"Two Beats"   ASUS zenfone2
—— zenfone2  "Two Beats"
Introduction


The last reply said zenpower Mobile power supply LolliFlash Dual color temperature fill light zenflash Xenon external flash Three external accessories of ASUS mobile phones, known as "Three Faces", have attracted many eyeballs and heated discussions. As the saying goes, the prelude warms up, and the main character enters the stage. In this chapter, insects will focus on zenfone2 Information about mobile phones. In this chapter, the first shot of the insect is arranged zenfone2 Impression, second shot zenfone2 There are two chapters of connotation. The dictionary explains the so-called "pat" It refers to the verb patting, such as clapping hands, which can also be used for photography, such as shooting, and even for flattery to ridicule. The first shot of insects is the shot of shooting, mainly taking zenfone2 Please explain the appearance, system, configuration and other basic information to your guests. The second clap has two meanings. One is to flatter zenfone2 Good. Second, slap bricks and spit zenfone2 Slot.  


Asus as a well-known IT Brand, bug started to deal with it more than ten years ago, motherboard, graphics card PC , laptop PC Peripherals, etc. Coincidentally, Bug has had several opportunities to experience ASUS mobile phones this year, and the experience time is relatively long. As the saying goes, "The distance shows the power, and the time shows the people", so ASUS zenfone2 The understanding is also quite profound. Just borrow @ Play computer one hundred community    Let's share our experience with all mobile phone enthusiasts and manufacturers.  


At the beginning of the experience article, I remind you that, zenfone2 Price of. In fact, this is what ordinary consumers are most concerned about, and it is also the reference basis for our horizontal comparison with mobile phones of the same price and category in the experience evaluation. Zenfone2 Standard edition z3560 processor +2GB Memory +16GB Storage space at one thousand two hundred and ninety-nine Yuan; High configuration version z3560 processor +4GB Memory +32GB Storage space at one thousand six hundred and ninety-nine Yuan; Top configuration version z3580 processor +4GB Memory +64GB Storage space at one thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Yuan. Worm got the top version zenfone2 one thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine The price of yuan can be positioned as a mid-range model between low-end entry and high-end flagship in the current mobile phone market. This is an important precondition for everyone's psychological expectations and the evaluation of mobile phones.  


There is a saying that "a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend". Some of the insect's understanding and experience may not be comprehensive and correct, but just a single point of view. We have the right to offer a brick to attract jade. Please comment and correct.  
Let's get down to business and shoot!  


[Initial shooting zenfone2 Impression]


about zenfone2 The experience impression of insects six Sentence: paranoid and pursuing the ultimate appearance, tough but unrestrained configuration, stubborn and capricious system, personality and interesting highlights, sullen and insisting on the application of personality, boring but hopeful photography. Don't talk nonsense, explain them one by one as follows.  
one )Bias and pursuit of extreme appearance
 
zenfone2 The appearance characteristics of insects can be summarized as solid and thick, back arc rounded corner, star track stripe, black edge rough frame)

In terms of detail design, zenfone2 They are paranoid, taking the axisymmetric, simple style to the extreme, such as key switch, flash, camera, volume key logo The charging ports are all designed on one central axis. Even for the sake of visual beauty, we have to sacrifice humanized and convenient design.
(Open the rear cover, you can see zenfone2 With two mini SIM Card slot, one micro SD Card slot, which can be connected and mobile through double cards 2g 3g 4g All networks are connected, and the storage space is expanded. The battery is designed to be inseparable.)

  In general, Zenfone2 It is not flattering. It is definitely not a fashion machine. But as business people, they are busy and busy. For them, the mobile phone with stable and reliable performance, strong and durable physique, and a sense of touch is the best assistant and tool. The borderless and curved screen seems to be a little smaller, fresher, more delicate, less open-minded and rough. At the same time, five point five Inch screen, thick and curved body, the simple and honest appearance can not be seen by cute girls. Therefore, zenfone2 Male business people should be the market positioning crowd.

