Unlike smartphones, smartwatch or watches smart yet too many devotees are in Indonesia. His popularity cannot be denied are still inferior to analog watches are minimalistic in design trends in the market today.
However, in 2016 is the global vendors look does not want to lose the momentum to popularize smart watches in Indonesia. Proven vendors such as Samsung, Lenovo, Huawei and very confident vying launches pintarnya watches to Indonesia. See the opportunity this is, ASUS finally officially won its inaugural Smart Watches named ASUS ZenWatch 2 to Indonesia.
Charming box design
Retreat to 2014 when the Android-based smart wrist Wear design box, formally announced at that time was indeed more dominating than the round design that is only carried by the motto of the 360. In fact, the vendor of any Apple classmates join "talkative" with finally unveiled its inaugural smart watches, Apple Watch, which also brings the design box.
Over time the fact running watches smart design round like Moto 360 more attractive consumer interest. The success of the 360 this Motto encourages the other manufacturers eventually join the get carried away with the flow. Consequently in the market today the number of smart watches more rounded design than smart watches with box design.
However, the problem of the design of the watch box or round according to our return to the tastes of individual users. Everyone of course tastes vary. That certainly by retaining the first generation since the box design, ASUS ZenWatch 2 fixed our attention very early on in its life.
Talk design, aesthetic design on the conventional wristwatch of three main elements. Among them, the design of the case, crown, and the quality of the glass. The scenario is a little different on smart watches. In smart watches, this glass elements we can replace the screen and the crown can we refer to as the button.
Views from 3 design elements, design a box that carried the ASUS ZenWatch 2 according to us almost got a perfect score. At least the design appear very natural like a regular wristwatch. Unlike Apple Watch whose design the same box but it still looks a bit weird with the navigation keys rotate in addition to bodinya.
The aesthetic design of the ala "Zen" which still look elegant, minimalist from ASUS ZenWatch 2. The pull of the line stainless steel body design was somewhat rounded on all four sides as well as the sleek design add charm to this smart watches. When to use does it weigh also felt very light.
Crown or button next to bodinya is placed with the supremely fit, right in the middle with a very proportionate size. The button is also very convenient to pressed. There are 3 color choices bodi ASUS ZenWatch 2 is available. Among them, Gunmetal, Silver and Rose Gold.
Go into the display sector, ASUS ZenWatch 2 comes with a AMOLED touch screen. The options screen there are 2 sizes. 1.63 inches for hand man and 1.45 inches which is more suitable for women.
For this review we use the ASUS ZenWatch 2 screen measuring 1.63 inch. With a screen resolution of 320 x 320 pixels and pixel density levels reached 278 ppi, ought to be recognized the look of dilayarnya was clear and sharp. Under a scorching sun that beams with a maximum screen brightness level watches this clever can still be seen quite clearly. The response of the screen with the touch of a finger is also good.
As Android-based Wear watches another screen, the display can also be arranged. From the level of dark light, Theater mode which will make the screen died, until the screen mode is always a turn on to choose Customize to your needs.
One drawback in our opinion is simply a screen frame still looks a bit big. If only black screen frames designed a little thinner, its screen is of course will look increasingly more unsightly. As additional protection, its screen was reinforced with a layer of 2.5 D curved Corning Gorilla Glass 3 can minimize scratches or protect it in the event of collision. With ASUS ZenWatch IP67 certification 2 also hold dust and splashes of water.
Another element that makes the added interest is watches strap or wrist strap. Like Moto 360 2nd Gen, ASUS ZenWatch 2 carrying strap with spring bar-style quick release. Thus, you can change the strap of his wide 22 mm is very fast and easy.
ASUS ZenWatch 2 we review comes with a genuine leather strap light brown colored. Strapnya skin material is indeed not too special, but at least the material of her skin quite soft and not easily worn leather strap that is used as the motto of 360.

When we tried it, the sound of the speakernya is indeed relatively small especially if it is in a situation which is quite noisy. But of course, this feature is more effective if you are in a room that is not too large with a more silent. Like for example in the car while driving, this feature proved to be very helpful.
