The ZenFone 7 Series comes packed with the incredibly innovative Flip Camera setup. As a result, you get to enjoy the same features, technology and benefits on both the rear and front camera. Your photography and video experience will be up to the same level no matter whether you are in the selfie mode or back camera mode. The audio capturing results for the ZenFone 7 is also amazing thanks to the triple microphone setup that works perfectly with the cutting edge OZO Audio technology. 

The ZenFone 7 utilises Audio 3D, Audio Focus, Audio Zoom and Audio Windscreen, to deliver an unparalleled sound experience to users. Audio Focus does the amazing work of phasing out or suppressing noises which are distracting from the crowded snoicscapes so that the only focus is on the most important audio. Audio 3D is incredible on its own, enabling users to capture natural, spatial sound recordings in selective direction. Audio Zoom, as the name suggests, works in sync with the zoom of the camera. It shifts the focus and amplifies the sound which corresponds with the zoomed video. And the Audio Windscreen feature dramatically reduces wind distortion and bring clarity to audio in windy conditions. 

Jyri Huopaniemi, Head of Technology Licensing, Nokia Technologies, said: “We’re really excited to continue our collaboration with ASUS. OZO Audio has become the standard for audio capture across all ASUS smartphones launched this year, enhancing user experience in recording, and providing a sharper, true-to-life audio perspective of the memories they capture using their ASUS devices.”

Bryan Chang, general manager, smartphone business unit at ASUS, said: “Users really value audio quality, so we were pleased to work with Nokia to integrate their OZO Audio technology into the new ZenFone 7 Series. OZO Audio enhances the sound experience, ensuring that a finished audio product captures sound exactly as the user heard it when they recorded it.” 

Nokia Technologies is focused on licensing Nokia intellectual property, including patents, technologies and the Nokia brand, building on Nokia’s continued innovation and decades of R&D leadership in technologies used in virtually all connected devices used today. Nokia licenses its innovative OZO spatial audio and visual technologies to smartphone and camera manufacturers through its Technology Licensing business.
