo Vibe’s 5 Plus ,Review, Coolpad Note 3 And Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 ,ReviewIt is from the base model of. Know what shortcomings and qualities we saw in the review of 7 LTE reviews.


Design and look
The 7 LTE is designed in peble finish just like K10 LTE. It is very difficult to differentiate between the two phones. Curved edges are given in the display that makes the phone beautiful. The rear cover of the phone is textured but the 7 LTE grip is good. The phone has a 5 -megapixel front camera with a proximity sensor. Don’t know why, but LG has removed the ambient light sensor from this phone, which means you will have to adjust the screen brightness manually. According to the plastic phone, the design of the phone cannot be said to be bad.

One of the biggest flaws of 7 LTE is its 5-inch in-cell touch display with just 480×854 pixels resolution. The density of the screen is 195 PPI that makes the text and photos look rough. The viewing angle is still fantastic and the phone can be used in sunlight. The charging port and headphone shock are given at the bottom while the rest of the buttons are given on the rear.

On purchasing 7 LTE, you will get one charger, data cable, headset and instruction manual. Like 10 LTE, you will not get a flip cover with this phone. The quality of accessory coming with K7 LTE is good. But K7 LTE does not feel like 10 LTE at all, but its price is also low. The phone has an agreement with low resolution display which is not good for this screen size phone. Despite the price of around 10,000, we did not understand the reason for the removal of light ambient sensor by the company. Notification LED has not been given in 7 LTEs like K10 LTE.

Software and specifications
LG’s 7 LTE has Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 quad-core processor and 1.5 GB RAM. In the benchmarking test, we launched this phone hall in this phone hall, only figures like Infocus Bingo 10, which were priced below Rs 5,000. The general performance of the phone can be called well.


Talk about the second specification, then 8 GB of inbuilt storage can be increased to 32 GB via microSD card. The phone supports Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi B/G/N, FM radio and GPS. LG’s 7 LTE has not been given NFC or OSB OTG support. K7 LTE has two Nano SIM card slots. The phone supports 3G on both SIMs. Apart from this, VoLTE and VoY-Fi support is also present but only in the first SIM. The phone has a 2125 mAh removable battery.

The software of the phone is similar to the 10 LTE of the lag. LG has given a customized version of Android 5.1.1 Lollipop in K7 LTE. The phone has no other apps other than LG backup and smartworld. Theme, font, ringtone etc. can be downloaded to customize the phone. At the bottom navigation bar can be legally toes to the notification shed. Apart from changing the lock screen effect, quick launch shortcuts for the app can also be edited.

Performance
Despite the low-end processor, multitasking and apps can be easily run from 7 LTEs. However, the phone has a attention to a attention, but this cannot be called the phone completely bad. Heavy apps, especially the game, take some time to load and the performance is also not very good. Photos and texts are not as sharp as we expected. The phone is not very hot during normal use, but the phone becomes very hot at the time of gaming and charging. 4G works well and we did not see any problem in call quality.


Full-HD video is easily played in the phone. But there is no AC3 support like some audio Codex. The music player supports Flack Audio File. The audio quality of the phone with the headset coming with K7 LTE can be said to be good. Out of 8 GB storage, only 3.4 GB is available for use, so the user will need a microSD card.

The 5 megapixel rear camera brings fine pictures in daylight. Landskap photos do not come with a lot of details and the colors are slightly pressed. In motion, we also took some great sharp photos. Camera shutter has a lot of trouble which increases in low light. Photos are not good from the camera in low light. Close up shots are very good from the phone, but once again do not get good colors. Recording 720 pixels from both rear and front cameras can be recorded from the camera. The video quality is fine but if you do not keep your hands stable and the video may cause a lot of flicker.

The camera app has very few features. Like K10 LTE, you will not get features like HDR, Panorama, Filter in this phone.


battery life
Due to the low-regulation display and low-power processor, this phone is able to give good battery life. Good battery life is the most special feature of this phone. In our video loop test, we were able to playback from LG’s 7 LTE for 11 hours 37 minutes. At the same time, during normal use, we were able to run the phone without charging the whole day. Quick does not support the phone.

Our decision
Today, in the budget smartphone segment with tremendous feature in the market, 7 LTE of LG is not known anywhere. Except for a good battery life and design, the phone looks backward everywhere. The phone is very expensive with a price of Rs 9,500. There are phones like Lenovo Vibe’s 5 Plus, Coolpad Note 3 and Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 with lower price and better performance in the market.

Like K10 LTE, LG needs to improve the price of K7 LTE. According to the features provided in the phone, it fits in the category of a phone in India with less than 5,000. LG needs to take the right steps.

Asus Zenfone Zoom Review

0

Once again an attempt has been made to introduce the old technology in a new style. Many years ago, Nokia launched an N90 smartphone with optical zoom smartphone camera. But due to this, the weight of the phone increased and due to heavy, these smartphones were not liked.

About two years ago, Samsung also launched the Zoom of Galaxy ‘last time with this technique. The 10X optical zoom was the most special feature of this phone, but in appearance it was more digital camera than a smartphone.

