Smartphones have become an integral part of our life. Now many manufacturers produce worthy models, but not all of them fit into the framework of budget apparatuses. There are good phones at Huawei, Xiaomi and Meizu. However, they are not for domestic realities. However, users even acquire smartphones of highly dubious companies, which will be licked. And then they suffer, because the devices work out of the hands is bad. But there is one company that boasts inexpensive, high-quality and pleasant to use in our latitudes, devices. Called ASUS. It is well known in Russia and the CIS countries. And its budget about which we will understand a little later, once broke the records of all sales. Why is that? Let's deal with. Let's start with history.

A little about the company

Asus was founded in 1989 as a manufacturer of inexpensive components for the best global computer brands. Over time, a small subsidiary gained independence and achieved impressive success in the laptop market, personal computers and their components. The main products of Asus at that time were motherboards. They are also very popular in Russia and the CIS countries. Relatively recently the company began to produce smartphones. The arsenal of its mobile unit has both premium devices (with relevant performance and design) and fairly budget models. The latest devices include Zenfone Go ZB452KG, the reviews about which is rather ambiguous. Therefore, they need to be disassembled separately.

Despite the jokes of users that Asus's laptops are natural stoves (they really warmly warm), it did not affect the popularity of these devices. Exactly the same situation with smartphones. Although they cannot boast of productivity (budget models), but they greatly benefit from an unusual design, an extended functionality, corporate shell and prices. For example, ASUS Zenfone GO ZB452KG 8GB, user feedback about which is exceptionally positive (with rare exception), is characterized by a very unusual arrangement of the volume control buttons. No manufacturer of mobile phones, even recognized masters, did not think so much. This is the attractiveness of smartphones from Asus. They simply do not look like any other devices. And this is very relevant in the age of "faceless" devices. So, we turn to the device itself and consider it design.

Appearance and design

ASUS Zenfone GO ZB452KG, reviews about which will be considered in detail a little later, unique. The smartphone has all distinctive features of a unique device. That is, externally is the usual "brick" of the format of the monoblock. But there is some raisin in it. It is not immediately possible to understand what is not so in the design of the device. But then an understanding comes: the device has a very interesting surface under the display at the bottom. It is made of ribbed plastic and looks rather unusual. As it should be, most of the front panel occupies a touch screen. There are two modifications of the device: with a 4.5-inch screen and with a 5.5-inch display. Which one is better - to say quite difficult. Both modifications are good. But the main feature of the design of the zenphon is not at all on the front panel. Although it is also very interesting.

But the rear panel of ASUS Zenfone Go ZB452KG 1A052EN, the reviews of which have a negative character, causes much more interest. First of all, it is interesting that it is removable. The manufacturer also provides a very extensive color palette for rear panels. There are very bright colors that are able to profitably emphasize the bright personality of the user. But salt is not all. And in the fact that lowering the camera and flash, which is light tap turns into a flashlight, are the volume control buttons. Very unexpected solution! This is definitely no one famous smartphone. Also, many owners mark the power button, which is in the upper end. This is also very convenient if you use the device in a car holder. Most smartphones this button is located on the side, which is completely uncomfortable.

Specifications

We now turn to the boring figures and technical features of ASUS Zenfone Go Zb452kg White, the feedback about which is fought by laudatory sides. Inside there is a rather powerful processor that allows the device to easily cope with all applications and the overwhelming majority of games. Frequency - 1.2 gigarets. The processor has four Cortex cores. The volume of installed RAM is 1 gigabyte. This is enough to ensure fast and smooth operation of the device. The amount of memory available to the user is 8 gigabytes. But the memory can be expanded at the MICROSD card. The device supports flash drives up to 128 gigabytes. The touch screen created by IPS technology. There are two modifications of this device: with a 4.5 inches display and 5.5 inches screen. Everyone can choose a device to taste.

The ASUS Zenfone Go ZB452KG phone, the reviews of the owners of which give all comprehensive information, has two cameras: frontal and basic. I must say that Asus was famous for his cameras in smartphones, but here he gave Mahu. It does not stand out interesting here. The main chamber has 5 megapixels, aperture 2.0, branded "enhancements" of images and a monophonic flash. She knows how to record video with a maximum resolution of 1280 by 720 points. The front camera has only 0.3 megapixel. From her, even selfie is not suitable anywhere. A feature of the smartphone is the simultaneous support for two Micro SIM SIM cards. The Google Android 5.1 platform is used as the operating system with the Zenui branded shell. I don't like some shell, but we must admit that it is reasonable and tasteful. LTE (4G) communication standard support. Yes, it is not needed in the budget smartphone. Nevertheless, the device is equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi and Bluetooth transmitters. But the battery could put more and more. Standard 2070 mAh is clearly not enough for such a device.

Who will suit this smartphone?

