The ZenBook 3, Transformer 3, and ZenFone 3 finally arrives in the country...it's the power of Z3N.
Laptops, tablets, and smartphones combining zen-like simplicity and power...it's the #Zenvolution by ASUS with its third wave of innovative new products. After weeks of anticipation and excitement, ASUS recently unveiled the complete line-up of the advanced ZenFone 3 Family, the sleek ZenBook 3 and the versatile Transformer 3 at the official Philippine launch at Sofitel Philippine Plaza last August 14, 2016. Here's a cool peek at the #Zenvolution...
Gracefully elegant yet modern and contemporary, the look and feel of the new ASUS ZenFone 3, ZenBook 3, and Transformer 3 combine functionality and power to help you stay connected, just what you need for your mobile lifestyle. As a food and travel blogger, it's exactly what you need to get the job done. And look good too. 
I've been a fan of the previous ASUS ZenFone2 Laser, but ASUS Global CEO Jerry Shen promises a richer experience with the new ZenFone 3 (for more on the ZenFone2 Laser, see my earlier post, See What Others Can't See: The New ASUS ZenFone2 Laser 5.0), and I definitely felt it at the launch. 
I was impressed with the previous ZenFone2, and the ZenFone 3 takes it to an even higher level (check out my food photos taken with the previous model at #SeeWhatOthersCantSee: Food Tastings with my ASUS ZenFone2 Laser and outdoor shots at #SeeWhatOthersCantSee: Urban Landscapes).
ASUS Head of Mobile Marketing, Erik Hermanson, described the advanced features of the new ZenFone3 series, equipped with the latest and most modern tools for that ultimate mobile experience. With so much packed in the new ASUS ZenFone 3, the brand takes on the major players in the category, providing even more options. 
At the launch, the Brand Ambassadors for the new ASUS ZenFone 3 were also introduced, reflecting the creative and dynamic lifestyle of the brand.

Incredible is now. The Zenvolution experience begins with the new ASUS ZenBook 3, completely redesigned with an ultra-sleek 11.9mm chassis weighing a mere 910 grams. But don't let the thin profile and light weight fool you, the new ZenBook 3 is packed with some tech muscle too. Crafted from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy with the signature ZenBook spun-metal finish, the new ZenBook 3 delivers unprecedented performance with its Intel Core i7 Processor, 16GB of high-speed 2133MHz RAM, up to 1TB PCle 3.0 x4 ultra-fast SSD, a next-gen USB Type C Port, and a powerful quad-speaker system by Harman-Kardon. The brilliant 12.5-inch display has a wide 72% NTSC color gamut with an edge-to-edge covering of tough, scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla Glass 4. Built tough, packed with all the features you need, while looking good too. With an innovative cooling system with the world's thinnest fan at only 3mm, you can enjoy all these incredible features with no worries. But there's more. The new ZenBook 3 features a glass-covered precision touchpad for smooth and accurate input incorporated with palm rejection technology, Smart Gestures, and handwriting support for enhanced usability. A built-in fingerprint reader with Windows Hello support grants users an instant one-touch access allowing them to sign-in and unlock the ZenBook 3 quickly and securely even without having to type a password or PIN. Now how cool is that? Available in three colors, Royal Blue, Rose Gold, and Quartz Grey, stay connected in style with the new ASUS ZenBook 3.
Mobile portability and performance are combined in the functionally-designed and elegant ZenBook Flip...
...and the new ASUS Transformer 3. The innovative 2-in-1 PC combines unrivaled performance and convenient portability for the ultimate mobile device ideal for both work and play. Precision-crafted from aluminum, the Transformer 3 is only 6.9mm thin weighing just 695g, yet has incredible structural strength and durability.
The Transformer 3 has a brilliant 12.6-inch display with a 3K resolution of 2880 by 1920 and a 275ppi pixel density for pin-sharp, detailed images and a color gamut of 121% sRGB for vibrant colors. Powered by a seventh-generation Intel Core processor, this handy device has all the muscle you need, with up to 512GB SSD and 8GB RAM for the ultimate performance. Don't be fooled by the small and compact size, the Transformer 3 means serious business. And if you want even more muscle in a light package, there's the new Transformer 3 Pro. Versatile, reversible, flexible...incredible is now.
But it's the ZenFone 3 that had me curious. I've been satisfied with my ASUS ZenFone2 Laser, but I have to tell you, I was blown away with the ZenFone 3 line of smartphones. The ultimate expression of ASUS smartphone technology, the ZenFone 3 is a fusion of zen-like design simplicity with performance. ASUS is definitely elevating the ZenFone experience, and taking it all the way to take on the major players in the category.

The ZenFone 3 Deluxe comes with a 5.7-inch Super FHD AMOLED display with Tru2Life technology packed in a full-metal unibody with invisible antenna design for clean lines. And for serious smartphone photography enthusiasts, the ZenFone 3 Deluxe is equipped with the Pixelmaster 3.0 camera, with the Tri-Tech auto-focus system, color correction sensor, and 23-megapixels for that ultra-sharp snap.
