Asus Zenfone 3 Specs feature 6GB RAM, USB Type C, a strong processor by Intel Atom, 4500 mAH or bigger and a decent camera sensor. See now our Top 4 Asus Zenfone 3 rivals with 6GB RAM, 27MP and more…

So, what are they? Let’s check out the list below:

Samsung Galaxy S7

Sony Xperia Z5 Plus

Huawei Mate 8

HTC One M10

As the smartphone industry we have right now are more competitive than ever, the Asus Zenfone 3 is not the only good beast to be expected. We have for you 4 more devices, also with very favorable features and great potential to become best-sellers. Check out what Asus Zenfone 3 rivals have to offer.

Samsung Galaxy S7

Samsung Galaxy S7 is definitely a super star lately. This future flagship from the Korean giant will feature their own chip set Exynos 8890, proven to be one of the most powerful ever. The device will also offer a brand new camera experience for users , as Samsung is negotiating with Sony to take over their IMX 300

Sony Xperia Z5 Plus

This Sony Xperia Z5 Plus is targeted to be one of the first mobile devices to try on premium Snapdragon 820 chip set. Sony Xperia Z5 Plus specs we know for now include: 5.3 inch FHD IPS Display, 4GB RAM, 23MP camera with the famous IMX 300 sensor that Samsung is trying to buy. To power the handset we have 3100 mAH battery. Enough to beat Asus Zenfone 3, do you think? Actually, Sony Xperia Z5 Plus is a concept designed by Babak Soren. He is the same designer for Sony Xperia S5 concept that we all love. Sony Xperia Z5 Plus design comes with different color options to best fit a wider range of customers. Anyhow, we hope that Sony will bring this promising Xperia Z5 successor to real life soon.

Huawei Mate 8

Kirin 950 is a powerful chip set by Huawei, with super crazy benchmark result, impressing many users. The Huawei Mate 8 is the smartphone planned to feature the processor. Earlier in PricePony, we have marked that Huawei Mate 8 can be a direct rival to Samsung Galaxy S7, emphasizing that it can be one of the very competitive Asus Zenfone 3 rivals in 2016

HTC One M10

This One M10 smartphone by HTC is much more silent than other three counterparts. This is why not many people really know how awesome HTC One M10 can be. Here are some specs we can start expecting by now:

• Display : 5.5-inch QHD screen(2,560 x 1,400 resolution)
• 4th generation Corning’s Gorilla Glass
• Processor : Qualcomm Snapdragon 820/ Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 810
• 6GB RAM
• 64GB and 128GB Internal memory
• 27-megapixel rear camera
• 5-megapixel front camera

Asus Zenfone 3 Specs, Price and Release Date

Asus Zenfone 3 is such a great beast. However, these 4 Asus Zenfone 3 rivals above are not less awesome. The Asus Zenfone 3 Release Date will be most likely in March 2016, with 6GB RAM. We expect the Asus Zenfone 3 Price to be around 300-350 USD, similar to the Asus Zenfone 2 Price at Release.

Due to the openness of Android, you may think that it cannot prevent malware effectively but iOS can. However, today perhaps you will change your mind when reports say that Android is safer and more secure than iOS.

Android may be not 100% secure but iOS is even less secure!

This is a study conducted by Checkmarx and AppSec Labs. Accordingly, Apple’s App Store is filled with apps vulnerable to security if compared to Android apps. In other words, harmful elements can approach the phones with iOS more easily than the ones with Android OS.

Besides, the report of the study mentions a critical vulnerability is defined as one “that exposes a major security risk with a direct exploit (not needing user involvement). If exploited, the security threat might cause major damage to the application and/or have major impact on the company,” which hints that iOS is not a malware-proof operating system and unfortunately there is no safe OS in the world at the moment. Hackers even like being challenged by attacking big names known as unbreakable.

“With More Than 1.5 Million Apps Available In The Two Main App Stores, Apple And Android, And Hundreds Of Billions Of Downloads To Date, The Mobile Landscape Has Quickly Become The Main Playground For Hackers And Attackers.”

Thanks to the study, we now know 36 percent of Android apps and up to 40 percent of iOS apps were possibly dangerous. We would not be surprised if cases like InstaAgent on the App Store happen again (it was reported to have been leaking Instagram username and passwords, sending them to some remote server and publishing unauthorized images without their owners’ permission.

Android is better than iOS, but is it totally good news?

Well, actually we are not very happy to know this result even when it proves Android is better than iOS. We are caring more about users’ privacy once using their own handsets. Hopefully someday there will be a 100% secure OS for us to use!

Asus Zenfone 3 VS Samsung Galaxy S7 are 2 of the most talked-about smartphones lately. Both are expected flagships from famous smartphone producers loved everywhere around the world. We have heard many exciting rumors about them both, many of which are very much likely to come true. When put next to each other, let’s read on to see what Asus Zenfone 3 VS Samsung Galaxy S7 have to stand out from the crowd.

