Asus revealed the ZenFone 7 and 7 Pro in August 2020 as the first ZenFone devices to support 5G while omitting the audio jack. The 7 is primarily differentiated from the 7 Pro by chipsets and memory options. Both phones retain the previous generation's rotating camera benefiting from a new motor. The module is larger and now houses a triple camera setup with the addition of a 3x zoom telephoto lens. The main sensor has been upgraded to 64 MP and can record video at 8K resolution. The ZenFone 7's display increases to 6.67 inches and switches to an AMOLED panel with a 90 Hz refresh rate. The fingerprint sensor has been repositioned from the back panel to the right edge, and is integrated with the power button. The battery capacity remains the same at 5000 mAh, but has faster 30 W charging. Both run on Android 10 using ZenUI 7.

Asus ZenFone is a series of Android smartphones designed, marketed and produced by Asus since 2014. Various models are powered by a series of Intel Atom, Qualcomm Snapdragon, and MediaTek processors. Some ZenFone also features the Zen UI user interface.

History

[edit]

The first-generation ZenFones were announced at the 2014 Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas, Nevada; it uses the same "Zen" moniker originally introduced with the Asus ZenBook laptops.

ZenUI interface

[edit]

ASUS ZenUI is a front-end touch interface developed by Asus with partners, featuring a full touch user interface. ZenUI also comes with Asus-made apps preloaded like ZenLink (PC Link, Share Link, Party Link & Remote Link).

The ZenUI made its debut in the Asus ZenFone series, Asus Memo Pad 7 (ME176C) and Asus Padfone Mini (2014). Apart from ZenFone, the interface was also used on Asus Pegasus 3, Asus PadFone devices, Asus Memo Pad 7 & 8, Asus Fonepad 7 & 8, Asus Zenpad 10, and Asus Transformer Pad.

WaveShare UI

[edit]

Before ZenUI, Asus made a front-end interface for Android phones and tablets called ASUS WaveShare UI, originally released on the Asus PadFone hybrid smartphone/tablet, and was later used on other Asus products. The last gadget to use the WaveShare UI was the ASUS MeMO Pad HD 7. Devices that used this UI were:

  • Asus PadFone Infinity (A80)
  • Asus Fonepad Note 6 (ME560CG)
  • Asus New PadFone Infinity
  • Asus PadFone 2 (A68)
  • Asus Eee Pad Transformer
  • Asus Slider Pad
  • Asus Eee Pad Slider
  • Asus Fonepad 7(ME372cg)

The Asus ZenFone 6 (Asus 6Z) in Midnight Black

In May 2019, Asus unveiled the ZenFone 6 (Asus 6Z) at a press event in Spain. The ZenFone 6 features a rotating camera in an attempt to reduce bezels and provide an all-screen front. There is a dual camera setup on the phone, which normally resides on the back, but rotates when needed to become a selfie shooter. Asus allows for the rotation of the Liquidmetal camera module to be controlled using a stepper motor.[75] This allows users to stop the rotation midway to take photos at interesting angles and can take automatic panoramas. The company has also added fall-protection for the camera module, which will automatically retract the camera to its base position if the phone detects sudden movement.[76]

The Asus ZenFone 6 prices starts at EUR 499 for the 6 GB + 64 GB variant, going up to 6 GB + 128 GB version will retail at EUR 559, and finally, the top-end 8 GB + 256 GB variant is priced at EUR 599. It was immediately available via the Asus eShop on that day and would start shipping from May 25. Asus has revealed that the phone will be offered in two colours – Midnight Black and Twilight Silver.[77]

The ZenFone 6 was announced to be released in India on 19 June 2019 under the name Asus 6Z, due to a trademark ruling by the Delhi High Court against the sale of products branded "Zen" or "ZenFone" in conflict with Telecare Network India's Zen Mobile.[78][79]

The module is larger and now houses a triple camera setup with the addition of a 3x zoom telephoto lens. The main sensor has been upgraded to 64 MP and can record video at 8K resolution.
