Xilligii dayrta ayaa halkan jooga ASUS waxay diyaar u tahay taxane cusub oo casriga ah ee ZenFone . Shirkaddu waxay soo bandhigaysaa saddex nooc oo kala duwan, dhammaantoodna isku jiil ah: ASUS ZenFone 3 , ASUS ZenFone 3 Deluxe iyo ASUS ZenFone 3 Ultra . Dhammaantood waxay leeyihiin sifooyin qalab adag iyo mid kasta oo casriga ah wuxuu daboolayaa qayb qiimo kala duwan. Dhowr toddobaad ka hor, waxaan gacanta ku helnay ASUS ZenFone 3^{(ASUS ZenFone 3)} ( ZE520KL), kaas oo ah muuqaalka wanaagsan ee walaalka yar ee qoyska cusub: waa 5.2 inch smartphone oo leh wax badan oo la yiraahdo iyo xitaa in ka badan si loo muujiyo. Ka dib markii si fiican loo tijaabiyey oo loo isticmaalo maalin kasta, dib u eegistan, waxaan jeclaan lahayn inaan kuu sheegno sida ay u shaqeyso, waxa aan ka helnay iyo waxa ay daciifto:

Tilmaamaha qalabka^(Hardware) iyo baakaynta

Casriga casriga ah ee ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL wuxuu ku yimaadaa kartoon madow oo u muuqda oo dareemaya qiimo sare. Naqshadaynta ASUS ee loo isticmaalo baakadaha waa mid aad u fudud oo yar, laakiin sidoo kale xarrago leh. Dhinaca sare ee sanduuqu waxa uu hayaa magaca Zenfone 3 oo kaliya ee dhexda ku yaal.

Magaca shirkadda Taiwan sidoo kale lama waayi karo - si hoose ayay ugu xardhan tahay sanduuqa dhinac ka mid ah. Guntu waa meesha aad ka hesho macluumaad faahfaahsan oo ku saabsan waxa ku jira. Halkaa waxa aad ka heli doontaa istiikaro ay ku qoran yihiin magaca talefanka casriga ah ee aad hadda soo iibsatay, iyo sidoo kale qaar ka mid ah tafaasiisha farsamo ee ku saabsan qalabkiisa iyo software-kiisa.

Xirmadu waxay u furan tahay si la mid ah sanduuqa saacadaha waxayna haysaa ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL casriga ah, dabaysha awooda iyo USB laga saari karo fiilada USB Type C , laba sameecadood iyo qalab dhegaha oo leh cabbiro kala duwan, biin bir ah oo lagu saarayo Saxaarad SIM^(SIM) oo laga saaray taleefanka casriga ah, kaarka dammaanadda, hagaha bilowga degdegga ah iyo qaar ka mid ah dukumeentiyada kale.

Aragtidayadii ugu horreysay markii aan furnay xirmada oo aan eegnay ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL waxay ahayd inaan gacmahayaga ku hayno qalab qaali ah. Sida aan dhawaan arki doono, casrigan casriga ah waa tartan adag oo ka mid ah taleefannada casriga ah ee dhexdhexaadka ah ee ugu sarreeya suuqa.

Awooda farsamaynta sidoo kale waxa caawiyay Adreno 506 chip garaafyada. Xagga xusuusta, ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL waxay la iman kartaa 3 ama 4GB ee xusuusta LPDDR3 RAM , iyo 32 ama 64GB ee meel kaydinta lagu dhex dhisay, iyadoo ku xidhan nooca aad soo iibsatay. Waxa aanu ku tijaabinay qaabka 4GB ee RAM iyo 64GB ee meel kaydinta gudaha ah. Ka sokow waxa aad helayso bilawga, haddii aad rabto inaad kordhiso awoodda kaydinta taleefankaaga casriga ah, waa inaad ogaataa inaad sidoo kale ku dari karto MicroSDkaarka ilaa 2TB.

