Weekly Flyers

Asus, with the ZenFone family, the world as a whole is attracting a lot of attention, especially among users in our country. It is also very effective to make phones with a capacity to satisfy the users especially with technical staff and to choose relatively competitive prices for the competitor models on the other hand. The model in our hand is a new member of the ZenFone family. The Zoom S has the same design details as the latest dual-camera phones. The two side-by-side lenses on the rear are undoubtedly the largest indicator of this, but not only that; The Zoom S, quite similar to the rear view of the Huawei P10, shows us this with antenna stripes. It should be said that the fingerprint sensor in the middle is reminiscent of the Huawei P9. The lines that soften and roll around the edges, also reminiscent of the Xiaomi Mi 6.

We do not say all these things to make phone calls; especially in the Zoom S. Lightweight sandy aluminum matte finish, rounded edges and 2.5D glass cut on the screen make the phone look good. The thickness of the phone is 7.9 mm. But with rounded edges, therefore, the phone is wrapped in a thinner profile. Let’s also say that the Zoom S is 170 grams in weight. In addition, silver and gold color options can be preferred. In the meantime, let’s also say that this model is showing double SIM card support. If you want to look around the phone right away, we see the sound and power buttons on the right side, the speaker on the bottom, the 3.5 mm headphone jack and the USB Type-C slot, and the SIM card and microSD card drawer on the left. Zoom S’s screen is 5.5 inches in size. The screen offers full HD resolution, with a brightness of 500 nits, giving a brilliant brightness. On the other hand, we have a very good color distribution. Of course, it is a big advantage that the screen is preferred since AMOLED panel. Those who love watching video and movies on the phone will be pleased with deep blacks and rich saturated colors.

On the other hand, it is also necessary to emphasize the fact that, in the point of view of normal use, the appearance of the views and the outward appearance of the display on the outdoors. In the meantime, as a screen saver, let’s look at our adding and operating system to our words of Corning Gorilla Glass 5. In Zoom S we see Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow as the operating system. According to the consensus, the Zoom S will receive Android 7.1.1 Nougat update soon. That’s why you do not have to worry about it. The interface is the same as ZenUI 3.0, as we were seeing in Asus’s previous ZenFone 3 phone models. The easy-to-use ZenUI interface offers a rich shortcut menu when you pull the screen from the top; and when you take it, it brings useful options. From here you can change the theme, access the application and window properties. There are handy applications that come built into the phone. These include the Laser Ruler, which measures distance using the phone’s camera, the Mobile Manager, where you can analyze the phone, and ZenFit, a fitness application. But it’s a pity that you can not get some of them off the phone.

The most important feature of Zoom S is undoubtedly the camera. The Zoom S, with its dual rear camera, uses a 12 MP + 12 MP dual lens. When one of these uses the Sony IMX362 sensor, it comes with a f / 1.7 diaphragm. The 25 mm main lens also has a 4-axis optical image stabilizer. The second camera on the back has a focal length of 59 mm and a f / 2.8 aperture. Together with this camera, there is no doubt that you can take a deep photo called Bokeh. However, you are waiting for a while when you take a photo in depth mode and then prepare a photo. On the Huawei P9, we do not encounter such a waiting period. On the other hand, there is a waiting period while the focal point changes after taking the photograph. Another feature brought by Zoom S’s cameras is the 2.3x optical zoom capability that gives the phone its name. The 2.3x optical zoom and 12x digital zoom make it possible to capture good images, especially in daytime, with contrast ratio and light balance. However, as the light rate drops, you are faced with grains in the zigzag squares. Zoom S, 4-axis optical image stabilizer and laser focusing, which we think you’ll love video capability, can also make 4K video recording. 1080p has 60 frames of video recording; At 4K, you can get 24 frames.

