Asus Zenfone 6


Hey Guys, Welcome back to Interesting Intelligence! Zenfone devices have been GARBAGE for years. They finally made a good one. Would you grab this for 500$?

Asus just announced their Zenfone 6 and before you close this window just because, I said the word  'Zenfone', I get it! They have been making bad phones for years. For the past 4 years, ever since Zenfone 2 to Zenfone 5, they just had good hardware with terrible software. Zenfone 6
changed all of that!
               They don't have any bloatware on this phone! When you look at the installed apps, They have only 2 inbuilt apps excluding the Google ones which makes the phone super-clean. I think they finally made a phone suitable for this 500$ competitive market. I think they are aiming for 500$, it may not be their official price, but at least that's the price I am told.

For that money, you get hardware features that are really solid. You get a Snapdragon 855, 6 GB of RAM, there's 64 GB of storage which is expandable, a headphone jack, stereo speakers and a lot more. There's a Google Assistant button on the right side as well.


The battery is also quite big, it's a 5000 mAH battery. It doesn't support crazy fast charging, it goes up to 90 Watts, which is reasonably fast. This is a comfortable 2-day battery for the average users, on heavy usage, you will get around a day and a half.
This screen is an all-screen. It's a 92% screen to body ratio which makes the design aesthetic and unique. Now there's one thing that I don't like about the screen that is an LCD panel otherwise it is fine. It is noticeably an inferior screen. Its 1080p, bright and the size is great for my hand and also it is a flat screen which is again great.








If you've seen the presentation of this device, you'll realize that the camera is a flip camera. I have mixed feelings for that thing actually. The photographs seem on the level of OnePlus, but I feel that the processing is not ideal for my eyes. You may like it! The camera is cool and innovative as the phone is able to use the back camera as it's front camera also. The face unlocks and selfies get a bit slow though, due to the time taken in flipping the camera. You can also make the camera go up and down for different angles without actually moving the phone. You can get good wide angle selfies and an awesome panorama mode. These features are neat but not all that useful.


If you are looking at this phone, you are probably also looking at Pixel 3xl and OnePlus6T from last year. I think Zenfone 6 is offering something very unique so this is a pretty good option.

OnePlus 9 - You HAVE to settle

This is a review of the OnePlus 9 and its comparison to the OnePlus 9 Pro and 8 Pro. This blog also includes discussion related to the missing OIS in OnePlus. Hardware There is a lot to like about this phone. I love the fact that it has a flat-screen and this was going to be my preferred phone instead of the 9 Pro but that may have changed. So the speakers are as good as the 9 Pro ones. They are not as good as gaming phones but, they're good. There is a solid 7-8 hours of battery life. There is a wireless charger but, with less but, still enough power. The battery is much more consistent than the battery on 9 Pro because of the high refresh rate in the Pro version. The Problem So I was sure that the OnePlus 9 camera was going to as good as the 8 Pro if not better. But, for some reason, OnePlus decide to remove optical image stabilization. This may sound very small but, the difference is huge and every OnePlus phone has had it till this one. Which 730$ does not have OIS. I am really...

17' Razer Blade Pro 2019

 Hey Guys, Welcome back to Interesting Intelligence! This laptop is SO much better than the previous blade pro. The thermals are crazy good. I would say that it is their best gaming laptop with awesome thermal performance. This laptop is brand new from this year, It is completely redesigned. It is their most expensive, most powerful and the most big-screened gaming laptop and it's a nice looking unit. I like this laptop a lot, however, there are some things which I want you to know if you're interested in picking this thing up! 1) Hardware The build of this device is very similar to the build of the 15' this year. It's got the same kind of design, shape, the light-up snake logo up front. It is very much an updated Razer product. I highly recommend you for getting a case or skin it if you buy a black one because even with very safe handling this device sometimes has dents and they are very much visible on a black one.         This laptop is obviously big...

Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+

 Hey Guys, Welcome back to Interesting Intelligence! This is my review of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+. iPad's competitor? If you would have asked me some time before that "Which is the best tablet", I would have undoubtedly said "iPad Pro", but now we have competition! Samsung Galaxy S7+ is surely the best android tablet and a toe-to-toe competitor of the iPad. It is, in fact, the more practical choice for many people. The hardware specs on this thing are solid! There are two speakers on each side of the tablet and this thing is awesome for anything which has something to do with audio! Screen, Pen and Keyboard. S7+ has a 120Hz panel and because it has a high refresh rate, things look superfluid. I have said before that refresh rate should not be a major reason to buy a smartphone but it definitely is in tablets because of the electronic pen. The pen on this device is also up to the point. There are only 7 milliseconds of latency. The pen magnetically sticks on ...