Samsung, on the other hand, is usually more focused on their smartphone cameras and design rather than processor and inner specs. However, this Galaxy S7 is catching flows of attention on its … processor: Samsung-made Exynos 8890. The chip set is said to be on of the most powerful ever, fighting against Snapdragon 820 by Qualcomm and Kirin 950 from Huawei. 

One thing we find in common between Asus Zenfone 3 VS Samsung Galaxy S7 is that, both smartphones will surely be equipped with a combination of very favorable features. You can start expecting 4K display, 23MP camera (or more, since Samsung is really negotiating with Sony to buy their beautiful IMX 300 sensor), a huge battery with fast charge..

But neither of the companies have said any further, either about how their upcoming beasts will look like, or how much they are about to cost.

Snapdragon 820, Qualcomm’s next chip set for premium smartphone flagships 2016, which we have talked a lot about, has just been officially unveiled by the company. The long-awaited smartphone processor features X12 LTE support, an upgraded Adreno 530 GPU and much more to be explored.

Snapdragon 820 – most powerful smartphone chipset for 2016?

Despite mixed reviews and some reported problem (like overheating), the previous Snapdragon 810 by Qualcomm is no doubt one of the most powerful smartphone processors in the entire market nowadays, chosen by many big producers to power their high-end smartphones. The Snapdragon 810 is a perfectly capable CPU that shows wonderful performance. Now, let’s read on to see what its successor has to offer.

In terms of mobile connectivity, the Snapdragon 820 supports LTE Cat. 12 with provide download speeds of up to 600 Mbps. At the same time, the chip also support LTE Cat.13 with 150 Mbps speed.  X12 LTE is also supported with this Snapdragon 820, which is believed to make peak download speed 33% faster, and peak upload speeds 3 times faster than the X10 LTE found in Snapdragon 810.

If you want to know more about the technical details, we found on Android Authority a very helpful specs comparison table. Take a look

Snapdragon 820 – first smartphone processor with LTE-U

Let’s go into a bit more technical. With the Snapdragon 820, high end smartphones will access Wi-Fi with 2 – 3 times faster than the older versions, by supporting both 802.11ad and 802.11ca MU-MIMO. This makes the chip the very first commercial mobile processor to take advantage of LTE-U, allowing it to access LTE connections in both licensed and unlicensed spectrum. In other (simpler) words: this makes the connection speeds on your phone faster than other devices when you are in crowded areas where many people use the same wifi. Cool, isn’t it?

Snapdragon 820 – and the first smartphones

Even a while ago, when we yet to have official Snapdragon 820 specs yet, many smartphone OEMs had already signed up for their future devices to be one of the first smartphones with Snapdragon 820. Back then, we have heard about more than 30 units, the list must be longer now. Some of them include Samsung Galaxy S7, Xiaomi Mi5, Sony Xperia Z5 Plus, a yet-to-name LeTV smartphone and more.

Snapdragon 820 – more power, more choices

2016 is approaching near. With the developing speed of our smartphone market, we can pretty much expect anything to come. The powerful Snapdragon 820 is an example. Let’s wait a couple of months and see which will be the first beast to show up with this processor!

Taking selfies has been a popular trend in the world nowadays. Therefore, having a smartphone equipped with the best front camera is getting more important. Especially, if you want to take selfies in low-light conditions, a LED flash on the front surface is a must-have. So, here are the very best Android smartphones with this cool feature you can find on the shelves easily:

Top Selfie smartphones with LED Flash

1. Huawei Honor 7 Specs

2. Huawei Honor 7i Specs

3. HTC Desire Eye Specs

4. Sony Xperia C5 Ultra Specs

5. ASUS ZenFone Selfie Specs

6. Samsung Galaxy J7 Specs

Top Selfie smartphones with LED Flash for 2016

Well, those are the best smartphones we found available on the shelves and they all come with LED flashes on the front surfaces. So, your selfies would be so beautiful! 

In the near future, 4K display is predicted to become more common than now. We have already had many devices that can shoot 4K videos, so the displays on the phones should be improved to be able to replicate those videos perfectly. As a result, today, we would like introduce some of the pioneers in the 4K display smartphone trend to you!

1. Sony Xperia Z5 Premium

This is a member of the Sony Xperia Z5 series in this half of 2015. Specially, Z5 Premium is equipped with a very high display resolution, making it the world’s first 4K handset. No doubt that the Japanese technology giant has created a super strong competitor.

Spec-wise, Sony Xperia Z5 Premium uses a 5.5-inch 4K IPS LCD screen with 806 PPI, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 chip, 3GB RAM paired with 32GB of expandable storage, a fingerprint sensor built in the home button and Android 5.1 Lollipop OS. Also, it comes with a 3,430mAh battery and a combo of a normal 5MP front plus a wonderful 23MP rear camera (which supports recording 4K videos with 12,800 ISO, autofocus speed of 0.03s and 5X zoom without reducing much the pic’s quality).

