Hello friends! If you’ve read my Yureka Heating Problem Solution post then you must be aware that I’ve been using Asus Zenfone 5 from many months. One special thing that I would like to mention here about any Zenfone is its touch experience. What a great one! You won’t find such ‘touching experience’ in any other android device in this price range. It has record-breaking response time of just about 60ms and many more features like this one. But here we will talk about the Asus ZenMeetUp 2015 which was Asus Zenfone meet arranged specially for bloggers on 9’th August 2015 at Le Meridian, Pune.
Me and my other blogger friends: Chaitanya Ambardekar, Saurabh Patil, Nikhil Bhutkar got invitations for the meet one week before. All of us were super excited about the meet and to experience all new Asus Zenfones. Finally the day arrived and meet started.

After announcement, Mr. Chang and Mr. Charles Liu demonstrated the camera quality and other features of Zenfones. Zenfone 2 Laser and Selfie have Corning Gorilla Glass 4 protection which makes them much tougher. For demonstration purpose, he handled us knife and told us to scratch the glass. But later, we came to know that its really hard to scratch or cut. If you are a college student who want tough, rigid phone, then you should definitely consider The new Zenfones. One thing that I remember from the meet which Mr. Peter Chang said that ‘India is very huge market and we are here to make a change’. Giving quality devices within budget was a challenge. Asus accepted it and they have done pretty good job here.
India is selfie crazed nation. Here, everyone wants to take selfies. Everyone wants more likes on Facebook, Instagam, more thumbs ups for their WhatsApp profile pics 😉 Asus caught that point and introduced Asus Zenfone Selfie. The Android device which is designed especially for Selfies. It features rear button which really helps to take awesome selfies. Along with 88 degree wide angle lens and front and rear LED Flash, it also features selfie panorama mode so that you don’t have to miss any smile.
After announcing and demonstrating the features, Asus planned awesome fun activities for us. They told us to make short drama ad to sell new Zenfones. The groups were very creative and had awesome ideas for selling. The second activity was best selifie where every group has to take selfie and best ones would get prize. I got second prize here.

The winner of this selfie activity shared few tips for taking good selfies: Say ‘Kishmish’ to get perfect smile. Say ‘Kajoooo’ for perfect pout. 😀 Also hold your phone above to get good angle.
The winners got the Asus accessories and Flipkart vouchers worth Rs. 1000. Then Mr. Chang introduced us Zentalk forum where Zenfans in all around the world can gather and discuss about the new products, features, help each others. Asus support team will always be active to help Zenfone users personally on Zentalk. Launching and maintaining forum like this is really good move by Asus.
All the devices were available for hands on after the meet including the accessories like Zenpower (Powerbank), Lolliflash (Portable LED Flash plugs in 3.5mm audio jack of your phone), ZenEar (Headphones). We also met Mr. Peter Chang personally after the meet and discussed few more things on Zenfones. There were also few app developers in the meet who gave feedback and suggestion to Asus staff. The meet ended with awesome snacks. Thank you Asus for arranging such awesome meet. Wish you best of luck!
