New friends of ASUS – Murad and Natalia Osmann, the creators of the famous photo-series “Follow Me” #Followmeto decided to try new products. As part of a joint project with ASUS, these renowned travelers set off in search of adventure to the faraway land of volcanoes – the mysterious and beautiful Kamchatka, and at the same time tested ASUS’ new products in the harshest natural conditions. So ASUS ZenBook 3 UX390 notebook and ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE552KL smartphone helped them on this exciting journey.

Phones & Connectivity

Murad and Natalia Osmann captivated the world with pictures in which the girl leads her beloved, the photographer, to the most beautiful corners of our planet. So it’s no surprise they chose ASUS for their partnership, because when you’re traveling, a product that combines great features with an innovative, stylish design is a must-have.

“In Kamchatka Peninsula communication with the outside world is especially important, although it’s not available everywhere. That’s why you can’t do without the most powerful gadgets in the trip,” the guys say.

A land, shrouded in mystery and incredible stories, where you can easily hear the heartbeat of nature and feel the breath of life, where ancient volcanoes meet the vast Pacific Ocean – that’s Kamchatka. During their week on the peninsula, Murad and Natalia took three full-fledged routes and managed to experience all the elements of this amazing region.

They traveled all over the peninsula: they conquered volcanoes, looked into the hills, swam with seals and even surfed. And at the same time we tested the ASUS tech in these difficult and unbelievable conditions.


Murad Osmann, general producer of Hype Pro, author of the #FollowMeTo project“Kamchatka is the place where things become especially important that seem ordinary and uninteresting to an average city dweller. For example, the weather. In Kamchatka, the weather is totally unpredictable: you may take a raincoat, but the sun will be scorching all day long. Or the right comfortable shoes. Or connection with the outside world. This is especially important. The signal on the peninsula does not catch everywhere, and certainly the high-speed Internet – it is at all impossible luxury. But good tech is very important and it’s a must for any trip”.


Notebooks

ASUS ZenBook 3 UX390 laptop helped the guys to quickly create the route, transfer the photos onto the hard drive, do the initial color correction, refresh the memory of all the amazing facts, which had been collected about Kamchatka before the trip. It’s exceptionally thin, at just 11.9 mm, which is smaller than any paper guide, so you can simply load up an electronic guide like FollowMeTo’s itineraries and go on your adventures.

So, thanks to the fact that the guys checked with the offline maps uploaded to the laptop, they did not get lost on the slopes and did not lose a whole day on the road. Moreover, this laptop can in no way be called a “load”, because it weighs only 910 grams, and it does not need to take a lot of chargers, because in standalone mode it works up to 9 hours, and for that time you can even get on the Kliuchevskaya Sopka!

This notebook also has an interesting feature that will surely appeal to photographers – IPS screen with wide viewing angles and increased color saturation. It makes the photos you’ve just taken look more colorful without losing their naturalness.

ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE552KL is another device that is indispensable for guys on the road.


Natalia Osmann, co-author of #FollowMeTo, creator of the FollowMeTo travel website.Travel“It seems awful for modern people to leave the house without a cell phone. What to say about going on an amazing trip like a trip to Kamchatka without it,” says . – We couldn’t let it out of our hands, took photos of the magnificent views and, of course, took selfies – we couldn’t do without them! The more so, this model is just created for ideal self-portraits: you focus on your sweetheart, and at once the skin is automatically smoothed, the light becomes softer, and the colors contrast more. And a special bonus for girls – if desired you can have your eyes enlarged, your nose reduced and your face contours corrected – well, just some kind of photoplasty! And the external camera on the ZenFone 3 has 16 megapixels, so the pictures are of such high quality that they can be printed and hung on the wall immediately, or in our case, posted to Instagram directly from our base camp the only place where there was occasional Internet .”.


Computers and peripherals

And, of course, we can’t forget to mention the unique Zen design of the devices: perfectly smooth and streamlined body is a high-tech embodiment of the Zen philosophy. All landscapes in Kamchatka are subject to the same harmony, be it the volcanic hills, endless fields or the vastness of the Pacific Ocean. After all, there’s not as much in common between quality technology and the beauty of nature as it might seem at first glance.
