ASUS Zenfone 3S Max UI (User Interface) Review:-

The Zenfone 3S Max is loaded with the latest Android 7.0 Nougat and ZenUI 3.0 for added personalization which makes it’s user interface very easy and more awesome. The Zen UI 3.0 is somehow changed and improved for the Zenfone 3S max and it works well with the new Android 7.0 Nougat update which is the best part of this smartphone along with the battery.

Users can easily switch to the apps and use multi windows feature to use the apps, while some users don’t like the Zen UI 3.0 which removes pure the feel of the Android 7.0 Nougat
