Aforek Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Hello, I know and use computers much more than smarphones, so I am not a specialist : last year, I bought an Asus Zenphone laser 2 for me ( about 5000 , enough, I don't work with it ) and now I want to buy an other Asus phone for my girlfriend she just uses ( very much ) her phone for Facebook ( of course ), speaking with friends , looking at news and she takes pictures and videos very much There are many Asus models, the one I have is too sophisticated , I think, for what she needs ; Lazada has many Easus phones and I don't know what to buy for her there are " Asus Zenfone Go , which difference with ZenFone 2 laser ? I want one which takes nice pictures ( the zenfone 2 laser is good , but does she needs the same than mine, her needs are basic ) ? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaseTheBass Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I would pick one that has good support in Thailand (Samsung, Oppo, Asus, Huawei, Motorola etc) and you will usually get the best deal from your phone provider.You should also consider things like a decent processor, screen, camera and how it looks and feels. We're with AIS and found their sales people to be really helpful, so that's where you might want to start?Sent from my SM-T815Y using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with williamgeorgeallen above. Give her the money you were going to spend and let her buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinneil Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 OP why are you asking that question here? If you buy her 1, no matter how good it is how expensive it is, it will be wrong. Tell her get out get your own, and then maybe i will pay for it if it is not to expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deli Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Do yourself a favor and avoid her having a smart phone, if you still wanna have conversation with her. If you can't avoid having her using a smart phone, make surge to install a hidden tracking app before giving the phone to her, that you can check on her. Just coz of experiences made...

Agree. Asus has no 'status' value, which is very important, especially for Thai girls / women. Let her buy, for a given budget, what she feels gives her the status she wants.

And then you really believe that you can set a given budget??? You seem to know a lot about phone status, but seem to lack the understanding of the relevance between budget and status.

JayBird Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Samsung or iPhone. Main reason is the wide choice of cases, which girls love. also very easy to repair. If you go Samsung you can install Samsung pay which also makes it easier to track spending. Go for the model with the right sized screen for her needs. Buy it somewhere you can get a good warranty for when the screen breaks. ideally with dual sim so she can take advantage of deals for talk and data.

Beats56 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 If she use FB get one with enough memory like 3 or 4 gb. FB is a memory hog. And get one with a decent battery and enough storage for all selfies and food pictures they like to take. Samsung would be my go to phone and the new S8 is water proof to certain degree. Yes a little expensive but it will pay off in the long run when she goes to Songkran and it gets wet.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aforek Posted June 20, 2017 Author Share Posted June 20, 2017 Finally, because she likes to taxe pictures with my Asus phone, I have bought to Lazada a more recent Asus phone, 3990 bahts, she is not a luxuous girl so she will be happy with it it can do many more things she needs, but it's ok, not too expensive and she will not borrow my phone anymore to take pictures outside ( I am always afraid that the phone disappears or is stolen ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooooh how I pity some people for their choice of GF's! Mine always ask me for advice re Laptops & Phones and are 100% happy with my choice! (By the way, I am an Apple hater!)

Some believe that when using the Internet, the phone makes little difference. WRONG! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stocky Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I'm mighty impressed with Huawei, I replaced my old Samsung Galaxy S2 with a Huawei P9 at the start of the year, and the wife switched a Samsung Galaxy Tab for the Huawei MediaPad T2 and now the old J7 for a GR5. They're all well speced and very well priced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
