This is the second time to apply for a product in the "Play 100" community, and also the first time to be lucky to be a trial user of the "Play 100" website. As a newcomer to the Gamer Forum, it is still full of surprises to get mobile phones as a level of trial products, which also shows that the community has no opinions when selecting trial users, which fully reflects the Internet spirit of equality for all. Thank you very much for the trust and support of the staff of the Player100 website. I hope that the following humble comments will be recognized by everyone and will be helpful to friends who are preparing to purchase and using this product.  
This evaluation is only for participating in Lei Feng.com Play guest 100 website Try the activity and write. Please do not reprint the pictures and texts.  

After obtaining the probationary qualification the forth day , received a delivery call from SF Express. In less than 10 minutes, the delivery boy came to knock on the door breathlessly. The delivery unit of trial products is not the website of Player100, but the same as Player100 Zhiqu . Because they seldom pay attention to shopping websites, they log in to Zhiqu specifically after receiving the products. It turns out that Zhiqu is an e-commerce company specializing in digital product sales. Its product lines range from data lines to super sports cars.  

Opening the package box, I found that in addition to two tightly packed express packages, there was a small piece of paper for the trial user card . The signature of the card is Leifeng online gamer community , except for the above contents congratulations In addition to the content of obtaining the trial opportunity, some activity information about the trial of ZenFone2 was specially emphasized. These contents are really helpful for newcomers like me in the customer community, but this card is really a bit frugal.  

It's a bit dazzling to get so many trial products in a trial application. except ZenFone2 mobile phone Besides, there are ZenFlash Xenon flash lamp 、 Lolliflash Luoli fill light 、 ZenPower portable source . It was found that the 10050mAh ZenPower mobile power supply was packed small, much smaller than other 10000mAh mobile power supplies. In addition to the above four trial products, there is also a small item that is transported in bulk like a rubber sleeve, which looks like ZenFlash Protective sleeve of Even small accessories such as protective sleeves can be considered by the users. It can be seen that the staff of the website really do Very careful , we should not hesitate to praise the website of Play Guest 100.  

According to the trial requirements of Player100, the first product to be evaluated this time is the ZenFone2 mobile phone product recently launched by Asustek. the reason being that The first model in the world The mobile phone with 4G memory, so the market pays great attention to this product. On the official website of ASUS, ZenFone2 mobile phones have black 、 white 、 red 、 ash 、 Five colors of gold It may be the production capacity problem that has just come into the market. I checked several shopping websites and found that only gray and red colors can be seen on the market at present. Judging from the packaging style of red and white main colors, the phone I received should be a red version.
The front of the package is printed with ZenFone2's mainframe model, and there are two small ones in the lower right corner IF Design Award Award Label The IF Design Award is one of the most famous awards in the world, and is known as the "Oscar of the design industry". It can be seen that the industrial design level of ZenFone 2 has been recognized by the world's design peers. There are some products on the back of the package Hardware data And simple configuration parameter I will give a more detailed explanation of the hardware configuration in later use, so《 Unpacking 》The configuration information of the machine will not be introduced in.  

The unpacking method of ZenFone2 is very special. There is a packaged Handle label . Pull according to the direction indicated by the label to open the outer package of ZenFone2. It can be found that the host is wrapped in a Plastic dust bag In, some product hardware features are printed on the dust bag. It may be because the package is relatively tight. Maybe I haven't mastered the easier way to open this kind of package. When I opened the package, I felt that the pulling process was rather dull and not very smooth.  

After taking out the host of ZenFone2 from the packaging box, open the second layer of the packaging box, and you will see the Charger 、 data line 、《 user 's manual 》、《 Warranty Service Card 》。 It can be seen that the front of the ZenFone2 console is completely black, which is not very different from the common Android phones. The charger is also protected with special dust-proof stickers. In order to take photos easily, I removed the external dust-proof stickers. host weight by 170g This weight is still standard among domestic mobile phones of the same level, and there is no obvious sense of weight when using with one hand.  
In ZenFone2 accessories No standard headset It seems that those who are accustomed to using earphones can only equip them separately.  

