Asus Zenfone 2 Laser 5.0″ Review (ZE500KL) – Firin’ Mah Lazer Autofocus for PHP 7,295

Interestingly, Asus’s entry level smartphone offerings have incorporated a laser autofocus module on their devices – despite the fact that their main line Zenfone 2 does not. Still that’s a nice feature when we’re talking about phones that are under PHP 10k – ’cause you rarely get anything else above the bare minimum specs most of the time. Anyway, today we’re talking about the Asus Zenfone 2 Laser 5.0″, or the ZE500KL to be exact. This is the smallest current variant of the Laser series and is priced at PHP 7,295, separating it from it’s bigger brother (ZE550KL) and larger battery cousin (Zenfone Max) which cost PHP 7,995 and PHP 8,495 respectively. So is getting this version the best way to spend your money or would it be better to invest in the higher-spec’d variants? Well, you can watch our video review here to find out!