The front camera also has a 13MP Sony IMX214 sensor. 1080p video recording with f / 2.0 aperture is also offered in this camera. No matter which camera you use in Zoom S, you have a lot of options. We recommend using the manual mode to force the phone’s camera capabilities. However, even if you do not do very well in this regard, many modes will help you. These include HDR Pro, Super Resolution, Night, Field Depth, GIF Animation, Fast and Slow Capture modes. Zoom S has Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 625 processor. We saw and examined Moto Z Play, Lenovo P2, and even ZenFone 3 in the seat, which is categorized as middle to upper segment. In that sense, we can say that the capacity of the phone as performance is roughly equivalent to these phones. We say that, because the price of the phone and the technical staff it offers and its reflection on performance, obviously puts the phone into a very controversial spot.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Review here for you. For Note 8, we can say that this is the best big phone you can buy right now. The phone, which provides the upper screen multimedia with the big screen, combines it with the S Pen ability and settles into a different place. With a dual camera and telephoto and depth of field photo capabilities, 6 GB of RAM and high performance and many other details we mentioned, it adds up to a good picture. On the other hand, despite the unfortunate Note 7, Samsung seems to have been a big leap for Note 8 after Note 5. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is a niche smartphone. Those who like to use big phones, those who prefer S Pen Pen for use and can pay a high price for a smartphone, can take care of Galaxy Note 8.

We should not have been mistaken if we told Samsung Galaxy Note 8 that the best smartphones of Samsung were redesigned for productivity and some additional features were introduced. Having suffered a great deal of misfortune with Note 7 last year, Samsung quickly recovered from the scandal and was quite assertive in every respect, and this time it was a completely safe phone. The Note 8, which we have used for a long time, convinced us of a good model for handling and performance, is Samsung’s first dual-camera flagship with its double rear camera. Note that Samsung’s Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 + models are based on the Infinity Display, which is based on the Infinite Display mantle, in the Note Edge, which was launched on the market in 2014. This one-side curved phone was followed by the S6 edge and the curvature was moved to the double side. The users liked this move and wanted more.

Finally, with the Samsung Infinite Display design, the frames are scrubbed over and under, while the side edges are almost offset and created a new trend in the S8. Note that this is followed in Note 8. But this time the screen is bigger. The Galaxy Note 8 has a screen size of 6.3 inches. The big screen is naturally reflected in the design as well. The phone is 162 mm long, 8.6 mm thick and weighs 195 grams. It is quite possible to say that the phone is thick and curved from the front and back surface. In addition, the weight of 195 grams makes the phone heavy. But there’s more to it than that: iPhone 8 Plus. One of the bigger phones in the iPhone 8 Plus, maybe, but weighing 202 grams compared to the 5.5-inch screen, shows that the Note 8 is well done. At this point, we can say that the LG V30 is about 158 grams with a 6.0 inch screen.

Again the thickness of the V30 is 7.4 mm. Note 8 is a well-designed phone that reflects the Premium level with a sense of quality that you can hold in your hand. That is to say, it is a phone that will attract attention when you put it on the table. So it is resistant to dust and water. So is S Pen as well. If you remove S Pen and leave it in the water, nothing happens. Of course there is a limit of 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. I remember her too. The upper edge of Note 8 has microSD and SIM card drawer. Power on the right hand side, sound on the left side and Bixby keys. When we come to the bottom edge, we see 3.5 mm headphone jack, USB-C port, speaker and S Pen socket.

Samsung took the necessary steps to prevent this in Note 8, even a little bit, and applied a small trick: The flash and heart sensor was placed between the fingerprint sensor and the camera. Yes, that works for a little while; but is it enough? Definitely not. Note 8’s greatest expression is undoubtedly the big screen and the S Pen of this screen, which provides a richer experience at the point of productivity. By productivity, of course, this glove is obvious. Productivity will change depending on different usage areas or different user experiences. Very successful drawings can be made with S Pen; At this point, architects, illustrators and illustrators can find out what they are looking for. We can easily say that it is perfect for sketching with pressure sensitivity of 4096 steps in particular. You can see this in our work.