Waxay u egtahay in ASUS ay fahantay muhiimada kamarada casriga ah si ka fiican qaar badan oo ka mid ah soosaarayaasha kale, iyo ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL , waxay runtii shaqo fiican ka qabteen aaggan. Taleefanka casriga ah wuxuu isticmaalaa kamarada danbe ee weyn oo leh 16 megapixels sensor, af/2.0 aperture iyo 6P Largan lens. Kamaradu waxay sidoo kale ka faa'iidaysanaysaa 0.03 labaad oo ah auto-focus, 4-axis Optical Image Stabilization system iyo Dual-LED flash tone dhabta ah. Dhanka hore ee taleefanka casriga ah, ASUS waxaa ku jiray kamarad 8 megapixel ah oo leh f / 2.0 aperture taas oo noqon doonta farxad dhammaan kuwa jecel selfie. 🙂

Isagoo ka hadlaya fursadaha isku xirnaanta, waxaa muhiim ah in la ogaado in ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL uu yahay talefanka casriga ah ee SIM dual^{(dual SIM smartphone)} , taasoo la macno ah in ay isku mar ku shaqeyn karto laba SIM kaarar. Waxa ay ku xidhi kartaa shabakadaha mobaylada ee 4G (inkasta oo SIM kaliya uu isticmaali karo 4G markiiba), waxa kale oo uu leeyahay 4.2^{(Bluetooth 4.2)} Chip Bluetooth ah oo ku dhex dhex jira oo loogu talagalay isku xirka wireless-ka. Marka la eego isku xirka wireless-ka, waxay la shaqeysaa chip network oo ku habboon heerarka isku xirka 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, si ay ugu xirto labada shabakadood ee 2.4GHz iyo 5GHz.

ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL sidoo^(ZE520KL) kale waxay la socotaa dareemeyaal kala duwan oo lagu rakibay. Marka laga soo tago dareemayaasha caadiga ah sida xawaaraha mitirka, gyroscope, u dhowaanshaha ama iftiinka iftiinka, ASUS sidoo kale waxaa ku jira sawir qaade faraha oo ku yaal dhabarka aaladda, kaas oo aad u isticmaali karto inaad ku furto taleefanka casriga ah ama aad ku caddeyso abka kala duwan.

Madax-bannaanida casrigan casriga ah waxaa bixiya batari 2650mAh ah oo aan la saari karin, oo ay la socdaan jiilka cusub ee chipset waa in ay bixiyaan wax ka badan hal maalin oo nolosha batteriga ah.

Haddii cabbirka iyo miisaanku ay yihiin waxyaabo aad danaynayso, waa inaad ogaataa inay miisaankeedu yahay 5.08 wiqiyadood (144 garaam) jidhka oo leh 5.78 inji (146.87mm) oo dherer ah, 2.91 inji (73.98mm) ballac ah iyo 0.30 inji (7.69mm) dhumucdiisuna tahay.

Marka la eego awoodda qalabka, ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL waxay haysataa wax kasta oo aad filan karto iyo xoogaa ka badan oo ah taleefannada casriga ah ee dhexe.^{(In terms of hardware power, the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL has everything you'd expect and a bit more from a top mid range smartphone.)}

Nakhshad iyo dhis tayo leh

Waxaan ku bilaabi doonaa qaybtan innagoo nidhaahna ASUS ZenFone 3 ^{(ASUS ZenFone 3)} ZE520KL waa mid ka mid ah taleefannada casriga ah ee Android ugu muuqda ee aan fursad u helnay inaan tijaabino xagaagan. Waxa laga yaabaa inay tahay talefanka casriga ah ee dhex-dhexaadka ah, oo leh qiime aan cirka ahayn, laakiin taasi macnaheedu maaha in ASUS ay samaysay tanaasul marka ay timaaddo naqshadaynta iyo agabka loo isticmaalo dhismaha ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL .

Taleefanka casriga ah ayaa lagu heli karaa afar midab oo kala duwan: Sapphire Black, Moonlight White, Aqua Blue iyo Shimmer Gold , oo aad ku arki karto sawirka hoose. Midka aan tijaabinay waa moode Sapphire Black^{(Sapphire Black)} kaas oo, ugu yaraan ra'yigeenna, u muuqda mid weyn.

