Realme is putting a physical mirror on the back of the phone to help with rear-camera selfies. It feels nostalgic, but also a bit desperate for a unique feature in a crowded market.
The new Zenfone Selfie, Zenfone 2 Deluxe, and Zenfone 2 Laser 5.5 from Asus will go up for pre-orders on Flipkart from Wednesday? Any guesses when they will start shipping? Which one of the three are you looking forward to the most? Answer and stand a chance to win a smartphone + goodies from Asus. Here's a little refresher on what the phones offer. The ZenFone Selfie comes with dual rear and front 13-megapixel cameras. The front camera's 88-degree wide-angle lens, f/2.2 aperture, dual LED front flash, and 140-degree panoramas ensure you and your friends will never miss out on the perfect selfie. The rear camera's just as good, with dual LED flash of its own, and f/2.0 aperture for improved low-light performance. The ZenFone Selfie comes in stylish Pure White, Chic Pink and Aqua Blue colours, making sure you stand out from the crowd. It's backed by an octa-core 64-bit CPU, 3GB RAM, and Gorilla Glass 4 for protection. The Asus ZenFone 2 5.5 Laser looks modest in comparison on paper, but it's no slouch either when it comes to features and specifications. It packs in a 5.5-inch HD display with Gorilla Glass 4, with 2GB RAM and dual SIM 4G support. The highlight of the device is its rear camera's laser auto-focus technology, which enables near-instant focus as fast as 0.3 seconds, especially in dim light conditions. The 13-megapixel camera packs in a five-element lens and f/2.0 aperture for good low light performance. The ZenFone 2 Laser 5.5 comes with ZenUI which has features like ZenMotion, SnapView, Trend Micro Security, and ZenUI Instant Updates that enhance usability, ensure security and privacy, and deliver a seamless user experience. Last, but definitely not the least is the Asus ZenFone 2 Deluxe, which brings the popular ZenFone 2 in a new avatar with enhanced storage.

Asus is hosting its biggest ever India event in New Delhi on Thursday and while there will be several new products, the stars of the show will of course be the new ZenFones. The ZenFone Selfie in particular looks like a delight, with its dual rear and front 13-megapixel cameras. The front camera's 88-degree wide-angle lens, f/2.2 aperture, dual LED front flash, and 140-degree panoramas ensure you and your friends will never miss out on the perfect selfie. The rear camera's just as good, with dual LED flash of its own, and f/2.0 aperture for improved low-light performance. The ZenFone Selfie comes in stylish Pure White, Chic Pink and Aqua Blue colours, making sure you stand out from the crowd. It's backed by an octa-core 64-bit CPU, 3GB RAM, and Gorilla Glass 4 for protection. All this at a price that's likely less than you think. The Asus ZenFone 2 Laser looks modest in comparison on paper, but it's no slouch either when it comes to features and specifications. It packs in a 5-inch HD display with Gorilla Glass 4, with 2GB RAM and dual SIM 4G support. The highlight of the device is its rear camera's laser auto-focus technology, which enables near-instant focus as fast as 0.3 seconds, especially in dim light conditions. The 13-megapixel camera packs in a five-element lens and f/2.0 aperture for good low light performance. The ZenFone 2 Laser's 70 percent screen-to-body ratio means it's comfortable to hold in hand, despite having a large display. The ZenUI comes with features like ZenMotion, SnapView, Trend Micro Security, and ZenUI Instant Updates that enhance usability, ensure security and privacy, and deliver a seamless user experience. When Asus finally reveals the price of the ZenFone 2 Laser, you will find that it's surprisingly affordable and great value at the price. Last, but definitely not the least is the Asus ZenFone 2 Deluxe, which brings the popular ZenFone 2 in a new avatar with enhanced storage. What will be price of the three phones - ZenFone Selfie, ZenFone 2 Laser, and ZenFone 2 Delxue? Leave a comment with your guesses and stand a chance to win a smartphone and other goodies from Asus.