As well as for those who work in writing. The ability to take notes on a closed screen in Note 8, for example, is very useful for us. You can record up to 100 pages on the blank screen and save them. This, in particular, offers us comfort at press conferences. Yes, S Pen can be used for business areas, but it can also be a great advantage in general usage. It also brings fun options. The menu appears on the screen when you remove the S Pen from its slot. Here you’ll find the Create Note, View All Notes, Smart Selection, Screen Note, Live Message, Flip, and Bixby Vision shortcuts. You can also add more here. With S Pen you can also use your social media correspondence or emails to control the phone completely.

While there are nice touches in the sense of design, the Mi 6 is a nice detail to have a body that is resistant to splashes. But I wish it was made entirely waterproof. The company succeeded in the new double-camera push. 6 GB RAM and Snapdragon 835 are also highlights. The Mi 6, which also embodies this with a good battery life performance, could have been faced with a higher resolution display. But let me again say that the 5.15 inch Full HD screen looks pretty good.

In particular, Xiaomi Mi 5, who has been talking a lot about our country in the past year, is getting ready to create a new wave with Mi 6 this time. Although the Xiaomi brand is not yet officially found in our country or through a channel, it is possible to access its phones through reliable online sales channels with importer guarantees. The provocative features of the Xiaomi Mi 5 for its affordable price have caused many flagships to be preferred over the phone. Xiaomi, who continues to aggressive profile in this regard, faces a similar picture in Mi 6.

The Xiaomi Mi 6 is more like the predecessor model with its general design lines. There are also minor differences. But let’s just say that the back of the torso has a shiny surface covered with glass. Coming with a choice of black, white and a striking blue color, the Mi 6 is reminiscent of the Corel Blue color of the Note 7 with its blue color. Xiaomi has also created a special model for more luxurious designs. This model is also referred to as the Mi 6 Exclusive Edition and this phone is made of a black ceramic body with a completely ceramic coating. In addition, 18K gold-plated material around the camera is included in this model. The Mi 6 has slightly rounded lines towards the edges. The phone, made of stainless steel, makes an important difference compared to its predecessor. The Mi 6 is also one of the phones carrying dual cameras. We will talk about it in detail in the camera section.

The Mi 6 has a 5.15-inch screen that offers a 1080-pixel image that looks good with the naked eye. The pixel density of the phone is not so good on paper compared to the Galaxy S8, but you do not realize it when you use the phone. Whether you’re reading social media updates, looking at news, playing games or watching videos, we think you’ll be pleased with the screen of the phone.

The display can reach up to 600 nt brightness within a day, so you do not have difficulty seeing the screen under the sun. The screen produces a 428-pixel image per inch, and the nights are comfortable with a 1-nit brightness in night mode for comfortable readability. Let’s say that the screen-to-body ratio of the phone is 71 percent, and that both the front and rear panels are protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 5, and I’ll be in the operating system.

We see Nougat up to date operating system as of 6 Mi. As a customized version of Android 7.1.1 version, we still use MIUI version 8.0, which comes with the MIUI interface. The phone, which consumes less power than the 8.0 version of the interface, contributes to battery consumption. Let’s also talk about the battery life of the Mi 6 when it’s ready. Mi 6’s battery is at 3350 mAh capacity. This, of course, requires us to expect a very long battery life. We have seen this in the wake of the tests we did. Because we have done 17 hours and 35 minutes in intensive daytime tests. For reference, the Galaxy S8 + took 18 hours from a similar test.

Again, in our video test that we applied to Mi 6, we saw that it drained the battery for 13 hours. Also the phone offers about 12.5 hours of web circulation and 17 hours of conversation time. The phone has a fast charge of course. With Quick Charge 3.0, you can fill up 55 percent of your phone in 30 minutes. Let’s also talk about the battery life of the Mi 6 when it’s ready.