Sida aan sidoo kale si kooban ugu sheegnay qaybta qalabka qalabka ee dib u eegistan, labadaba shaashadda iyo dhabarka taleefanka casriga ah waxay ku daboolan yihiin muraayado. Isticmaalka maaddadan waxay leedahay qayb wanaagsan iyo mid xun labadaba. ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL waxay^(ZE520KL) u egtahay mid qurux badan waxayna si fiican ugu habboonaan doontaa labbis kasta oo qurxoon. Laakiin dhammaan muraayadahaas, dhinac kasta, waxay sidoo kale ka dhigan tahay in casriga ah uu yahay magnet faraha oo aysan jirin wax badan oo aad ka qaban karto. Ilaa^(Unless) ,dabcan, aad mar walba nadiifin doonto, taasina waxay kuu horseedi kartaa xanuunka OCD oo aadan rabin inaad yeelato. 🙂

Hubaal, waxaad sidoo kale heli kartaa naftaada kiis ilaalin oo wanaagsan oo aad geliso taleefankaaga casriga ah gudaha, laakiin maxaad taas ugu samayn kartaa casrigan quruxda badan? Ceeb bay ahaan lahayd in sidaas la qariyo. Iyo, waayo-aragnimadeena, waxaan kuu sheegi karnaa in kiisasku inta badan farageliyaan sida tooshku u shaqeeyo oo ay sidoo kale u badan tahay inay adkaan doonto in la gaaro dareeraha sawirka faraha ee gadaasha taleefanka. Dhammaan muraayadahaas taleefanka casriga ah waxay ku kulmaan cidhifyada qalloocan oo laga sameeyay balaastiig matte ah oo la xoojiyay laakiin sidoo kale loo qaabeeyey laba khad oo dhuuban oo bir caday ah.

Dhanka hore ee talefanka casriga ah waxa u badan muraayada 5.2 inch ah, laakiin waxa kale oo ay hoy u tahay kamarada hore iyo sameecada dhegta ee sare, iyo saddexda badhanka Android ee hoose. Isagoo ka hadlaya taas, ASUS waxay dooratay inay isticmaasho badhamada awooda taabashada dhammaan saddexda ficil ee Android : Back, Home iyo Apps-ka dhawaan^{(Recent apps)} . Waxaan had iyo jeer nidhi in noocan oo kale ah badhamada "jirka" waa doorashadayada door bidaan on casriga kasta. Waxaan ka jecelnahay iyaga si ka fiican badhamada software-ka ee ku dhejisan bandhiga qaar ka mid ah taleefannada casriga ah sababtoo ah ma dareemaan inay qaadanayaan booska shaashadda. Waxaan rabnay si kastaba ha ahaatee in iyagana la iftiimin lahaa, maadaama ay u yara fududaan lahaayeen in gudcurka laga helo.

Saddexda badhan ee kale - badhanka awoodda iyo mugga ruxul - dhammaan waxa laga helay cidhifka sare ee midig ee ASUS ZenFone 3 . Waxay leeyihiin jawaab celin taabasho leh oo xoog badan, laakiin aad u wanaagsan, sidoo kale aad bay u fududahay in la kala saaro sababtoo ah dusha sare ee la cadayday iyo geesahooda fiiqan.

Cidhifka ka soo horjeeda - kan bidix - waa ka nadiifsan yahay badhamada ama jaakadaha, laakiin waxay hoy u tahay saxaaradda SIM . Si aad u furto, waa inaad isticmaashaa biinka birta ah ee xirmada ama biin kasta oo yar.

Cidhifka sare ee ASUS ZenFone 3 waa meesha aad ka heli doonto jaakadda maqalka ah ee 3.5mm iyo makarafoonka sare, halka cidhifka hoose aad ka heli doonto dekedda USB Type C , giraanta cod-baahiyaha iyo makarafoonka aasaasiga ah.