ZenFone2 host is Rounded quadrilateral design , long one hundred and fifty-two point five millimeter , width seventy-seven point two millimeter , the proportion of the screen is about 72% . ZenFone2 external screen used The third generation Corning gorilla glass , which can prevent the screen from being scratched to some extent. But we Shandong people have a saying that no amount of perfume can dry a leek box, so you'd better prepare a screen protective film before you scratch the screen. Silver mirror printed on the top of the screen ASUS English Logo , surrounding Distance (light) sensor 、 front camera 、 LED indicator light We have everything we need. The lower part is designed with the function keys commonly used in Android system by touch, because Virtual keys are not used , so the actual display part of the whole screen has been increased. ZenFone2 has no special menu key, but uses return 、 homepage 、 task Three function keys. Since late 2013, Google It seems that when deliberately suppressing the use of menu keys and formulating key standards, the standard position of the return key was inexplicably designed to the left. I tried it personally. It's still difficult for my thumb to click the return button when I operate with one hand in my right hand.  
ZenFone2 Metal wiredrawing concentric circle decoration It is very beautiful. It can show different metal reflections under different lights. From the perspective of the visual experience of the machine, this design gives a very high-end feeling.  

The back cover of ZenFone2 is Metal brushed texture For design, because I got a red machine, the metal texture is not very obvious visually. When your fingers scratch the surface of the back cover, you may obviously feel the wire drawing scratch of the material. From the ZenFone series to the Pegasus series, including ASUS tablet products, ASUS's entire mobile terminal product line currently has a very strong metal design style, which seems to deliberately highlight a strong design style. I just don't know if this design will lose some female users.  
The rear of the main engine is designed Rear camera 、 fill-in light And speakers Loudspeaker It is worth mentioning that ASUS Volume key It's designed Rear center , because no mobile phone with this volume key design has been used before, it is not very good to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of this design. I hope that it can quickly adapt to this change in the position of the volume key during normal use.  

ZenFone2 adopts Double microphone noise reduction technology , both upper and lower sides are designed Microphone pickup , in order to explain this technical principle more intuitively. I quoted the description of dual microphone noise reduction in Baidu Encyclopedia: [Dual microphone noise reduction refers to the two microphones built into the mobile phone, one of which is stable and clear, and the other one is physically active to eliminate noise. By collecting external sound, processing it, it emits sound waves opposite to the noise, and using the cancellation principle to eliminate noise. As for this process, to be more professional, after the noise reduction microphone samples, the waveform is inverted and overlapped with the microphone sampling to achieve the noise reduction function.]  
On the host Upper side , designed with 3.5mm Standard headphone jack 、 Power key ， Lower side Traditional MicroUSB Interface . The power key is narrow and slightly stiff. Because the volume key is designed in the middle of the back cover, the two sides of ZenFone2 are very smooth, and only one side is designed“ Uncovering groove ”, pry outward along the groove to open the back cover of the phone.  

ZenFone2 adopts Removable back cover design , via Uncovering groove During the operation of opening the back cover, I felt that the back cover of ZenFone2 was very firm, and it was difficult to open it. I must cut my nails into the gap of the back cover, and then cut the internal clips one by one. This opening experience does not rule out the possibility of individual differences between machines. ZenFone2 has built-in 3000mAh lithium battery , only visible after opening the back cover TF Card slot and double Micro SIM Card slot Today, when the integrated fuselage is popular, ZenFone2 adopts this detachable back cover design. If it is not for cost, it must be to maintain the ultra-thin fuselage edge. However, one advantage of this design is that you can change the color of the back cover you like at any time, which enhances the appearance of the product individualization 。  
At the back of the back cover, I also found NFC antenna In the current domestic mobile phone market, there are few NFC equipped machines with mid-range functions below 2000 yuan.  

After observing the host, I took a brief look at the charger. ZenFone2 is equipped with the original ASUS charger AD2022520 type Charger, output power 5V-2A or 9V-2A. This charger is heavier than ordinary mobile phone chargers. I feel that the workmanship is very solid. Only ZenFone2 flagship version will be equipped as standard BoostMaster This is the charger of fast charging technology. According to the official introduction, the power of this charger is 18W, which can be charged to 60% from the zero power of the mobile phone within 39 minutes, which is much faster than other mobile phone charging devices. Since the mobile phone has not been powered off, the charging speed has not been verified for the time being.  
The random standard data cable is traditional MicroUSB data line , the data cable is produced by ASUS, with the English logo of ASUS.  

