    Looks like Zenfone is becoming quite the talk of town. Found two passers by discussing phones from Asus on the bus last day.

    Well, I got a special press invite of the launch event of Zenfone in Delhi 😀

    Tested them, and I must say, they're really awesome. Specially the camera it's just superb considering the price point of the phone. Though I think Zenfone 6 is slightly over-priced considering the price of Zenfone4 and Zenfone5, but these phones looked promising to me.

    Even I'm looking to buy one. Tested them, they were really satisfactory, but now due to many phones coming up, I'm thinking to wait for this Diwali to get the best phone available at the best price.