(This is zenfone2 Compared with the thinnest vivo x5max A group of photos of both phones five point five However, in terms of design concept, cultural connotation and market positioning, it shows two different schools. We cannot arbitrarily say who is good and who is bad. After all, everyone has his own love.)  
Please do not doubt that such mobile phones can have a market in the light and thin era. Just like the broadcast level camera and professional level SLR have not disappeared in the era of light and thin audio and video. Thick, is often synonymous with professional. Heavy business mobile phones, whether now or in the future, must have value.  

 
two )Strong but extensive configuration
 

ZenFone2 High configuration version is equipped with 2.3GHz Of Atom Z3560 Processor, the first processor in the world 4GB Running memory, equipped with five point five inch 1080p display, 64GB The front and rear cameras are five hundred Wanhe one thousand and three hundred Ten thousand pixels, support dual card dual standby dual pass, battery capacity is 3000mAh

(actually tested by Antu rabbit zenfone2 Detailed hardware configuration and introduction)
(You can see the score of Anthare and the record display of the background running program 4G It seems that the transportation and storage will never be satisfied. It is really inch long and inch strong, and the memory becomes more and more smooth)

zenfone2 The strong performance is also reflected in the compatibility and drive of the video format. The video test results are as above, which can be said to be excellent)  
 
We can see that based on the robust hardware configuration, zenfone2 The hardware performance of 46000+ However, in terms of use, it is exceptionally smooth. In the actual test, a large number of programs were run in the background at the same time, and there was still no problem of stuck. Zenfone2 A rather wayward configuration may disdain the optimization of the system. The use of system resources is quite extensive. Almost all the built-in programs of the system will run in the background, and even when the system is powered off and restarted, it cannot be closed. You must forcibly close the application interface one by one through the settings.  
You may have noticed that in the evaluation, my zenfone2 Identified as ASUS-Z00ADA , not zenfone2 It seems that Anthare's recognition of ASUS mobile phones is not perfect.  
 
 
three )A stubborn and wayward system
 
zenfone2 Displaying the system interface used)
 

The stubborn and capricious system mainly means zenfone2 Based on  5.0 Customized ZenUI However, in terms of system optimization and packaging degree, it is still relatively elementary, and it is basically a state of loyalty to the "original". Although in terms of humanized operation and intelligent body feeling, zenfone2 Yes. However, the overall feeling is that the brand style and features are not integrated enough, and there is a fragmented sense of adding functions. In particular, some functions that should be integrated into the system settings should exist in the form of a single app, resulting in a large number of built-in setting apps in the menu. There is no strong system recognition. When you look at the system interface, you will know that this is ASUS's mobile phone. In this regard, Huawei, Lenovo vivo oppo Xiaomi, Meizu, etc. have done a very good job, which is also the trend of mobile phone development. In this regard, ASUS still needs to work harder. This question will be specially discussed later.  

 
four )Personalized and interesting highlights
 

Although the overall system seems somewhat arbitrary zenfone2 Some built-in multimedia interesting applications developed by ASUS also have some highlights. Due to space constraints, here are just a few examples.  
First, Asustek's photo collage photoCollage . Many mobile phones have jigsaw album applications, which are similar in use, but ASUS is more interesting and international.

The second is in ASUS camera gif Shooting, delayed shooting, etc eighteen Among them, there are some personalized shooting modes with strong playability.

For example, animation mode.
  




 

Another example is time-lapse photography.  
Time-lapse photography  








The third is ASUS micro film.  
This is a video editing application similar to Huisheng Huiying or making an electronic album. The modular operation can easily produce a compelling movie. Therefore, the operation is very simple.  
Add a few photos at random, and you can make a very interesting video:  






five )The application of sullen and persistent character

 
We are experiencing zenfone2 Never forget the ASUS Of logo ASUS It is the symbol of an era, and also a synonym for the hardware king. ASUS Its products cover almost the entire information digital industry chain. Therefore, Zenfone2 It is not a person fighting, it is a "system" product. Maybe many experiencers are complaining zenfone2 The compatibility problem is that it is ungrounded. But few people put their heart into it Do It Later Party Link Share Link What’s Next WebStorage PC Link Remote Link Splendid Wait for the application of system integration to experience it carefully.  
In fact, zenfone2 Is to stick to its system, its ASUS ecosystem, and there are many similar in ASUS ecosystem iOS Cross platform applications like Microsoft ecosystem. Of course, given the influence of ASUS, the popularity of its products cannot reach the level of Apple and Microsoft. Therefore, these personalized applications are called sullen by the insect image.  
In the ASUS ecosystem, there is no lack of easy-to-use, unique and innovative applications. When writing this evaluation, Bug also checked some materials and introductions, and found that these applications are very practical and easy to use. Here, a brief introduction will not be carried out one by one. If you are interested, you can Baidu yourself.  


