Next Generation hours Asus ZenWatch be Able to Work a Week without Recharging

Late last year, Asus has launched its first "smart" watch Asus ZenWatch, who had already recognized as one of the most beautiful wearable devices on the platform Android Wear. But in addition to an attractive design ZenWatch have no special features which would highlight the clock on the background of other gadgets. However, with the release of the second generation Asus ZenWatch this situation may change.

According to Asus chairman Johnny Shih (Jonney Shih), as quoted by journalists Focus Taiwan, the next generation of "smart" watch the Taiwanese manufacturer will receive a simplified processor and operating system, so the battery life Asus ZenWatch increase to seven days. And, despite this 'simplification', the clock will be able to make calls without having to sync with your smartphone.

According to John Shea on the simplification of the operating system clock make you think that Asus has decided to abandon the use of Android Wear in favor of a less functional solutions. But if it really will increase the work hours to one week, many users probably will agree to simplify the functional Asus ZenWatch 2, moreover, that the battery life of most of these gadgets on the market and no more than two days.

The downside is that before the announcement of the second generation Asus ZenWatch there is still a lot of time. And, according to sources, the presentation will take hours until the third quarter of this year. Today's generation is sold for $ 199, and we expect that the cost of Asus ZenWatch 2 will not exceed this figure.

Asus is in talks with Partners Xiaomi

Asus has plans to learn from the experience of doing business in China Xiaomi. The manufacturer has already started negotiations with partners.

Xiaomi success in the smartphone market has forced many companies to review their business strategies. So lower profits made Samsung said to reduce the range of its smartphones, despite the fact that Xiaomi has never tried to impress by great diversity, offering good functional unit for reasonable money. Now in her footsteps ready to go and the company Asus. At least, the manufacturer is in talks with several partners Xiaomi, such as Cheetah Mobile (his application Clean Master will soon be pre-set for all smartphones Asus), 1more Design.

Next year, Asus plans to implement the order of 12-16 million smartphones. In 2014, the company sold more than 8 million units. Considering that the last line of phones Zenfone look quite attractive and at the same time different democratic price, Asus plans for this year look quite feasible.

Second Generation of ASUS Zenfone Arrive At CES 2015

ASUS is one of those manufacturers that everyone would see many more possibilities that they show. At one time or another we have given the virtual title of "Android Apple" since gladly manufactures terminals and robust, something that stands out above the average of what we find in the Google ecosystem. Nevertheless, its distribution system leaves much to be desired and some models even have to wait months as the ASUS ZenFone who have come to Spain almost nine months after the operation we saw in Barcelona. Now, when the current generation still smells new in our country the second is on the way. Of course, it will follow the path of the current although we see presented in Las Vegas during CES 2015 in early January.

It seems that again ZenFone have three models: a four, a five and a six inch and have a heart forged in the fires of Intel ASUS although respnsables allowed to be looking for a new partner, or perhaps MediaTek Samsung its Exynos, to lower production costs. Yes, come directly to Android 5.0 Lollipop and will also have LTE connectivity, almost indispensable in the new releases for some months but not as common as it might seem.

We said that the distribution would be similar and the new ASUS ZenFone will debut in China with large local operators such as China Telecom and China Mobile. Apparently the international models will be different from those sold in China and there is no official list of countries to which they arrive although we assume that Europe will be among its main objectives. The problem is, as always, the time it takes to land. We know that in Latin America ASUS is a highly valued brand but its distribution is erratic, something that must improve if they want to reach the figure of 16 million units sold, a not short challenge for a line of smartphones that has now even a year old.