Ugu dambeyntii, dhabarka dambe ee taleefanka casriga ah waxaa u badan kamarada iyo dareenka faraha. ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL waxay^(ZE520KL) bixisaa kamarad wanaagsan oo aan helnay inay si ka fiican u qabato kuwa badan oo kale oo casriga ah ee qaybtan qiimaha. Laakiin, sababtoo ah ASUS waxay isticmaashay dareeme kamarad wanaagsan, iyo sidoo kale muraayado wanaagsan, iyo sababtoo ah waxay ku guulaysteen inay dhisaan casriga khafiifka ah ee quruxda badan, dhinaca hoose ayaa ah in kamaradu tahay "kuus" dhabarka ASUS ZenFone 3 . Waxba naguma dhibayso, run ahaantii waxaan jecelnahay talefannada casriga ah ee leh kamaradaha soo baxaya, sababtoo ah waxay dareemayaan inay yihiin kuwo ku jihaysan sawir-qaadis. Taas oo^(Which) run ahaantii run ku saabsan ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL, laakiin wax badan ayaan taas kaga hadli doonaa qaybta kamarada ee faallooyinkan.

Ilaa inta dareemaha sawirka faraha uu socdo, waa mid aad u fiican. Ka dib markii la rakibay, furitaanka taleefanka casriga ah wuxuu ahaa mid fudud sida ku qaadashada gacantayda. Dareemuhu waxa uu ku yaalaa meesha ugu fiican ee farteyda murdisada ah si aan u cadaadiyo, markaa waxay ku dhowdahay dhaqdhaqaaq dabiici ah oo lagu furayo casriga. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, dareemaha sawirka faraha ayaa maamula inuu aqoonsado farahaaga ilaa 4 jeer 5. Hal mar shantii, waxaa laga yaabaa inay guuldareysato. Taasi waa heerka hawlkarnimo ee aad ugu wanaagsan ra'yigeenna.

Guud ahaan, ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL wuxuu u muuqdaa mid aad uga fiican sidii aad ka filan lahayd taleefannada casriga ah ee dhexdhexaadka ah iyo agabyada ay adeegsato shirkadda Taiwanese waxay dareemayaan tayo sare.^{(Overall, the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL looks a whole lot better than you'd expect from a mid range smartphone and the materials used by the Taiwanese company feel like premium quality.)}

Khibrada casriga ah ee casriga ah ee ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL

Mid ka mid ah walxaha muhiimka ah ee khibrada isticmaalka casriga ah ee wanaagsan waa tayada shaashadda ee aad hesho. Nasiib wanaag, ASUS waxay qabatay shaqo aad u fiican aaggan - waxay yiraahdeen ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL waxay leedahay 75.6% saamiga shaashadda iyo bandhig awood u leh inuu bixiyo 600 nits dhalaalka ugu badan. Kuma doodi karno, maadaama 5.2 inch Full HD bandhigay uu u muuqdo mid wanaagsan xitaa xaaladaha iftiinka dhalaalaya, oo ay ku jiraan marka loo isticmaalo iftiinka qorraxda tooska ah. Waxaa dheer, xaglaha daawashada waa kuwo aad u wanaagsan, midabadu waa qani iyo firfircooni qoraalkuna wuxuu u muuqdaa mid aad u qallafsan. Ma jiro wax xun oo aan ka dhihi karno, maadaama ay tahay bandhig aad u wanaagsan. 🙂

Markaa, waxa ugu weyn ee soo socda ee ka dhigaya taleefanka casriga ah ee bixiya khibrad isticmaale oo wanaagsan waa habka uu u shaqeeyo. Taas waxaan ka fakareynaa sida ugu dhakhsaha badan ee casriga ah uga jawaabo amarradaada. ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL si^(ZE520KL) fiican ayuu uga shaqeeyaa aaggan: waligeen maanu dareemin inay caajis tahay waligayna maanu arag inay is xidhay ama dib isu bilaabayso. Si degdeg ah ayay u soo dejisaa oo ay u rakibtaa abka (gaar ahaan shabakadda Wi-Fi ee 5GHz degdega ah), abka iyo ciyaaraha aannu wadnayna dhammaantood si fiican ayay u shaqeeyeen.

