It's all about pricing with the Zenfone 2. For a price-tag of 20k, this phone would be a really good buy. The performance is what you buy this phone for and irrespective of the flaws in the design, it's a minor mistep for an affordable flagship. There's a lot going for the Zenfone 2 and it would make for a good buy. It's no ordinary Zenfone and while you do compromise a bit on the battery and a lot on the camera, Asus can justify that with the right pricing. If you're looking for good performance in an affordable smartphone, then this will be one of the phones to go for. If you want a very good camera, then the OnePlus One and Xiaomi Mi4 should take precedence..
