With the game changing for below 10k smartphones in India, Asus made a quite significant impact with the Zenfone 5 in this segment. There are Zenfone 4 in the sub 7k segment and Zenfone 6 in the above 15k segment but the Zenfone 5 is perfectly suited for...

Large, decent quality display punches well above its weight. Good performance from the Intel components. Fantastic value for a 5inch, dualSIM handset.
Mediocre camera in most conditions. Subpar battery life. Minor issues with the stockstandard smartphone design.
Many of the aspects of the Zenfone 5’s software are identical to what was seen on the Asus MeMO Pad 7 , just scaled down for the smaller display. That’s because both devices use Asus’ ZenUI atop Android, although the Zenfone 5 is still stuck on Android 4....
Stylish looks, Smooth performance, Lovely display, Featureloaded and capable snapper, Freshlooking UI with tons of useful features, Host of handy apps
The design's mainstay, the concentric circle pattern, is prone to scratches, Average battery life
The 8GB variant of the Zenfone 5 will be yours for Rs 9,999, while you can opt for the 16GB version if you're willing to shell out Rs 12,999. At this cost, it's a worthy alternative to the Moto G (review), which has so far been ruling the roost in this pr...

7.0 The Zenfone 5 has a lot of great qualities from hardware to software but the laggy performance will be hard to overcome. So unless ASUS addresses it with a software update, I would hold off on making a purchase for now....

Great looking, Beautiful display
Not top internals, Looks like a competitor
Asus has made an incredibly beautiful looking device here and if the pricing is right, it could be a flagship competitor to watch out for. That said, it does look like one particular phone already on the market...

Abstract: Asus is a leader manufacturer of hardware for desktop devices (PCs, monoblocks, etc.), but also it produces its own smartphones. However, the company haven't released any interesting phones yet. Why? First, because Asus uses very difficult names for its p...