Unpacking comments ： The appearance of ZenFone2, including the physical keys such as power key and volume key, all adopt the metal wiredrawing texture. It can be understood that apart from the screen, ZenFone2 is a mobile terminal product completely wrapped by metal elements. Asustek has abandoned the current popular aluminum oxide treatment process, and the use of strong metal design in the entire mobile terminal product line is undoubtedly to erect Asustek Iconic appearance And made a bold attempt. Due to the heavy metal complex in the product design, it is a pity not to use the metal back cover. However, compared with the plastic material, the metal material is heavier and easier to deform and scratch. In general, there are gains and losses.

Experience

Before using ZenFone2, through the basic understanding of the mobile phone hardware configuration, I am still full of expectations for this mobile phone. In the field of mobile processors, Intel has long developed the Xscale core processor based on ARM authorization, but it was later packaged and sold to Marvell. In recent years, Intel has made a comeback with Atom, and the most impressive one is Lenovo K900 series products using Atom Z2580. Whether it is fate or coincidence, Lenovo K900 is the first Android phone that uses a lot of metal materials, and ZenFone2 using Atom Z3580 is also full of metal light. Behind the ZenFone series of products, there is love and hatred between Intel and ARM, which are chip giants. At the same time, it is also the summit of Silvermont and ARM's two processor micro architectures in the mid tier mobile chip market.  
I hope to objectively evaluate ZenFone2. Although I have a good opinion of Intel, analyzing the outstanding advantages of a certain part of the product alone cannot explain the value of the product itself. Smartphone is a comprehensive system digital product, which involves a wide range of contents and requires a lot of data for evaluation. Everyone has different views and ways of using the products. It is inevitable that personal views will be mixed in the evaluation process. I hope you digital experts can give more advice on the shortcomings. This experience evaluation will not be compared with other models.  

The mobile phone is charged before starting up LED lamp Show as Beige , displayed as green . Later, when using mobile phones, I found that System settings Of Display settings You can also choose close This LED lamp.  
Open the back cover and see that the TF card is In line In design, when an external memory card is needed, the TF card can be inserted directly into the card slot and pulled out directly when taken out. load Micro SIM card The SIM card slot is Pop up design , when you need to remove the SIM card, it is very convenient to pop it up by pressing it. Since I have only one available Micro SIM card, I only used one SIM card in this use test.  
In the ZenFone2 attachment User Manual, it is written that:“ Micro SIM Card slot 1 Support 4G/3G/2G Signal and network functions, Micro SIM Card slot 2 Only 2G is supported Call function. ”For ZenFone2, only SIM1 has data function, while SIM2 can only be used for voice calls, not for mobile Internet access. Different hardware versions of ZenFone2 support different network systems. At present, the version I have received in mainland China supports FDD-LTE : (CN/IN version) TD-LTE : (CN/IN version), which is fully compatible with China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom (China Telecom only supports 4G) a phone fit all kinds of networks Has. According to the official website, ZenFone2 also supports Double card double pass When one of the SIM cards is calling and the other SIM card has an incoming call, "call waiting" will be displayed, while the other SIM card will not prompt for an incoming call when the dual card single pass machine is making a call.

Press and hold the power supply for about five seconds, the machine vibrates and starts to start. At the first startup, if you follow the system prompts to complete step by step, the welcome interface of ZenFone2 can reach up to 9 pages, which are Language selection 、 IME Settings 、 Network connection settings 、 WLAN set up 、 ASUS account login 、 Account Synchronization Options 、 Set Date Time 、 Use Information Collection Statement 、 Setting completion prompt . Of course, you can skip it directly. After setting, you can enter the system desktop.  
The screen of ZenFone2 is five point five inch , because no virtual key is set, the resolution of the screen display can be completely reached one thousand nine hundred and twenty ×1080 . After calculation, PPI value per inch reaches 400+ , far beyond the retinal screen 326PPI Number of pixels for. In actual use, even if you look closely, you will not find any graininess in the content displayed on the screen.

Because ZenFone2's screen uses IPS+ technology ， Theoretical visual angle It is 178 degrees. When viewed at an angle of nearly 160 degrees, there is no abnormality in the color and clarity of the ZenFone2 screen. Visual angle test It is only used to affect the visual aspect after the change of the screen viewing angle Reference basis In practical applications, few people use mobile phones from such a large visual angle.  
Three Android's at the bottom of the screen Function keys are not designed with key backlight , which brings some inconvenience to the use in a completely black environment. Users must be familiar with the key positions to prevent misoperation.