Do It Later : It is a very useful scheduling application. If you are not used to it at the beginning, it does not mean that you will be unable to leave it.  
Party Link : It is a magical wireless photo sharing application. You will be fascinated if you use it. If you don't believe it, try it.  
Share Link : is a very convenient file sharing portal.  
What’s Next : is a very interesting calendar plug-in, intuitive and fun.  
WebStorage : Yes by ASUS Subordinate eCareme I don't need to say more about the free network hard disk service developed.  
PC Link : Not to mention it.  
Remote Link : Pair with mobile phone PC It's cool to think about it.  
Splendid : The bright color technology of graphics card developed by ASUS enables the screen display to do whatever you want through the combination of hardware and software.  
These original applications are used as selling points and gimmicks on many mobile phones, and ASUS is obviously too low-key. If we consider ASUS mobile phones, tablets, laptops and even PC The seamless and compatible integration of cross platforms will be such a powerful intelligent application. In modern commerce, these applications will really enable users to do more with less.  


six )Dull but hopeful photography
 

Zenfone2 The camera application is very intuitive, but the menu settings are very detailed and professional. Plus what I mentioned earlier eighteen Scene modes can be selected, so to speak zenfone2 The camera is very powerful and worth looking forward to. But in practical application, it is found that zenfone2 The camera's photo performance does not seem to match its powerful and rich settings, and it is generally not warm and hot, which is not satisfactory.

zenfone2 Photo interface)  
although zenfone2 The photographing effect of is not as strong as the setting, but it is definitely not as bad as you expected. There are a lot of pictures in the article of insect evaluation, and many of them are just using zenfone2 It was filmed, and there was no post adjustment at all. I don't know whether you can recognize it. In the early evaluation, I also gave zenfone2 I have proposed to optimize and integrate the camera functions to make the interface simple and user-friendly. After all, mobile phone photography is more about the occasion and interest in life. The real pursuit of quality and effect will not be taken with mobile phones.  
Next, please enjoy the insect for a while zenfone2 There is no cut and later sample film taken (please refer to my microblog for the original film)


 

[Second shot zenfone2 Connotation

  
Through the last section, I believe that you are right zenfone2 There has been a relatively comprehensive and objective understanding.  
Especially when insects comment on its shortcomings, they are really unkind or impolite. But since childhood, teachers have taught us that we should look at problems comprehensively and thoroughly, and not be arbitrary or extreme. Playing with mobile phones is like watching people. Some people look stunning at first sight, but gradually become dull; Some people look very unpleasant at first glance, but the longer they communicate, the more unusual they feel. Zenfone2 It's just that.  
be honest, zenfone2 Whether it is industrial design or system optimization, from the perspective of modern and fashionable mobile phones, there are many hard injuries, such as the retro stubborn wide body, the opinionated key layout, the original cumbersome Android system, the awkward and rigid compatibility problems... But, the so-called "one inch has its own advantages". Zenfone2 Powerful hardware configuration, strong adaptability and an open and perfect sincere attitude are also easy to conquer the hearts of some consumers. Especially in the long-term company, we will gradually deepen our understanding and get used to such a mobile phone with the same advantages and disadvantages.

In this paragraph, the insect wants to jump out zenfone2 And talk about zenfone2 As well as the deep level problems in the development of ASUS mobile phones, and put forward some "retreat" opinions and suggestions in some major directions.  
It is said that everything in the world has a cause and effect. If we find the reason, the origin and the original intention, we will better understand the development of ASUS mobile phones zenfone2 The connotation and character of this machine.  
  

1、 The confidence and conceit of ASUS mobile phones in industrial design.  
  
