Asus imitates iPhone X design in its new phones Zenfone 5 and Zenfone 5z

After the announcement of the Zenfone 5 Lite phone at Asus' Backto5 event today, as part of its participation in the MWC 2018 World Mobile Congress in Barcelona, ​​Spain, I announced my phone Zenfone 5 and Zenfone 5z.

These two phones are identical in all specifications except processor quality, RAM size and internal storage space. They are identical in design to the iPhone X, offering a screen that fills almost the whole interface except for a small bump at the top but 26% smaller than the Apple phone, and the two rear cameras come in the same vertical direction as the iPhone X.



"Some people will say that they are imitating Apple, but we can not ignore what users want," said Marcel Campos, head of global marketing for Asus, at a news conference before the event. You have to follow trends. " A recognition by the Taiwanese company that the bump in the iPhone X screen has become a frenzy that companies have to imitate to appease consumers.

Asus says the phones are smart enough to come with AI Boost, which reduces energy consumption while playing, and AI Photography to improve photography by spotting the scene, learning photography habits, setting up a bot, and beautifying the face.

The phone also supports the AI ​​Display feature which keeps the screen in working mode as long as you look at it with the ability to automatically adjust the color temperature. The AI ​​Ringtone feature, which adjusts the volume of the ring tone according to the surrounding noise, is supported.

Because Asus decided to imitate Apple on iPhone X, it did not hesitate to launch a new feature called ZeniMoji that reproduces the feature Animoji. The Zenimoji feature allows you to create 3D images that mimic the user's face expressions, and is useful for calls and live broadcasts.