Lock screen part ： ZenFone2 adopts the deeply customized Android 5.0 system, and the system UI is Asustek's own ZenUI. ZenUI Lock screen interface The information available is very rich. In addition to the traditional drop-down menu, the icons of camera, phone and SMS are directly displayed, Click icon and drag You can open the corresponding program, and mark on the blank space to unlock the system. ZenUI also supports Black screen operation , in black screen standby mode, Double click the screen It will light up. Double click anywhere on the screen, and the phone will automatically enter sleep Status and lock. Thanks to ZenUI's ZenMotion Intelligent gesture Function, in the system setting ZenMotion option Touch gestures One column, which can be set Turn on or off Black screen operation function.  
Drop down menu section : After unlocking, enter the system, ZenUI's homepage interface layout and traditional Android system No big difference , on the home page Single finger downward stroke Activatable drop-down menu At this time, you can see that some functions of the drop-down menu have not been used in other systems. click Self start management When icon is selected, ZenUI can proceed directly without root permission Self start management In the past, in most Android systems, the self startup function of the management system requires Root permission. In the drop-down menu of ZenUI, there is a new one Balance mode Icon. After clicking, it is found that this is an adjustment screen display tone and saturation Function, via balance 、 Blue light filtering eye protection 、 colorful Three preset modes and custom The mode adjusts the display effect by itself. Frequently measured, this function changes the display parameters of the physical screen, and will not affect the screenshot in any way, nor will it affect the operation of the software due to the change of color tone. Via the Drop down menu setting key , Yes open 、 close or Adjustment icon Display order of.  
Management main screen : Long press the blank space or the task key to enter the main management screen of ZenUI. Most of the functions of this interface are desktop settings, including Application widget 、 Edit Page 、 wallpaper 、 Illustration Kit 、 Transition animation 、 theme 、 Desktop Settings 、 System settings 、 typeface 、 Comments and help 。 Edit Page The page management of is basically the same as that of other Android systems. In addition to clicking on the main management screen, you can also click on the Double finger pinch Gesture to enter the page management interface. This interface can add to or delete Screen page, or any screen Set Home Page 。 
   Simple mode : In addition to the normal Android system interface, in order to facilitate the use of users with poor eyesight, there is another item in the system settings Simple mode After starting this mode, the icon will become very large.

There are up to 50 pre installed software in ZenUI, including forty-one Official applications of ASUS ， nine Third party applications However, Asustek is kind enough to do things. It does not force the pre installation of third-party software. It is measured that 9 third-party software can be uninstalled normally. The functions of many software in the system are similar to those on other Android phones, and the functions of cloud software are similar to those of other companies ZenLink Series software It is very special. Here I will introduce it to you briefly.  
   PC LINK : This is an application that uses computers to control mobile phones. Theoretically, only download these four featured software ZenUI PC Suite You can install and connect it on your computer, but you can't find the download address of ZenUI PC Suite. But we can already find the Chinese version ASUS PC Link Software, download and install through USB perhaps WLAN network Connect with the mobile phone, and finally use the computer mouse to directly control the mobile phone.  
   RemoteLink : This software is just the opposite of PC Link, which is used by mobile phones Bluetooth or WLAN After connecting with the computer, the mobile phone virtual mouse controls the computer. It is unrealistic to replace the mouse with the existing functions of this software, but it can be realized through this connection Remote control It is a very good idea to control the playback of software such as PPT.  
   ShareLink : On the whole, this is a short distance File transfer software , this software can quickly transfer any file in the phone to Android devices that also install Share Link software. The file transmission process is to establish a temporary hotspot by the device that initiates the transmission, and then connect the hotspot by the receiving device WLAN network Fast file transfer. The previous version can transfer files with the eggplant fast transfer software. I don't know why Share Link has closed the data exchange channel with the eggplant fast transfer software after version 1.5. At present, this software has no PC terminal in simplified Chinese, Only Android system is supported File transfer between digital products.  
   PartyLink : It's not so much a Party photo sharing software , rather it is a local area network Image summary software At first, I couldn't think of the specific purpose of this software until I saw a simple application example on the Internet. For example, at a friend's party, everyone joins Party Link group Then all photos taken by everyone will be shared with other people in this group. It means that everyone has a copy of all the photos taken at the party. I think this software avoids the embarrassment of asking others for their own photos. Anyway, everyone has the same photos.  
In addition to introducing the above four ZenLink series software, Child mode Is also a very distinctive Permission rating Application, when children use mobile phones, children mode application can Browser Hierarchical Browsing To prevent children from visiting bad websites, you can set Personal data and privacy , limit the children to answer the phone on their behalf, or Limit the usage duration of the app By the way, spit out a slot in ZenFone2 radio The application can only be used when the headset is plugged in, but ZenFone2 No standard headset If the user does not have a headset, the radio function cannot be used.

