Lenovo has finally announced the third member of the Moto Z family — Moto Z Play. Unlike the Moto Z and Moto Z Force, the new Moto Z Play has mid-range specs. Good news is that it’s still compatible with the MotoMods accessories.

The device has a 5.5-inch full HD AMOLED display and is powered by a Snapdragon 625 chipset. It has 3GB of RAM and 32GB of expandable storage. A 16MP rear shooter with laser AF is present and also a 5MP wide-angle selfie camera with its own LED flash in the front. The Z Play has a beefy 3510mAh battery with a claimed battery life of “50 hours”. It runs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow out of the box.

The Moto Z Play has a glass back which is a different design take from its siblings. Another different about the Z Play is the inclusion of a 3.5mm headset jack. So, there’s no need to worry about adaptors.

ASUS ZenScreen is a 15.6-inch monitor for people on-the-go

Daniel Morial

ASUS has been dropping a number of consumer products under their Zen line of devices. The latest to join the bunch is a 15.6-inch monitor that will please those who are in need of popping out a display whenever they need it.

The ASUS ZenScreen is the “world’s lightest and slimmest full HD portable monitor” as the company claims due to its 8mm waistline and less than two pounds of heft. It utilizes a USB Type-C port for transmitting power and video to the display.

The display has a thin bezel of just 6.5mm making it ideal as a second monitor for your laptop or anywhere you need it. It comes with a foldable smart case which also acts as a stand — vertically or horizontally. You can also practically use a pen through the hole below the display to make the screen stand.

No exact release date yet but ASUS has already stated the ZenScreen to be priced at 269 Euro or approximately Php8,900.