ASUS as pc In the era, there is no doubt that the famous board manufacturer has its own innovative R&D strength, professional technical level, industrial design quality and product manufacturing ability. As a result, ASUS is very confident to expand from the traditional computer industry to the communication digital industry and actively develop the mobile phone business. Especially after Lenovo, it is rarely used intel The manufacturer of mobile phone chip solutions, and has created an easy forty-seven thousand , after optimization five six Wanda's Scoring Monster zenfone2 . It shows a high degree of confidence based on technological R&D and innovation strength.  
But when self-confidence explodes, it becomes conceit. In some key designs, zenfone2 Too much pursuit of perfection and publicity of personality, which shows many "anti human" designs. For example, in the design of mobile phone keys, ASUS has designed the power key at the top and the volume key below the camera in order to pursue the ultimate cleanness of the border, the perfection of the back arc, the symmetry of the central axis and the radial beauty of the lines of the keys. Even the volume key makes the volume hole across the phone for the sake of complete symmetry. However, after opening it, we can see that the sound amplifier unit is only on the lower left side of the phone, and the long sound hole is useless. You should know that such design has become the consensus of being eliminated in the mobile phone industry. Because the mobile phone screen is becoming larger and larger with the enrichment of intelligent application functions, the holding comfort of the mobile phone has become an important humanized design indicator. In this case, the top power key and the back volume key have greatly affected the comfort of holding the phone, and have gradually faded out of the mainstream phone design.  
There are many similar cases, which will not be listed here. Asustek is overconfident, showing its rebellion and resistance to "conventional wisdom", which is naturally mixed with praise. It can be said that it is self-confidence that makes Asustek, while self-confidence becomes conceit, but it becomes a hindrance to progress. In this regard, we pay homage to ASUS's original spirit and attitude of pursuing perfection, but we offer a kind criticism to some specific designs that are anti human. But originality is 100 times better than copycat. Rather than let me choose the perfect copycat, I would rather choose the poor innovation. After all, the first cry of genius will never be a perfect song.  
Here, Worm might as well boldly propose a design scheme, so that manufacturers can carry out the "violence aesthetics" of appearance to the end. The mobile phone is integrated with an integrated long button design on the border. The upper and lower buttons are volume buttons, and the middle of the button is the power reset button integrated with fingerprint recognition. At the same time, this button can also be used as a shutter in camera mode. Today's profile fingerprint recognition is honored in Huawei P8 I believe this will not be difficult.

 

2、 ASUS mobile phones are simple and crude on the operating system.  
  
Zenfone2 Android five In addition to adding some applications in ASUS ecosystem, the basic interface, architecture, settings, etc. respect the original version. On the surface, compared with most deeply developed Android systems, it gives people a simple and light praise, but on a deeper level, it is too simple. The compatibility of the system also has some problems because of the simple and direct application.  
I will not expand on the details of system operation. Let me make a vivid analogy: zenfone2 Just like a fighter plane, it has a variety of control buttons, which can be customized to achieve various functions and operations under the control of skilled pilots, showing strong combat effectiveness (playability, personalized customization). But most mobile phone users are not fighter pilots. They just want to have a one button start, constant speed cruise, and comfortable overtrace.  
  
The simplicity and crudeness of the operating system are well understood. ASUS's past achievements pc For manufacturers, more research and development efforts are focused on industrial design, while Microsoft and others provide operating systems. Therefore, ASUS is also accustomed to using native operating systems in the mobile phone industry. But obviously, this is not in line with the general direction of the development of the modern mobile phone industry. Not all mobile phone users have good IT Knowledge literacy, the humanized system arranged by the user should be seriously considered.  
  
It must be mentioned that ASUS's R&D response speed is still convincing. In the internal test phase, the system was updated in time, which effectively solved many problems. After the official version came into the market, the system update has not stopped. Today, ASUS has established a fixed user internal test group, with a group of enthusiasts who are enthusiastic and have a level of technical awareness, and are feedback on the use experience and improvement opinions every day. This has provided a solid mass foundation for the continuous improvement of ASUS system. Here is a small suggestion. It is suggested that ASUS should make a log of system updates every time it updates, so that everyone can know what has been improved and solved in this update.  
  
