hello, and welcome to tech bestthis is the zuk z2, it just arrived yesterday so this is a quick 1st impressions video,it has to be one of the best value phones you can get right now in early 2017. it’s a phone that you can pick up currentlyon sale for just $185 us dollars, there will be a link in the description below.
Android current version, now just incase you don’t know, zuk is ownedby lenovo who also own motorola, so this is made by a reputable company. im going to quickly show you why this phoneis such good value. 1st i will give you an idea of how it performs,then we will go over the specs and the construction.
in the antutu benchmark it scores 133000 points. if we check the rankings we can see it scoressimilar to the galaxy s7 edge with 134000 point and the iphone 6s with 133000, keepin mind the s7 edge and iphone 6s cost a lot more than $185. so if you need a fast phone, maybe you wantto play the latest 3d games, then this phone represents very good value. it will handle all current games and applicationswith ease. and just as a quick comparison here is anotherphone that costs about the same money as the zuk z2, it is powered by the helio p10 and4gigs or ram and it scores just 52000 points.
so going over the specs, it has a snapdragon820 with adreno 530 graphics, which is the same setup powering phones like the oneplus3, the htc 10, and the us version of the galaxy s7. it has 4gigs of ram, 64gigs of onboard storage,android 6 marshmallow, and it also has a massive 3500mah battery. on the back we have a 13mp camera whichhas a samsung isocell sensor, now the camera on the galaxy s7 is also an isocell, and inmy quick testing so far it does seem to be a solid performer. it also has very fast phase detect auto focus,it can also record in 4k, and thanks to that isocell sensor
it can even record slow motion video at upto960fps. the front camera is 8mp and im particularlyimpressed with its low light performance. below that is the 5†1080p screen and ahome button which also doubles as a finger print reader. on the bottom is the usb type c port whichsupports quick charge 3.0 and can charge to 80% in just 30mins. it has 2.5d glass front and back which zukclaims is gorilla glass 4. this is a glossy phone but it appears to havesome kind of anti oil coating as it doesn’t tend to get as smudged up as other glass phones.
the frame is metal, i like that all the portsare on the bottom, while all the buttons are on the right, leaving the top and left sidecompletely clutter free. the build quality is also very good. here you can insert two sims, so yes thisis a dual sim phone with lte connectivity. now one of the cons is that the phone does not havenfc which could be a deal breaker for some people and zuk’s zui interface is not great,but that is easy enough to change if you don’t like it. this phone though is all about value for money,giving you excellent hardware and performance for a cheap price.
this phone first came out only 6months agoin june 2016, and it can already be had on
sale for just $185 us dollars, it’s a bargain,there will be links in the description below, but the sale wont last forever, so be quickif you want to grab one. anyway if you have any questions, please leavea comment below. thanks for watching and subscribe for moretech best best tech videos.