Asus is often used with her hybrid device and now the new name is Zenfone Zoom in this episode. This smartphone has an optical zoom and the matter of relief is that it has not been compromised due to its large smartphone. Will Zenfone Zoom be able to give a new life to this ‘new’ smartphone segment? What is Asus Zenfone to buy? Today we will review this smartphone of Asus.


Look and design

The phone’s unibody aluminum frame looks good and also gives a good grip to the phone. Apart from this, its round edges also make it convenient to catch it. Overall, the phone looks good.

The 5.5 -inch full HD IPS display is surrounded by quite thick bezel. Capacitive navigation button is not backlit and notification LED is given.


The phone has a standard micro-USB 2.0 port at the bottom. On the right side is a two-step camera button and a separate button for video recording. The camera app will open on pressing any one a little bit. Volume and power buttons are given at the top which is easy to use.

The rear cover made of real leather is removable, although it can be easily deemed to be made of Fox leather. There is a large disc in place of the camera where Asus has fixed the zoom lens very beautifully. Which means that like Samsung and other phones, it is not a protruding lens. For this reason, Zenfone zoom is very light and some good pictures can be taken from it.

This phone of Asus comes with single micro-sim and expandable storage (through microSD card) support. The phone’s battery is non-removable. The Zenfone Zoom comes with a Lenayard, Data Cable, Charger and In-Aer headset. According to the price of the phone, the quality of accessory coming with Zenfone Zoom is quite good.


Overall, the phone looks different from the other phone due to the camera placement on the rear. But apart from this, it is similar to another Zenfone smartphone. The texture and look of the phone is quite good and asus should be praised for making a smartphone of just 11.9 millimeters with optical zoom lenses.

Specification and software

Gallery apps like some default Android apps will always show you photos and videos from cloud service. Asus apps like Photo Kolaj and Minimuvi are given with gallery to share and customize photos and videos. Apart from this, you can also customize the interface through theme, animation and icon packs.

Performance
Talk about performance, Zenfone is similar to another smartphone with zenfone zoom premium feature. Apps in the phone are due to any trouble and heavy games can also be played easily. However, while playing the game, the phone is slightly hot and it also costs the phone battery soon. 4G works well on Band 40 and we did not see any problem in its use. Along with a software update, we got to see a new feature called Quick Find which can be seen by swiping down on the home screen. This is a universal search tool so that not only you can access your phone files but can also easily search web and app.


The benchmark figures of Zenfone Zoom were also fantastic. However, it lagged far behind today’s top hardware phones.

Although 4K videos cannot be recorded from the phone, 4K videos can be played. The default video player is fine but the music player is better. You can assemble the songs in the folder, change the theme of the player and set the audio through the asus audio wisdom. The headset that comes with the phone provides good quality audio.


Camera
Now we have come on the most special feature of the phone i.e. on the camera of the phone. The phone has a 13-megapixel camera and comes with a 10-element Hoya lens. The lens has been arranged in such a way that you can enjoy 3X optical zoom without taking out the lens. The camera has features like laser autofocus and optical image stabilization to take excellent pictures.

Landscape and macro photos appear with details on the phone’s screen in daylight. Colors come well, although the colors also become more saturated than auto optimization. Lens blur-free shot can be taken even if there is a 3X zoom. A lack of slight sharpness can be seen in the object when there is maximum optical zoom, but this only appears to be zoomed.

Photos taken in artificial lights in the indoor also come without noise. But in low light, photos come with low details. The focus speed of the camera is also very good, but it takes some time to go to the zoom level while zoom in the viewfinder. A great selfie can be taken from a 5 megapixel camera in good light.


Asus’s camera app is well designed. Some shooting mode and manual mode are given at all above the software shutter button. The physical button also works quite well. Video recording of good quality up to 1080 pixels can also be done. The camera also has the option of slow-motion video. However, 4K video recording cannot be done. Dual LED flash also works quite well but only for short distances.

battery life
The 3000 mAh battery given in the phone supported us for 6 hours and 58 minutes in our video loop test which is less than average. During general use, we were able to run a lot of shooting and Zenfone zoom on 4G without charging 18-20 hours. The good thing is that the phone supports fast charging and within half an hour the battery is charged up to 40 percent.


Our decision
Asus Zenfone Zoom is the only phone available in the market with a premium and optical zoom from all sides. It is competed with Samsung Galaxy S6 range and Nexus 6P with a price of Rs 37,999. Both these smartphones have cameras equipped with magnificent features. Talk about new discovery, Zenfone zoom is really better than others, but if we talk about image quality, then it falls behind these two smartphones. Apart from this, lack of low-regulation display, old Android version, weak battery life and 4 is also the shortcomings of Zenfone zoom.

The high price of the phone can also be a hindrance in its sales, but if the company reduces the price, then it is not harm to buy a new phone. Asus has done a good job with the design and texture of the phone. Due to the optical zoom, a lot of compromises have to be made in the phone and that is why such phones have never become popular.

Certainly this camera is a good idea but we think that big sensors and a camera with better image quality is better than it. Whose Zenfone Zoom is not a flagship smartphone of Asus. It seems that the company has tried to give something new to customers before the company’s next generation phone arrives.