The ZenUI setting menu retains the setting style of the traditional Android system, which is divided into Wireless and network 、 equipment 、 personal 、 system Four major items, each of which is subdivided into smaller items, most of which have the same functions as other Android systems, except for the Screen Color Mode and ZenMotion Intelligent gesture In addition, there are several unique functions of ZenUI.  
   PlayTO ： ZenUI supports Microsoft's PlayTO remote playback function. In the "More" of wireless and network options, click PlayTO to search nearby devices that support PlayTO function, and then connect and play them.  
Do Not Disturb : This function is named in the previous version of ZenUI“ disturb ”, the system becomes“ Do not disturb. ”Four characters. There is a repeat call function, which is very good. It can limit the incoming calls of the same number within 2 minutes Auto mute 。 
   ASUS Leather holster : Do you want to use this function? Then buy a matching original leather case. This function is suspected of bundling sales. Open it and have a look. Apart from the traditional ASUS leather case Automatic unlocking and Sleep function In addition, there is another Applications displayed in the holster screen Option, the front of the original leather case is reserved Screen perspective hole This option may be used to select the program displayed in the perspective hole.  
   ASUS Personalized settings : The biggest feature of this setting is that it can be set“ Task key ”Function, you can set it to Show Tasks 、 Screenshot 、 Show tasks or menus Three functions. This is also the first time I have seen in the UI that System function keys The setting function defined by users is usually implemented by third-party software
Developer Options : No USB Debugging function Many software installation and connection problems will occur. stay about Of options Software information In sub item, Continuous click The version number can be opened five times Developer Mode 。

After a preliminary understanding of the ZenFone2 system, I tested the machine performance.  
Performance test environment : Restart the phone after resetting, no settings have been made to the system, no software has been installed or uninstalled.  
After the machine restarts, the system Available memory is 2.9GB Last time, I saw an article on a website that said the available memory of ZenFone2 was 1.5GB. I don't know what test environment it was under, but this trial machine I got did show 2.9GB of available memory. system Available storage is 54.04GB With such a large amount of available storage, the memory card is basically unnecessary.  
It has always been criticized for the running score, but without digital quantification, it is difficult to distinguish the performance of the product. I installed two kinds of test software on ZenFone2 for running test, which were jointly launched by Intel and other brand manufacturers after the establishment of BenchmarkXPRT community MobileXPRT2013 And running points Angora rabbit . As can be seen in MobileXPRT2013, because of the lack of test results of software creation slides, the performance test is given a total score, but Total score of system fluency by one hundred and one branch . In Anthare, Comprehensive score Up to forty-eight thousand one hundred and twenty-four branch . With the above two scores as a reference, it can fully prove that the hardware performance level of ZenFone2 has reached the level of current high-end products.  
After about 10 minutes of full load operation, Infrared temperature instrument The measured maximum fuselage heat generating area reaches forty-five degree The temperature of other software in normal operation is forty-one degree About Slight fever Category of.

The most commonly used mobile phones with better performance are Communication function . ZenFone2 adopted Smart dial keypad , except clicking phone number and Name Pinyin Can also be retrieved through the Handwriting function Filter contacts and click to make a call. Here is a very interesting setting. Each contact can not only set his/her avatar, but also Set background picture Instead of the phone number in the contact list, the incoming or outgoing calls are all on a black background. During the call, the dual microphone noise reduction function of ZenFone2 has played a great role. Even in a very noisy environment, the other party can clearly hear my voice.  
ZenFone2's SMS function It's a little mediocre. In addition to the regular SMS and MMS functions, you can also protect some personal privacy content through your own set of group ratings. Font size of SMS interface It cannot be controlled by double finger zoom , if you want to change the font size, you need to enter SMS settings.  