Horaantii, qaybta tafaasiisha qalabka ee dib u eegistan, waxaan ku soo sheegnay in ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL uu yahay talefanka casriga ah ee ^(ZE520KL)SIM dual . Taas macnaheedu waa in aad isku mar isticmaali karto laba SIM- kaar. In kasta oo labada boos ee SIM- ka ay taageeraan 3G WCDMA iyo 4G LTE xadhkaha^(LTE) shabakadaha, kaliya mid iyaga ka mid ah ayaa ku xidhmi kara shabakad 3G ama 4G ah markiiba. SIM- ka kale wuxuu kaliya ku shaqeyn doonaa shabakad 2G kiiskan oo kale ah. Waxa kale oo mudan in la xuso, haddii aad u isticmaali doonto ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE620KL sidii talefanka gacanta ee dual SIM , mid ka mid ah kaararka SIM waa inuu noqdaa micro SIM .Kaarka, halka kan kalena uu yahay nano SIM card.

Marka labaad, haddii aad rabto inaad ku darto kaarka microSD ee casrigaaga si aad u kordhiso awoodda kaydinta, kaarka microSD waa in la geliyo booska nano SIM , markaa kiiskan, ma awoodid inaad isticmaasho casriga ah Qaabka SIM-ka ee labada^{(Dual SIM)} ah.

Ilaa iyo inta aan ku haysanay imtixaannada, waxaan dhihi karnaa ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL waxay si la yaab leh uga shaqeysay aragtida isticmaalaha "telefoonka". Marna dhib kalama kulmin soo dhawaynta ishaarada, wada sheekaysiga taleefoonka ee aanu ku wada sheekaysanayna waxa ay ahaayeen kuwo tayadoodu aad u wanaagsanayd. Adiga iyo qofka aad la hadlaysaanba si fudud ayaad isu fahmi doontaan. Dhinac kale oo aan uga mahadcelinnay ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL ayaa ah in, in kasta oo aan ku ilaalinay "wacitaanada" mugga codka heerka ugu sarreeya, dadka nagu wareegsan ma fahmi karaan waxa qofka dhinaca kale ka hadlaayo. Taasi waxay la macno tahay in qalabka dhegta uu si fiican u shaqeeyo, sidoo kale waxay la macno tahay in wada hadalkaaga gaarka ahi uu ahaado mid gaar ah. 🙂

Ilaa inta tayada maqalku ay socoto marka la ciyaarayo faylalka warbaahinta, cod- baahiyaha ASUS ZenFone 3 ^{(ASUS ZenFone 3)} ZE520KL aad ayuu u fiican yahay ASUS xitaa waxay ku faantaa "5 ku hadla magnetka" ay ku isticmaaleen. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, in kasta oo aanay ahayn dhawaaqyo qalloocan oo tayada maqalku ay ka wanaagsan tahay, haddana ma odhan karno si kasta oo macno leh ayay noo cajabisay. Haddii aad rabto tayo aad u wanaagsan, sameecadaha dhegaha ee wanaagsan ayaa ku siin doona natiijo aad u wanaagsan.

Marka la eego madax-bannaanida, batteriga 2650mAh ee aan la saari karin ayaa u suurtagashay inuu nagu sii wado qiyaastii hal maalin isagoo lacag buuxa ah. Taas waxaa ka mid ah waxqabadyada isticmaale kasta oo casriga ah ee caadiga ah uu qabto: wicitaanada taleefanka iyo fariimaha qoraalka, daalacashada webka, akhrinta iyo ka jawaabista iimaylada, dhex galka Facebook , ka eegida bisadaha qosolka leh ee YouTube iyo ciyaarista ciyaaraha caadiga ah waqti ka waqti. Ma aha nolosha batteriga cajiibka ah, laakiin waxay si fiican ugu dhacdaa xeerarka taleefannada casriga ah ee dhexdhexaadka ah.

ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL waa taleefan casri ah oo aad u wanaagsan: bandhiggu wuxuu u muuqdaa mid weyn oo qalabku wax dhibaato ah kuma laha bixinta awood ku filan waxqabad kasta. Waxaan sidoo kale u mahadcelinnay tayada aadka u wanaagsan ee wicitaannada taleefanka ee aan ku helnay.^{(The ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL is a very good smartphone: the display looks great and the hardware has no issues in offering enough power for any activity. We also appreciated the very good quality of the phone calls we had on it.)}

Akhri bogga xiga ee dib u eegistan si aad wax badan uga ogaato khibrada kamarada ee casrigan, software-ka lagu rakibay iyo wax ku saabsan waxqabadka uu ku bixiyo bartilmaameedyada.

Reviewing the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL - The new king of affordable flagships

The fall season іs here and ASUЅ is ready with a new series of ZenFone smartphonеs. The compаny is launching three different models, all in the ѕame generation: the ASUS ZenFone 3, the ASUS ZenFone 3 Deluxe and the ASUS ZenFоne 3 Ultra. All of them haνe sоlid hardware characteristics and each smartphone covers a diffеrent price segment. A few weeks ago, we got our hands on the ASUS ZenFone 3 (ZE520KL), which is the good looking little brother of the new family: it's a 5.2 inch smartрhone with a lot to say and even more to shоw off. After testing it thoroughly and using it on a daily basis, in thіs review, we'd like to tell you how it works, what wе lіked about it and what its weaknesses are:

Hardware specifications and packaging

The ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL smartphone comes in a black cardboard box that looks and feels premium. The design ASUS used for the packaging is very simple and minimalistic, yet also elegant. The top side of the box holds just the Zenfone 3 name in the center.

The Taiwanese company's name couldn't be missing either - it's embossed subtly on a side of the box. The bottom is the place where you get detailed information about the contents. There you'll find a sticker with the name of the smartphone you just bought, as well as some technical details about its hardware and software specifications.

The package opens similarly to a watch box and it holds the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL smartphone, its power charger and a removable USB to USB Type C cable, a pair of headphones and a set of earbuds with various sizes, a metal pin for ejecting the SIM tray out of the smartphone, the warranty card, a quick start guide and some other documentation.

Our first impression when we opened the package and looked at the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL was that we were holding a premium device in our hands. As we'll soon see, this smartphone is a strong challenger of the top mid range smartphones on the market.

Due to its 5.2 inch screen, the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL is a smartphone with a medium size, that will fit your hands regardless if you have large or small hands. The display used for this smartphone is a Super IPS+ capacitive touchscreen with a FullHD (1080 x 1920 pixels) resolution and a 424 ppi pixel density. The IPS part of these specifications means that the screen should offer natural colors, a good contrast ratio and some very good brightness levels.

It's also worth noting that both the display and the back of the smartphone are protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 2.5D. What that means is that the smartphone's screen and back are protected by a reinforced glass sheet that's curved to the edges. There are two benefits to this choice: the smartphone looks better from an aesthetics point of view, and the edges are more ergonomic. When you hold and use the smartphone, your fingers will meet only smooth surfaces all around the edges.

Enter the insides of the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL and you'll find that it runs on a 64-bit octa-core 2.0GHz Cortex-A53 processor and a Qualcomm MSM8953 Snapdragon 625 chipset. That processing power is also aided by an Adreno 506 graphics chip. In terms of memory, the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL can come with 3 or 4GB of LPDDR3 RAM memory, and with 32 or 64GB of built-in storage space, depending on the model that you buy. We tested the model with 4GB of RAM memory and 64GB of internal storage space. Besides what you get from the start, if you want to increase your smartphone's storage capacity, you should know that you can also add a MicroSD card of up to 2TB.