2. Vivo Xplay 5S

Besides Sony, recently we have potted 2 leaked images on the internet which are said to be the pictures of Vivo XPlay 5S, successor to Vivo XPlay 3S. Some expected Vivo XPlay 5S specs have also been revealed such as a Snapdragon 820 chip, a premium 4K display, a fingerprint sensor, a whooping 21MP main and an appealing 12MP secondary shooter which is absolutely perfect for those who love taking selfies. Although there was no word made for the Vivo Xplay 5S’s RAM capacity, we anticipate it would go with 6GB RAM. So, Sony Xperia Z5 Premium should be more careful when competing with this Chinese smartphone.

3. ZTE Star 3

Just a few months ago, some reports mentioned that there would be a ZTE product called ZTE Star 3. It would come with a 5.5-inch 2,160 x 3,840 pixels screen, giving the display a pixel density of 808 PPI. Also note that the bezel was listed at a mere 0.55mm, nearly edge-to-edge. However, after that, we have not heard anything related to ZTE Star 3 specs, price as well as launch date. So, we assume they are still working on it. Let’s wait and see!

4. Sharp smartphone

According to some sources, Sharp is about to join the 4K smartphone battle with a device boasting a 5.5-inch IGZO touchscreen with a massive 3,840 x 2,160 pixel resolution. Although the official information has not been made by Sharp yet, we are excited about the leaked detail of the machine’s display. It will probably have 806 PPI and include low energy consumption, sharp images, and borderless designs.

In conclusion, we hope that there would be more handsets to appear in this list next year. But before the time comes, what do you think about the above smartphones? Share with us your opinions!

Lenovo Vibe X3 and Asus Zenfone Selfie are two of the latest camera smartphones launched to our market lately. Both devices are perfectly fit into the sub PHP 15K price category. What do they look like when put next to each other?

Let’s take a look, here is our Lenovo Vibe X3 VS Asus Zenfone Selfie comparison.

1. Lenovo Vibe X3 VS Asus Zenfone Selfie: rear or front?

Lenovo Vibe X3 is said to pack a whooping 21MP rear camera, which is found mostly in higher-end flagships. However, the front shooter on this device is not very outstanding, featuring an 8MP sensor.

Meanwhile, Asus Zenfone Selfie, as the name suggests, is mostly focused on its front camera. The device sports 13MP on both sides. If you are an Asus user, you may know that the selfie camera on their smartphones carries a very unique and signature filter.

Considering a similar price tag, between 13MP for best selfie quality and 21MP for beautiful background pictures, which would you personally buy?

2. Lenovo Vibe X3 VS Asus Zenfone Selfie: Chinese warrior VS Taiwanese Giant

Lenovo Vibe X3 is a Chinese-made device, carrying a good reputation from the company. Lenovo is known for smartphone with big battery, strong cores and specs, but somehow not super long-lasting.

At the same time, Asus Zenfone Selfie is from the world-famous Taiwanese OEM, known and loved by their high quality and longevity of the products. Asus users are also satisfied with the smartphones’ powerful processor, usually powered by big RAM and Intel cores.

3. Lenovo Vibe X3 VS Asus Zenfone Selfie: release date and price

Lenovo Vibe X3 has been introduced recently as the upcoming camera flagship by Lenovo in early 2016. Although for now we don’t know the official Lenovo Vibe X3 Price yet, it has been said to be around USD 200 at the initial price in China. This means after arrival, Lenovo Vibe X3 Price in Philippines and other countries will be slightly higher than in its homeland. But still, it will be in the sub PHP 15K budget.

Asus Zenfone Selfie, on the other hand, was launched earlier this year, in Q3 2015, and already available in many Asian markets, including the Philippines. This make both handsets fit perfectly in the sub PHP 15K market.

4. Lenovo Vibe X3 VS Asus Zenfone Selfie specs

The Asus Zenfone Selfie specs we have here are all official. However, some of the Lenovo Vibe X3 specs are still waiting for further confirm.

Do you still remember the Priv – aka BlackBerry’s first Android smartphone with the initial codename “BlackBerry Venice”. Despite mixed response and feed backs from users ever since the Priv was launched, it seems like BlackBerry is working on a second Android smartphone: the BlackBerry Vienna.

BlackBerry Vienna: 2nd Android smartphone with QWERTY keyboard

The BlackBerry Vienna’s first image was leaked recently, showing the signature QWERTY keyboard, looking quite similar to that of BlackBerry Passport or other common BlackBerry signature smartphones.