The continuous improvement of mobile terminal performance will naturally bring more excellent video and gaming experience. It is found that mobile phones windows media player It is not possible to play the H.265 encoded MKV file. When playing, there is only sound but no image. The MPEG-4 format file with a resolution of 4096 × 2304 pixels plays smoothly, without any frame drop and stuttering. According to my understanding of mobile phone configuration, as long as the playback software supports decoding, this mobile phone should It can support and play all kinds of video and audio formats smoothly 。 
ZenFone2 flagship is equipped with 2.3GHz Intel Atom Z3580 The core of, 4GB Transportation and storage ， GPU is PVR-G6430 Unless Android 5.0 software is incompatible, this configuration can almost sweep all large and medium-sized games in Android system. When experiencing the game of Real Racing 3, I obviously felt that the effect of the dust on the track and the reflection of the car body was better than that of my other mobile phones.  
MicroUSB interface of ZenFone2 I won't support it USB-HOST function , you cannot connect the mouse, USB flash disk or game controller through the adapter cable.

ZenFone2 camera maximum support one thousand and three hundred Megapixel (4096 × 3027) shooting, Maximum Aperture F2.0 , with Dual color temperature fill lamp , also joined ASUS Pixel Master image processing techniques . PixelMaster image processing technology Low light mode It is a pixel synthesis technology. In a weak light environment, the higher the resolution, the easier the image noise will appear. The Pixel Master technology combines four pixels into one pixel to improve the sensitivity and eliminate noise.  
After opening the camera application of the system, there are simple Tips And then you can see the camera interface. The camera shooting interface of ZenUI is not very different from the camera of other systems. The only difference is that there is one more camera in the lower right corner System recommended mode . This recommended mode can be started by the user according to the camera's judgment of the shooting environment HDR pattern or Low light mode 。 
In addition to automatic mode, ZenUI's camera supports up to seventeen Shooting modes In addition to the common modes of beauty, night view and special effects, there are also several shooting modes that are very interesting.  
Time Retrospection Mode: This mode is similar to a continuous shooting mode. When the shutter is pressed, the camera will record all images 1 second before shooting and 2 seconds after shooting, and then form a time axis. The user can select the moment to be retained.  
   PanoSphere Mode: This is a Stereoscopic imaging Mode, shooting process and panorama The mode is similar, but also within a certain range. Take many photos according to the machine prompts, and then the system will automatically splice them into a similar one Fisheye lens The effect of (concave spherical effect).  
Smart Delete Mode: for the subject Continuous shooting 5 photos, except for the person being photographed, you can select other obvious objects moving or in the lens delete 。

Test environment : Indoor dual light source, camera fully automatic default setting. The matching image is the original image zooming out without any modification to the tone, and the image quality matching image is the original image cutting without any adjustment.  
Test conclusion : From the photo, ZenFone2's shooting effect is very good when the indoor light is good. Zoom in to the original image resolution for observation, Central image quality The details are clear, and the ink of the inkjet printer penetrates the paper filaments clear and distinguishable ， Edge quality There is a certain degree of virtualization, but the noise is serious. In the single light environment of indoor beam light, the camera's shooting ability is flat.

Test environment : At outdoor shady places, the camera is set automatically by default. The matching image is the original image zooming out without any modification to the tone, and the image quality matching image is the original image cutting without any adjustment. This shooting is mainly used to test whether the camera can Image distortion The ability to correct phenomena.  
Test conclusion : According to the official website, ZenFone2 supports 178 ° wide-angle shooting, but after my actual measurement, Actual shooting angle It's not that big. I took a picture of the shady ceramic tile wall in the outdoor environment, and felt that the picture was flat, clear, and surrounded by the image No obvious image distortion and dark angle phenomenon . Although the official did not disclose the performance of distortion correction in the information of ZenFone2, I personally guess that Pixel Master image processing technology must be very professional Image distortion correction algorithm 。 

Test environment : At outdoor shady places, the camera is set automatically by default. The accompanying picture is the original image zoomed out without any modification to the tone. This shooting is mainly for the test camera shooting Light dark contrast Time performance and Close-up depth of field As a result, the original image is not enlarged.  
Test conclusion ： ZenFone2's Close shot Very obvious advantages, bright part Clear and sharp ， Soft and smooth in the dark ， The aperture of F2.0 brings a dreamy depth of field effect. Although there is still a certain gap between it and the large aperture lens of professional SLR camera, the color restoration ability and detail processing have More than 1000 yuan card camera . I'm not sure where ZenFone2's lens and sensor are produced, but this close shot effect has a heavy Imaging style of Japanese camera 。