So, to whom maybe asus zenfone go zb452kg, customer reviews about which are ambiguous? The target audience of this apparatus is those people who want to get a completely modern gadget for reasonable money. However, "guy" and gamers will not clearly become a gift, for the power of the smartphone is clearly not enough. But those who use the device exclusively for work and some not particularly severe entertainment will be delighted. For a smartphone works clearly, stable and fast. For many, this is a decisive factor. Also, such a smartphone will be pleased with those who appreciate simplicity and elegance, because the device is a sample of style. Despite even their fairly cheap materials.

Another potential users of the smartphone from Asus are children. The device is worth such funny money that even if it is broken or drown it - it will not feel sorry. In addition, the gadget will perfectly cope with all the necessary tasks. Another device is suitable for those who often use several SIM cards. It is able to work at once at once with two. This means that the user does not have to carry several phones with them. It is very convenient. ASUS ZENFONE GO ZB452KG, reviews about which partly confirm all the above, universal apparatus. With all the consequences arising from here. It will suit the overwhelming majority of potential buyers.

Positive User Reviews of Smartphone Design

The appearance of the smartphone is what the manufacturer can be proud of. And indeed, the appearance of the device like almost everyone. Smartphone ASUS Zenfone Go ZB452KG, user reviews about which We will now consider, is positioned like a youth device. And it is true. It is bright, modern, has high-quality materials and satisfies all modern requirements. Many owners like removable removable panels. You can pick up the color for yourself. Also, some users note a rather unusual location of the volume control buttons. For most owners, this approach categorically dislike. And this is understandable, for the audience is not used to such radical solutions. But some find peculiar uniqueness. And they are absolutely right. This location of the buttons makes a smartphone unique and memorable.

Negative user feedback on smartphone design

However, not all such a design in the shower. Some snobs categorically do not like bright colors, an unusual location of the buttons and removable panels that the Asus Zenfone Go ZB452KG Black smartphone has a smartphone. Reviews from some comrades are unacted irony. True, people of the older generation are absolutely not needed. But such users, usually, youth smartphones are not purchased. However, negative design reviews are. And they all rest in an uncomfortable location of the volume buttons. But this is an excuse. However, some are not satisfied with the quality of materials used in the assembly of the gadget. But this is already a frank snobbery, for waiting for the aluminum of the 7000rd series or the glass case - pure madness from the budget device. Many of this do not understand. However, there is a constructive criticism. So, users are massively complaining about a flip back cover. This is a well-known problem. And while in Asus, it is not hurry to decide.

Positive user reviews about performance

Let's talk about the real performance of ASUS ZENFONE GO ZB452KG. Characteristics, reviews about which will be disassembled in this section, it is hoped that the device will show himself in all horses. And indeed, the overwhelming majority of the owners say that the performance of the smartphone is enough to fully work all applications. Also, the device loses the video files without problems and does not pass before playing audio in the format without loss of quality. But on this, the multimedia features of the gadget ends. Games are not available all. Many users were surprised by the fact that they could not even download some toys from the market. There is so written "The device does not support this application." Because of this, users turned out to be very upset. But they knew that they took. So it is not worth complaining about insufficient performance in games. This is still a smartphone for work. And for "innocent" entertainment (type of video and music).

Negative user feedback on smartphone performance

It was not without disposable comments about the performance of ASUS Zenfone GO ZB452KG 8GB Black. Reviews are not particularly joyful. Apparently, some caught defective instance (unfortunately, it is not uncommon). Some owners complain that after two days of use, the gadget tightly freezes. It helps only reboot. But sometimes even this radical way cannot help. Here the problem is not at the level of iron, but in the fact that the apparatus was factory marriage.

However, some owners complain (and quite reasonable) on the glitches of the camera application. This program problem is well known to engineers. They promise to fix it in the very near future along with the operating system update. Also, many categorically do not like the level of operation of the device with GPS satellites. And indeed, he is looking for them too long. Nevertheless, navigation works. Although with flaws. Let's not forget that we have a budget apparatus.

Should I buy this product from ASUS?

The answer to this question depends on how you plan to use the gadget. If solely for work, it is worth buying it. He will become an indispensable assistant. This is a reliable "workhorse". In addition, the device has an unusual and unique appearance, which will help stand out from the crowd. However, if you are an avid gamer, then it is better to refrain from buying this device. Even despite the very attractive price. Disappointments will be much, because this smartphone is not intended for games. Most of the modern masterpieces of the gaming industry will not even be installed on this phone.

If you are a lovers of the photo, then this device is also not for you. The camera in the smartphone is open no. Take a picture of some document or class schedule - it will completely come down. But not more. About the front chamber, in general, better silent. It lacks even to use Skype and other messengers. Not to mention Selfie. On the other hand, this is a good working gadget that freely "lives" one and a half days from one battery charge. For those who use the phone exclusively to work this circumstance is especially important. Modern flagships do not know how.