However, the open, open source and in-depth personalized customization framework of the original system is used to meet the humanized intelligent design pursued by users. At present, it is only limited to what problems appear and what problems are corrected. The underlying and guiding ideas have not changed. In the end, it is very likely to fall into an embarrassing situation that is impossible to add to and optimize.  
  
At present, the operating system is the weakness of ASUS mobile phones, and also the focus of the next optimization. It is suggested to follow the idea of reducing complexity and simplifying, and learn from the current vivo Of funtoch Huawei emui oppo Of color Xiaomi MIUI , Lenovo VIBE UI  Even Meizu flyme ripe UI System, highlighting ASUS brand culture, and creating an ASUS system with high recognition. Bug suggested that ASUS could consider two options. The first is to cooperate with mature operating system providers. Through cooperation, acquisition and other ways, mature software manufacturers will provide operating system solutions. The other is the open interface, which allows ASUS mobile phones to be compatible with the current mainstream operating system, allowing enthusiasts to dominate the system. Of course, you can also try to use wp System, let wintel The system "reappeared yesterday". When I was writing this article about insects. It has been spread among forum enthusiasts win7 Successfully migrated to zenfone2 Message for. It seems that the insect is not the only one who has such complaints.  
 


3、 ASUS mobile phones are mature and sincere in terminal marketing.  
  
ASUS Mobile is very clear about its position and situation as a latecomer, and is very grounded in marketing. ASUS started the Pegasus series until zenfone2 , and the upcoming Pegasus 2plus ASUS has always maintained good cooperation and contact with various online media, We Media and trial platforms in terms of terminal marketing. Through continuous cooperation and good expression of sincerity, ASUS has gradually accumulated its own contacts and business contacts.  
With the promotion of network information platform, zenfone The series has been rapidly promoted, known by consumers, and passed the ASUS official forum, professional internal test group of mobile phone products, WeChat group QQ The group and various trial platforms have quickly established a perfect Internet marketing system. ASUS mobile phones have maintained sufficient exposure and reputation. All kinds of information and problems in the use process can also be fed back in time, and can quickly respond through online technology and customer service support.  
Lenovo has learned a lesson in this regard. Launched at Lenovo K900 K910 At that time, Lenovo's customer service and terminal marketing had serious problems, even serious internal friction, which also affected the promotion of the brand. Even now, many brands still make the mistake of "either left or right" in terminal marketing. They are either too radical, making too many enemies, or too dull to attract market attention.  
It is suggested that ASUS speed up the deepening and improvement of offline channels and technical service support channels on the basis of network promotion. Only when the physical channel network is established can the entire industry chain be complete and sustainable. In terms of specific products, it is necessary to adapt to the current trend of market segmentation in a timely manner, clarify the market positioning of good products, and do not expect one product to eat all.  
At present, zenfone2 It is only positioned as a "performance monster" in terms of hardware configuration, but has not carried out marketing promotion for the market segments. Just zenfone2 For example, I suggest marketing promotion for male business people, and the effect may be better.  
Zenfone2 It is not flattering. It is definitely not a fashion machine. But as business people, they are busy and busy. For them, the mobile phone with stable and reliable performance, strong and durable physique, and a sense of touch is the best assistant and tool. The borderless and curved screen seems to be a little smaller, fresher, more delicate, less open-minded and rough. At the same time, five point five Inch screen, thick and curved body, the simple and honest appearance can not be seen by cute girls. Therefore, zenfone2 Male business people should be the market positioning crowd.  
Please do not doubt that such mobile phones can have a market in the light and thin era. Just like the broadcast level camera and professional level SLR have not disappeared in the era of light and thin audio and video. Thick, is often synonymous with professional. Heavy business mobile phones, whether now or in the future, must have value.  
  
  

4、 ASUS mobile phones are international and domestic in brand culture.  
  