Hi Guys, This is Rajesh and today I am sharing my views on the LeEco Le 1s that I have been using for the past month. Yes, we all know that LeEco, formerly known as Letv, launched two smartphones in the market - Le 1s and Le Max. The Le 1s is priced at Rs. 10999 and the Le Max (64GB) is priced at Rs. 32999. Le 1s is their lowest priced phone but at the same time gives features of a flagship phone. LeEco claims that they are selling Le 1s at lesser than BOM (Bill of Materials) price (which is more than Rs. 16000). Let’s move on to the review then. BUILD & DESIGNThe first time I opened the box I was like “Wow, awesome!”, yes guys it looks great, it really looks fantastic. One of the most beautiful phones I have ever seen. The mirror-surfaced fingerprint sensor, a smart looking camera and all metal body - all these things make Le 1s a looker! It looks premium and it feels premium. The weight is a bit on the upper side but still with a 5.5-inch Full HD display and bezel-less design it is very handy and easy to use. 9/10 SCREEN & MULTIMEDIALe 1s comes with a 5.5-inch LCD IPS Display covered by Gorilla Glass 3. The display is great with awesome colours and contrast levels. It is sharp enough and watching Full HD videos on the display is a visual treat. Mediatek’s clear motion technology is there, so there is not even a single frame drop. It can compete with flagship phones for sure.9/10 CAMERALe 1s comes with a 13 MP rear camera and a 5 MP front camera. Rear camera is an ISOCELL unit with PDAF and high aperture for low light capturing. Still, with all these features, this is where Le 1s suffers a bit. The daylight pictures are good with good details and natural colours but in lowlight the camera is just okay. The pictures turned out to be noisy and macro shots turned out to be “whitish” in low light. I also found some reddish tint on the photo. Front camera is good enough for video calling but for selfie lovers it will be a “hit or miss” as the camera works sometime good and sometime bad. Lots of software optimisation is needed in the camera section as the basic things like “beauty mode” is missing. I hope LeEco will release an OTA update which can rectify these issues. UPDATE: The latest OTA improved the camera experience by a huge margin – both front and rear cameras!8.5/10 PERFORMANCEThis is where Le 1s outshines every other smartphone in the same category. Le 1s has Mediatek’s current flagship 64-bit Octa Core Processor MT6795 Turbo (aka Helio x10 Turbo) clocked at 2.2 Ghz. Almost every other smartphone in this price range uses cheaper processors while LeEco uses this flagship processor. We can find this processor even in the flagship phone of HTC M9 (Which costs almost 45 K). Le 1s also has 3GB RAM with the system using almost 1.5 GB RAM but still the phone performs very well. No lag at all. Almost every high end game plays butter smooth. I have tested Asphalt 8 and Temple Run, both run fluidly. As far as the performance is concerned, it is really a beast. It warms a little bit, but that is common for all metal smartphones, so not a deal breaker for me.9.5/10 CONNECTIVITYLe 1s supports 2G/3G/4G networks in India. Everything is working fine. I didn’t experience any network issue so far. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are up to the mark. Le 1s supports dual SIM - one micro and one nano. Both are working perfectly fine. A small negative side is that it doesn’t support VoLTE, so for Reliance Jio users it is a deal breaker. Still it satisfied me. Thumbs up!8.5/10 MEMORYLe 1s comes with 32 GB of internal memory which is really good considering the price. It doesn’t support SD cards but it supports OTG. I was able to connect a 64 GB pen drive through USB Type C OTG cable and it was really fast and I had a nice experience. Overall at this price range it is really good. 8/10 SOUND QUALITYThe external speakers perform well and after plugging in earphones, it sounds really great. It is superior to the competition in this price range. Soothing to the ears and a good option for audiophiles.8.5/10 PROS:Stunning design Premium FeelGreat DisplayGood Speakers & Sound Quality CONS:Okay CameraNo VoLTENo External SD card supportConsidering the price point of 10999, LeEco provides a super “value for money” product which can break all records in the Indian mobile market. As their tag suggests a #SuperPhone at a #SuperPrice…Overall Rating: 8.5/10Verdict: Paisa Wasool..!
