Asus ZenFone 2 Laser ZE550KL reviews by real users Asus ZenFone 2 Laser ZE550KL

This is the runner-up after Xiaomi Redmi Note 5. Of course, it lacks the fingerprint, lacks the FHD screen, 70%+ ratio and the latest Oreo, the Dual Cam, but it’s no goner. With Android 6.0.1, a fascinating design with a stylish volume button at the back, a cool glare effect on the front-bottom and a perfect gamut, you really can’t put it off. The camera is the real deal though. Apart from the laggy low-light mode reducing to 3MP and a Panosphere mode that doesn’t stitch well, you do get a camera that’s just superb at this price point. You can’t have a better camera than this bundled with such hardware other than Xiaomi Redmi Note 5. HDR, Auto and Manual are the modes that I almost always use, and they suffice. 16GB Internal, 3GB RAM, Snappy 615, 3000 mAh with 24+ hrs backup, 100GB of G-Drive free for 2-years – I think I am quite satisfied. The bloats are useful and can be disabled seamlessly. The audio btw is worse for such a phone, especially on external speakers.
