I never expected ASUS to came up stuff like Z801, come on guys think ASUS making phones, not just any phone extremely cool phone like Z801. Asus have announced the new Asus Z801, a super cool looking mobile phone with chess-board styled phone keys and Sapphire Quartz mirrored surface. No matter how old style is the model name is, it looks glorious, and comes with 2 megapixel camera, 260k color QVGA screen, MP3 player, tri-band connectivity, A2DP, and, er, “wisdom voice control” (at least, that’s what the translation tells me!) Presumably only the wise can control a phone as good looking as this!

Adding to the sense of coolness is the classic analogue watch display on the phone’s front(well we have seen that in Samsung and Erickson phone before). Detracting from it, however, is a Karaoke feature! Speak the lyrics to a song as it plays, and the Z801will not only record them, it’ll interpret what you say and display the words back to you as you play your tune, letting you sing along in perfect harmony. Must be what it means by ‘wisdom voice control’ - if so, it’s a new definition of the term ‘wisdom’! The Z801 comes with 2 megapixel camera with a resolution of 1600 × 1200 pixels, white balance and the usual camera features, plus video camera. It also comes with a Dictaphone function, and support for QR Code (below, left), which is a mobile-specific bar code that lets you buy things through your mobile phone.