It looks like ASUS understood the importance of the camera on a smartphone better than many other manufacturers, and on the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL, they did a really good job in this area. The smartphone uses a main rear camera with a 16 megapixels sensor, a f/2.0 aperture and 6P Largan lens. The camera also benefits from a 0.03 second laser auto-focus, a 4-axis Optical Image Stabilization system and a Dual-LED real tone flash. On the front of the smartphone, ASUS included a 8 megapixel camera with an f/2.0 aperture that should be the delight of all selfie lovers. 🙂

Talking about the connectivity options , it's important to note that the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL is a dual SIM smartphone , meaning that it can work with two SIM cards at the same time. It can connect to 4G mobile networks (although only one SIM can use 4G at a time), and it also has a built-in Bluetooth 4.2 chip for close range wireless connections. In terms of wireless connectivity, it works with a network chip that's compatible with the 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac networking standards, so it can connect to both 2.4GHz and to 5GHz wireless networks.

The ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL also comes with a variety of sensors installed. Beside the common sensors like the accelerometer, gyroscope, proximity or ambient light sensor, ASUS also included a fingerprint scanner on the back of the device, which you can use to unlock the smartphone or authenticate in various apps.

The autonomy of this smartphone is offered by a non-removable 2650mAh battery that, together with the new generation chipset should give more than a day's worth of battery life on a charge.

If size and weight are things you care about, you should know that it weighs 5.08 ounces (144 grams) in a body with 5.78 inches ( 146.87mm) in length, 2.91 inches (73.98mm) in width and 0.30 inches (7.69mm) in thickness.

If you'd like to see more details about the specifications of the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL, check its official website: ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL.

In terms of hardware power, the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL has everything you'd expect and a bit more from a top mid range smartphone.

Design and build quality

We will start this section by saying that the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL is one of the best looking Android smartphones we've had the chance to test this summer. It may be a midrange smartphone, with a price tag that's not sky high, but that doesn't mean that ASUS made compromises when it comes to the design and the materials used in building the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL.

The smartphone is available in four color variations: Sapphire Black, Moonlight White, Aqua Blue and Shimmer Gold , which you can see in the picture below. The one we've tested is a Sapphire Black model which, at least in our opinion, looks great.

As we also briefly mentioned in the hardware specs section of this review, both the screen and the back of the smartphone are covered in glass. Using this material has both a good part and a bad one. The ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL looks stylish and will fit nicely with any elegant attire. But all that glass, on every side, also means that the smartphone is a fingerprint magnet and there's not much you can do about it. Unless, of course, you're going to clean it all the time, and that could lead to an OCD disorder you don't want to have. 🙂

Sure, you could also get yourself a nice protective case and put your smartphone inside, but why do that with such a gorgeous smartphone? It would be a shame to hide it just like that. And, from our own experience, we can tell you that cases usually interfere with how the flashlight works and it's also probably going to be harder to reach the fingerprint sensor on the back of the phone. All that glass on the smartphone meets on the curved edges made from matte plastic and strengthened but also stylized by two very thin lines of brushed metal.

The front of the smartphone is dominated by the 5.2 inch display, but it's also home to the front camera and the ear speaker at the top, and the three Android buttons on the bottom. Speaking of which, ASUS chose to use touch capacitive buttons for all three Android default actions: Back, Home and Recent apps. We always said that this type of "physical" buttons is our preferred choice on any smartphone. We like them better than the software buttons embedded on the display of some smartphones simply because they don't feel like they're taking our screen's space. We wished however that they would have also been illuminated, as they would have been slightly easier to find in the dark.

The other three buttons - the power button and the volume rocker - are all found on the top right edge of the ASUS ZenFone 3. They have a rather strong, but very pleasant, tactile feedback and they're also very easy to differentiate because of their brushed surfaces and sharp edges.

The opposite edge - the left one - is clear of any buttons or jacks, but it is home to the SIM tray. To open it, you will have to use the metal pin from the package or any small pin.

The top edge of the ASUS ZenFone 3 is the place where you'll find the 3.5mm audio jack and the secondary microphone, while on the bottom edge you'll find the USB Type C port, the loudspeaker grille and the primary microphone.

