Hopping into the selfie-oriented market as promised earlier this year, ASUS has announced the new ZenFone Selfie smartphone for the consumer ready for a picture of themselves. The main contrast between the ZenFone Selfie and a “normal” smartphone like the ZenFone 2 is the upgraded front-facing camera. In this case, ASUS has matched the 13 MP rear-facing camera with a 13 MP front-facing camera that comes with the same dual-tone flash as well. The rear-facing camera does get laser auto-focus, but the front-facing camera gets a wider 88-degree field of view.
As far as smartphone specs go, the ZenFone Selfie comes equipped with a 5.5-inch 1080p LCD screen covered with Gorilla Glass 4 and a Snapdragon 615 processor. Like LG and ASUS’s own ZenFone 2, the ZenFone Selfie comes with volume rockers located on the back of the device and the phone has a slightly curved shape to help users grip it better.
The ZenFone Selfie also comes with an optional Swing attachment. This can be used to extend your reach a tiny bit instead of going full-bore with a selfie-stick. The Swing can also double as a kickstand to hold the device in an upright position.
ASUS has not yet announced a release date, market availability or pricing details.
