What can you say about a Smartphone that has it all…perhaps
even, beyond all? The launch of the Zenfone2 at Gurgaon on the 23rd
May was a big hit! Thanks to Indiblogger and ASUS, most Indibloggers from Delhi
and some from as far as Pune and Mumbai had a fantastic time at the launch held
at Nautanki Mahal Gurgaon.
Starting with the delightful introduction by Mr. Jerry Shen CEO ASUS, and his heart-touching “Dhanyavads”, on to Mr.
Eric Shen Corporate Vice President and Mr. Peter Chang Regional Head ASUS
India, we got an in-depth knowledge of the latest launch from ASUS… the Zenfone2.The icing on
the cake however was Robert Jahns, the well-known digital artist and Instagram
master who regaled us with the umpteen possibilities of using the Zenfone2
Pixel Master camera. It was clear that
ASUS has managed to bring the incredible to Incredible India. The user friendly
features and its extreme technological excellence makes it a perfect blend of Yin and
Yang…..technological finesse and beauty…. be it because of its sleek looks,
amazing color palette, ranging from red to turquoise as well as the ombre range…simply
mind-blowing!

The launch was by Saif Ali Khan. He rose on to the stage on
a circular platform surrounded by a bevy of gown- clad beauties in true Nawabi
style, to launch this stupendous phone. Famed Bollywood photographer Daboo
Ratnani too dropped some pearls about the photographing abilities of the phone.
The foot-tapping
numbers by Aditi Singh Sharma of the “Suraj dooba hai yaron” and “Dhoom 3’ fame,
against a backdrop of astounding visuals was completely mesmerizing.

There was palpable excitement in the air; the energy of the
young Indibloggers was evident and heightened by the vivacious anchor Anushka
Dandekar whose invitation to all to
come on to the stage for selfies with Saif Ali Khan almost resulted chaos,
quite adeptly prevented by Anoop.
Two lucky winners got a Zenfone2 each for their prompt
answers, leaving the rest regretting why they hadn’t answered. There was almost
a catfight between two Indibloggers on
how many times each had met/ interviewed celebrities…quite a sideshow for the
audience to look on at, bemusedly !Others were busy trying to trace the Troll in anticipation
of the Rs/-5000 - reward. Wonder who won it?
Some were dressed to kill. Others were dressed comfortably
for a day’s outing at Gurgaon’s Nautanki
Mahal. Some came with boyfriends (in buses which broke down again and again),
still others were daughter bloggers with mama bloggers or Mama Papa and
daughter bloggers/tweeters having a rollicking time together; few were observed
eating only ice-cream during the lunch at Culture Gully…hats off to their commitment
for attending a full-day event while on
fast.

Lots of contacts made
and networks widened. There were also face-to-face meetings with many whose
blogs had been admired online so far.Everyone had a fabulous time and clutching their ASUS goodie
bags full of T-Shirts and Sefie Sticks, left the venue smiling, looking forward
to another such meet soon.