Finally, the back of the smartphone is dominated by the camera and the fingerprint sensor. The ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL offers a good camera that we found to perform better than those on many other smartphones in this price category. But, because ASUS used a good camera sensor, as well as a good set of lenses, and because they managed to build a pretty thin smartphone, the downside is that the camera is "a bump" on the back of the ASUS ZenFone 3. It doesn't bother us, in fact we like smartphones with protruding cameras, because they feel like being a bit more photography oriented. Which is actually true about the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL, but we'll talk more about that in the camera section of this review.

As far as the fingerprint sensor goes, it's a pretty good one. After setting it up, unlocking the smartphone was as easy as taking it in my hand. The sensor is positioned in the perfect place for my index finger to press, so it's almost a natural movement to unlock the smartphone. However, the fingerprint sensor manages to identify your fingerprint about 4 times out of 5. One time out of five, it may fail. That's an efficiency rate that's quite good in our opinion.

Overall, the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL looks a whole lot better than you'd expect from a mid range smartphone and the materials used by the Taiwanese company feel like premium quality.

The smartphone experience on the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL

One of the key elements of a good smartphone usage experience is the quality of the screen you get. Fortunately, ASUS did a great job in this area - they say that the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL has a 75.6% screen-to-body ratio and a display capable of offering a 600 nits maximum brightness. We can't argue, as the 5.2 inch Full HD display looks good even in bright light conditions, including when using it in direct sunlight. Plus, the viewing angles are very good, the colors are rich and vibrant and the text looks really crisp. There's nothing bad we can say about it, as it is a very good display. 🙂

Then, the next big thing in what makes a smartphone offer a good user experience is the way it works. By that we're thinking at how fast the smartphone responds to your commands. The ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL performs very well in this area: we never felt it to be laggy and we have never seen it block or restart itself. It downloads and installs apps quite fast (especially on a fast 5GHz Wi-Fi network), and the apps and games we ran all worked very well.

Earlier, in the hardware specs section of this review, we mentioned that the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL is a dual SIM smartphone. That means that you can simultaneously use two SIM cards. Although both SIM card slots support 3G WCDMA and 4G LTE network bands, only one of them can connect to a 3G or 4G network at a time. The other SIM will only work on a 2G network in such a case. It's also worth mentioning that, if you will be using the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE620KL as a dual SIM smartphone, one of the SIM cards has to be a micro SIM card, while the other has to be a nano SIM card.

Secondly, if you will want to add a microSD card to your smartphone in order to increase its storage capacity, that microSD card must be inserted in the nano SIM slot, so in this case, you won't be able to use the smartphone in Dual SIM mode.

For as long as we had it in tests, we can say that the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL worked admirably from a "phone" user viewpoint. We never had problems with the signal reception, and the phone conversations we had were of very good quality. Both you and the person to whom you're speaking will easily understand each other. Another aspect that we appreciated in the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL is that, although we kept the "in calls" sound volume at the maximum level, people around us couldn't understand what the person on the other side was saying. That means that the earpiece does a good job, and it also means that your private conversations remain private. 🙂

As far as the audio quality goes when playing media files, the loudspeaker on the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL is pretty good and ASUS even brags about the "5 magnet speaker" they used on it. However, although it's not distorting sounds and the audio quality is more than decent, we can't say that it impressed us in any meaningful way. If you want very good quality, a good set of headphones will offer you a much better result.

In terms of autonomy, the 2650mAh non-removable battery managed to last us for about a day on a full charge. That includes activities every regular smartphone user performs: phone calls and text messages, browsing the web, reading and answering emails, scrolling through Facebook, looking at funny cats on YouTube and playing casual games from time to time. It's not an impressive battery life, but it falls well within the norms of mid-range smartphones.

The ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE520KL is a very good smartphone: the display looks great and the hardware has no issues in offering enough power for any activity. We also appreciated the very good quality of the phone calls we had on it.
