Description of the Asus Zenfone 8 8GB
This Asus Zenfone 8 is a compact smartphone with excellent specifications. For example, it is powered by the blazing fast Snapdragon 888 processor and has a super smooth AMOLED screen of 120Hz. It also has an NFC chip and a 3.5mm audio jack for listening to music via wired earphones.
The Zenfone 8 has an NFC chip that allows you to use it for contactless payments, and it fits two SIM cards at once. It is also waterproof according to the IP68 certification and supports the fast 5G network. It is available in black and silver with a choice of 8 or 12GB of RAM.
Compact AMOLED display
The Asus Zenfone 8 has a body that is a bit smaller than most smartphones in its class. However, the screen bezels are very thin so the screen itself covers almost the entire phone on the front. The screen is 5.9 inches and uses AMOLED technology.
This makes colours look very nice on this screen and black tones really do appear black. The screen refreshes itself 120 times per second, which ensures that images run smoothly into each other. This makes the phone feel very fast in daily use!
Good simple cameras
Asus has chosen not to give the Zenfone 8 a camera module with 4 or 5 lenses, but to keep it nice and simple. This phone has two cameras on the back: a main lens of 64 megapixels and an ultra wide-angle lens of 12 megapixels.
Both lenses take very nice pictures with clear details, but you use them in slightly different situations. The main lens is intended for general situations and for photos where you have to zoom in, while the ultra wide angle lens is intended for photos of very wide scenarios.
Powerful processor
To make sure that this Zenfone 8 can run all the apps and games, it is equipped with the Snapdragon 888 processor. This processor is so fast that it can also run heavy apps and 3D games on the highest settings. In addition, everyday tasks also feel very smooth.
For the music lovers
With the Zenfone 8 you can listen to music the way you want to. For example, use Bluetooth to connect your Zenfone with wireless earphones, or connect wired earphones thanks to the 3.5mm audio port! Without earphones, you can still listen to music via the dual-speaker setup.
Data is well protected
To make sure nobody but you can access your apps, photos and files you can secure them in one of two easy ways. Use the fingerprint scanner under the screen to unlock your phone, or use facial recognition to unlock your device even easier!