Finally

So, we disassemble Zenfone GO ZB452KG 8GB. Reviews of it are rather ambiguous. But positive from those who choose the device for work and some "non-hard" entertainment are dominated. Those who waited from the gadget of incredible productivity watered it with mud. And completely undeservedly. But the general opinion is such: it is a wonderful, high-quality, budgetary apparatus, designed for productive work and has a very attractive price. Knowing people will greatly understand all his charm and, undoubtedly buy it. The device is definitely worthy, and it is difficult to argue with it.

Colorful state employees are always happy, because on the one hand they are available, on the other - the number of available color solutions will always find buyers who prefer to stand out. In addition, color solutions are not so much: Among the proposals, the Zenfone Go line rushes. The company Asus decided not to violate the well-established tradition and presented quite budget telephone Asus Zenfone GO ZB452KG.

What's new in appearance

Those who are familiar with the previous samples of the fifteenth year, for example with the Asus Zenfone Go ZC451TG smartphone, immediately note that the navigation element is returned to the back panel - the navigation element - the volume swings. The rest of the design is familiar: In the middle, the device is thick, the back is slightly repeated, which users of other Asusov in arched execution are used to. But the edges are narrowed to 3.6 millimeters.

From the bottom under the display shows the branded pad under metallic, the power button is located in the center, on the upper face. By the way, many users will want to buy a smartphone not only because of the budget price tag: this is a small-time case when the diagonal is usual for past 4.5 inches. But permission is only 480x854 points. Returning to the color solutions, it is worth noting that their seven. Vivid tones look especially cheerful: scarlet and lemon.

Technical capabilities

Considering that we have an affordable device, you should not expect that it is enough from the sky of the star. For performance, the sniffragon is responsible for the 200th series, which can be considered basic, given the characteristics of expensive devices. For example, a competitor Lenovo A2010 received a mediath processor, so Asus Zenfone th zb452kg It looks preferable. RAM in the device is only 1 gigabyte, but considering the unproductive platform, which is enough for non-game everyday tasks, there should be no lack of RAM. The main memory is also a bit: only 8 gigabytes, but there is an expansion slot and 100 gigabytes of the cloud storage. The main chamber has received a five or eight-megapixel sensor, depending on the version, and surprisingly light optics with anoperative - 2.0. Whatever it was, this is a smartphone that has common wireless capabilities: even support for GLONASS and BDS is surprisingly announced.

Accelerometer (or G-SENSOR) - device position sensor in space. As the main function, the accelerometer is used to automatically change the image orientation on the display (vertical or horizontal). Also, G-Sensor is used as a pedometer, they can be controlled by various device functions by turning or shaking.
Gyroscope - Sensor measuring rotation angles with respect to the fixed coordinate system. Created to measure rotation angles in several planes at the same time. The gyroscope together with the accelerometer allows you to determine the position of the device in space with high accuracy. In devices using only accelerometers, measurement accuracy is lower, especially with rapid movement. Also the possibilities of the gyroscope can be used in modern games for mobile devices.
Light sensor - Sensor, thanks to which the optimal brightness and contrast values \u200b\u200bare set for this light level. The presence of the sensor allows you to increase the operating time of the device from the battery.
Proximity sensor - Sensor that determines when the device is close to the face during a conversation, turns off the backlight and blocks the screen, preventing accidental pressing. The presence of the sensor allows you to increase the operating time of the device from the battery.
Geomagnetic sensor - Sensor to determine the side of the light into which the device is directed. Tracks the orientation of the device in space relative to the magnetic poles of the Earth. Information obtained from the sensor is used in cartographic programs for locality orientation.
Atmospheric pressure sensor - Sensor for precise measurement of atmospheric pressure. It is part of the GPS system, allows you to determine the height above sea level and speed up the location definition.
Touch ID - Identification sensor for fingerprint.

Satellite navigation:

GPS. (Global Positioning System - Global Positioning System) - satellite navigation system, ensuring measurement of distance, time, speed and determining the location of objects anywhere in the Earth. The system is developed, implemented and operated by the US Department of Defense. The main principle of using the system is to determine the location by measuring distances to the object from points with known coordinates - satellites. The distance is calculated by the time of delaying the signal propagation from sending it to the satellite before receiving an antenna GPS receiver.
GLONASS (Global navigation satellite system) - Soviet and Russian satellite navigation system, developed by order of the USSR Ministry of Defense. The measurement principle is similar to the American GPS navigation system. GLONASS is designed for operational navigation and temporary support of users of ground, marine, air and space-based. The main difference from the GPS system is that GLONASS satellites in their orbital movement do not have resonance (synchronization) with the rotation of the Earth, which ensures greater stability.