Test environment : Outdoor backlight shooting, the camera is automatically set by default. The accompanying picture is the original image zoomed out without any modification to the tone. This shooting is mainly for the test camera Backlit object When on the surface of an object Focusing and metering performance , the original image is not enlarged.  
Test conclusion : with shock To describe ZenFone2's Backlight shooting ability Especially insufficient. When it is difficult to distinguish the details of the building with the naked eye, ZenFone2 not only Fast and accurate Focus and shoot, and Color restoration Completely achieved The level of quasi professional cameras . It appears slightly when processing the edge of the highlighted part of the building Purple edge phenomenon However, it does not affect the overall shooting performance and is completely within the acceptable range.

Test environment : Shoot outdoors at night. The camera is set automatically by default. The accompanying picture is the original image zoomed out without any modification to the tone. This shooting is mainly to test the shooting effect of ZenFone2 in the night environment when it starts the fill light.  
Test conclusion ： ZenFone2 performs well in a pure black environment. When the phone detects a lack of light, it will automatically turn on the fill light for focusing and shooting. Start when shooting Dual color temperature fill lamp The exposure time is accurate, the color restoration is normal, and there is no obvious overexposure.

Test environment : Shoot outdoors at night. The camera is set automatically by default. The figure is Original drawing cutting , no changes have been made to the hue. This shooting is mainly for ZenFone2 shooting at night Automatic mode and Low light mode Imaging differences.  
Test conclusion : In the case of dark light, ZenFone2's automatic mode shooting ability is relatively general, the image is dark, and there are some difficulties in focusing, and almost no details of the subject are captured. start-up Low light mode After that, the system seems to add exposure compensation, and there is no obstacle in focusing and exposure. The details of the subject are clearly displayed, and the near and far subjects have a clear sense of hierarchy. The imaging quality of the weak light mode is significantly better than that of the automatic mode, but there are also some image noise points after magnification, and the noise points are not obvious when it is used without magnification.

Test environment : Indoor natural light shooting, camera fully automatic default setting. The accompanying picture is the original image zoomed out without any modification to the tone. This test is mainly used to test whether the front camera of the mobile phone can Color reproduction ability and Beauty mode Under the correction of skin color.  
Test conclusion ： ZenFone2's camera will automatically enter the beauty mode when starting the front camera, and according to personal preferences Blush 、 Skin 、 skin whitening 、 Big eye 、 Small face Five levels of adjustment. In the beauty mode, the shutter has changed into two modes: instant shutter mode and timed shutter mode. Click it to shoot instantly, and forward manual mode to shoot regularly. Shooting in the default software environment, the front camera has a good ability to measure indoor light, and the photos taken have a very natural correction effect on the skin.

Product evaluation summary ： 
ZenFone2's Hardware performance Leave a deep impression, 4G Memory And excellent Shooting ability Become the biggest highlight. ZenUI is easy to operate, and the interface structure conforms to the traditional operation habits. Android users do not need to be familiar with it easy play . Built in Rich software , users are not forced to use any third-party software, and all third-party software Uninstallable It exists in form and brings great autonomy to users. Child mode 、 Color balance 、 ZenMotion Intelligent gesture The existence of and other auxiliary function software not only increases the privacy security of the system, but also brings great personalized experience. 3000mAh The built-in battery seems to have a smaller capacity. Although it has not undergone rigorous endurance test, I feel that the normal use duration should be thirty-six More than hours 。 
Thank you very much for reading that Scarface comes from Gamer one hundred community I use and write the evaluation content according to the following digital products and software test results. I do not guarantee that other digital products and software versions can have the same use experience.

Postscript  
Metal Sentiment is divided into open case and experience chapters, which is the first evaluation article I wrote from the perspective of interpreting product design style. I have been thinking about what kind of mood ZenFone designers are in, and how they will integrate so many metal elements into their products. The metal wire drawing process expresses a kind of rigidity and becomes so soft and beautiful in the light alternation. If the design of the iPhone can make people feel the power of innovation, then the design of ZenFone will convey a strong belief. Behind every successful digital product model is the designer's interpretation of industrial design aesthetics. It is hoped that every user is not only simply using the product, but also exploring the spiritual world of a brand through the interpretation of the product design concept.
