Comparisons Featuring Asus Pegasus
Short Review
- The Asus Pegasus features a compact design with dimensions of 146 x 73 x 9.9 mm and a weight of 140g, available in black, white, red, and gold.
- Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 294 ppi, but lacks HDR support.
- Powered by a Mediatek MT6732 chipset and a quad-core 1.5 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, it provides adequate performance for everyday tasks, supported by 2GB of RAM.
- The device includes an 8 MP rear camera with autofocus and a 5 MP front camera for selfies, although it does not feature optical image stabilization.
- The battery capacity is 2500 mAh, with no fast charging or wireless charging options available.
- Running on Android 4.4 (KitKat), the software experience may feel dated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The Pegasus lacks stereo speakers but includes a headphone jack for audio output.
- Overall, the device offers basic functionality with a focus on essential features rather than advanced technology.
- Its build quality and design are suitable for casual users seeking a straightforward smartphone experience.