From what we see for now in the leaking images, BlackBerry Vienna seems to belong to the lower-end category, since it doesn’t feature the premium look like that of BlackBerry Venice, (or Priv). The rear bezels around BlackBerry Vienna are quite thick and we can easily spot 3 Android button just above the QWERTY keyboard. Rear and front cameras are very visible also.

Since this is just the very first leaks, I bet you also guess BlackBerry has no word announced about the Vienna for now. The company has not either confirmed the information, or revealed any further about the BlackBerry Vienna price and release date so we can have some expectation. But like we mentioned above, the BlackBerry Vienna is very possibly cheaper than that of the high-end BlackBerry Venice.

BlackBerry Vienna: the death is not for now!

After BlackBerry Venice (Priv) price was unveiled, many users was not happy with the heavy tag compare to those specs the handset has to offer. Many even bitterly said that, the Priv will be the last device ever BlackBerry produced, and that we are about to see the death of this company. But it seems like the company is not ready to give up yet. If the BlackBerry Vienna turns out to be true an Android device (the smartphone OS everyone loves) with reasonable price for trendy specs, then I bet users everywhere will be more happy to welcome and support.

Stay tuned, we will update when we get any further information about BlackBerry Vienna.

Sony Xperia Z5 Premium is no doubt one of the super stars of 2015-2016 period. The smartphone features first-in-the-world 4K display, which have wowed and impressed many users.

The only concern we have heard so far is that, which such huge screen density, will the 4K display exhaust Xperia Z5 Premium battery. And it has been good having the convincing explanation from the company about how the device was designed to save power.

2. Best smartphone camera of all: Sony Xperia Z5

Sony Xperia Z5, beside the non-4K display, has very similar specs to the Z5 Premium. Both smartphone comes with IMX 300 23MP rear camera sensors, with super fast 0.03s auto focus. And a benchmark test has entittled Xperia Z5 camera as “the best smartphone camera ever”. Impressive, isn’t it?

One more interesting information you may like to hear is that, Samsung is negotiating with Sony in order to buy the IMX 300 sensor for their upcoming flagship Galaxy S7. We can’t be more excited to try them all!!

3. Biggest Xperia smartphone: Sony Xperia C5 Ultra

5. Craziest Xperia smartphone: Sony Xperia M5

Sony Xperia M5 is a real crazy beast. First of all, it features 21.5MP camera on the back, and 13MP on the front. This makes Xperia M5 rear camera bigger than the selfie-centric Xperia C5 Dual, and Xperia M5 front camera better than the premium Xperia Z5.

Not only that, the Xperia M5 is powered by strong Helio X10 chip set, new waterproof technology IP65/IP68, a decent 3GB RAM and beautiful 4K video. If you are not impressed yet, the M5 is also the first Xperia smartphone to have unique and classy gold color option.

It would be tough if I have to choose the best Xperia smartphone for selfie. As you may know already, any smartphone made by Sony can easily come with a super nice selfie camera. Trust me, even that 2.0MP on the Xperia Z2 takes very surprising shots.

Therefore, to me, all of the above Xperia smartphones can be your perfect choice of top selfie devices, since none of them pack less than 5MP front sensor.

5. OnePlus X: Beautiful, powerful and affordable

This is a mid-range phone made by OnePlus. Despite not being a flagship, OnePlus X specs are so strong compared to many other devices in its kind and even the cost is pretty reasonable, $249 (RM1,070) to be specific. Spec-wise, it is equipped with a 5.0-inch Full HD Active Matrix OLED display, a 2,525mAh battery, a 2.3GHz Snapdragon 801 processor, 3GB of RAM and 16GB ROM.

Sony would be proud of being the first manufacturer in the world to produce a flagship smartphone like Sony Xperia Z5 Premium with up to 4K display and super high 806 PPI. Sony Xperia Z5 Premium uses a 5.5-inch IPS LCD screen. However, the problem making people concern about the handset is quite similar to the prob of TV 4K. It is the fact of lacking original 4K contents, which will force the machine to upscale the images and videos to 4K and normally their qualities will not be as good as the original’s. Anyhow, a Z5 Premium is promising to bring you great experience with the display.

10. Marshall London: Sound is a priority

Yes, we can easily recognize that this phone is designed to look like amplifiers and headphones which Marshall is famous for.

Interestingly, you can find out that there is a wheel on one side of the phone to help control the volume.

11. LG V10: Special with a dual display

It looks pretty big due to the 5.7-inch Quad HD main and 2.1-inch secondary display on the front, but impressive! With the smaller screen, you can easily receive notifications popped up on it, quickly use some apps by clicking their shortcuts, control music, and check for calendar, events as well as your personal message. So convenient and helpful for working and playing, right?!

Well, those are the BEST 11 Android smartphones you can find on the mobile market now to make your life more comfortable. Each of them has its own special feature which will meet your demands. Then, have you made up your mind? Which one would you want to have most? Share with us!