ASUS mobile phones have a strong international style in terms of operating systems, applications and forums. Insects feel that this is not desirable. The so-called national is the world. Nowadays, including major international brands, they are committed to the transformation of localization, and strive to make their brand culture cater to and integrate into the democratic culture of product sales areas. Asustek looks a little out of place. It is suggested to pay more attention to the localization of brand culture, so that ASUS mobile phones can be more suitable for the use experience of mainland consumers in terms of operating system control, application software use, and forum website style, and increase the compatibility of values.  
  
The reason for this is actually the ASUS thinking pattern. Asustek, which has outstanding performance in the computer industry, is difficult to jump out of the glory of success in the past. The traditional thinking pattern will also make it "acclimatized" when it enters the mobile phone industry. In fact, similar situations are justifiable and not fatal. The key is to find out and adjust and improve ideas in time.  
  
For example, Lenovo also had such a stage. At the initial stage, Lenovo had a high IQ and insufficient EQ. Later, it repeatedly adjusted its product positioning, and the product was always in an awkward position of being popular. Later, Lenovo readjusted and straightened out the organizational structure of mobile marketing, and made great efforts in the development of operating systems VIBE UI 2.0 And highlighted the main cost performance of Lemon series, gradually finding their own space for survival and development.  
  
Coincidentally, Microsoft suffered a "Waterloo" in the mobile phone field, which was actually caused by simply copying the thinking customization of the computer industry to the mobile phone industry. For more than a decade, computers, as an important tool for work and learning, have done almost everything. In the era of imperfect information networks, windows The "heavy client" of the system handles everything like a fish in water. Even in the early days of smart phones, wp The system can barely adapt. In the era of mobile Internet, smooth network and cloud computing make efficiency and efficiency the primary consideration, and Android "light client" quickly kills Microsoft. Alas, Microsoft did not see the root cause of its failure. In the open and free era, it wanted to cooperate with Nokia and Symbian Systems, which are also conservative. Of course, the consequences are predictable.  
  
There is a saying that "every other line is like a mountain", not to mention the computer and mobile phone industry, but the mobile phone industry. In the era of smart large screen, Nokia, Motorola, Microsoft, Blackberry and other industry giants are also defeated in the fierce competition due to the transformation and upgrading of the industry. Coincidentally, Gree and LeTV have also crossed the border into the mobile phone industry. Bugzi advises these manufacturers to be modest and prudent, guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and not regard the past glory as today's success, nor the prosperity next door as the prosperity of the mobile phone industry.  
  
Therefore, ASUS needs to speed up localization, or speed up continental transformation. In terms of hardware, including standards between unified areas such as rear covers and peripherals, and in terms of software, seamless connection with mainland usage habits, including functional descriptions, manuals and other details, it is also necessary to accelerate localization and improve brand affinity. For example, the packing box of "Sanyan" accessories is still in English. Although it is full of international style, it has no affinity.  
  
In short, everything should be down-to-earth and down-to-earth, and no carelessness or pride is allowed.  
 
[End]
 

Long winded, bug's "three looks and two pats" is nearing the end. Zenfone2 It is a strategic attempt of ASUS mobile phones. And "three facial expressions and two photos" is also a writing exploration of Bug's mobile phone experience. Once upon a time, some mobile phone reviews became the "graphic description" of a third party, losing experience, criticism and criticism, and even some reviews did not involve the price that readers cared most about; Some reviews, however, focus on the bottom and cover many pages. Even a manual needs to be featured. They always want to move manufacturers with "full sincerity and intention"; Some are the graphic design of beautiful advertising pictures, beautiful, or even exaggerate the beauty of the product. Such evaluation will only mislead consumers. As an electronic product, consumers mainly use it, rather than having a spotless fingerprint. It is offered and placed as in the beautiful picture poss Play.  
As a result, the insect got entangled and pondered. To please manufacturers, or to adhere to the truth? Continue to innovate forms, improve the quality of the text, or fall into vulgar secular evaluation standards? As the song "Little Bird" says, "What is the most important thing about the pressure of life and the dignity of life?" In fact, the manufacturer's products often face such contradictions and entanglements?  
  
Life is always full of choices and contradictions,  
In the process of choice and contradiction,  
What we have passed is called life;  
By chance, you clicked this post,  
Then you actually saw the end of this article,  
Then, this is called predestination.
