Asus Zenfone 2 Laser ZE550KL 3GB RAM

This variant of Asus Zenfone 2 Laser comes with a 5.5-inch HD IPS LCD that is protected by Corning’s Gorilla Glass 4. The other variants in the Zenfone Laser 2 series also come with a 6-inch display, but this specific variant with 5.5-inch display is widely popular.

The volume buttons on the Asus Zenfone 2 Laser, unlike the other mobile devices, are placed on the back of the device. According to Asus, the rear-mounted volume buttons are more convenient to use than the side mounted buttons.

The Asus Zenfone 2 Laser comes loaded with Android 5.0 Lollipop that has been given a new theme with Asus ZenUI. The ZenUI is known to be a very optimised and clean looking UI. However, Asus has planned to upgrade the device to Android 6.0 Marshmallow, but there is no information regarding when the Marshmallow update will be available.

The Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 615 processor is in charge for providing the processing power on the Asus Zenfone 2 Laser. This octa-core processor is mated to 3GB of RAM for seamless multitasking. The Adreno 405 GPU residing in the Snapdragon 615 processor is capable of providing decent graphics and gaming performance.

The camera on the Asus Zenfone 2 Laser is a 13-megapixel unit with laser-assisted autofocus system for fast and accurate focusing in any condition. There is also a dual-LED (dual tone) flash for lighting the environment during low-light conditions. The image quality from the camera is decent. However, there are plenty of shooting modes to aid the user while capturing images and recording videos. The autofocus selfie camera has a 5-megapixel resolution and a f/2.0 aperture.

The dual-SIM 4G LTE enabled Asus Zenfone 2 Laser also has Bluetooth v4.2, Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, GPS with A-GPS and GLONASS, FM Radio and a microUSB port. The exclusion of the Wi-Fi ac and infrared port is sorely missed.

The 3,000 mAh battery on the Asus Zenfone 2 laser will last much longer than the 6-inch screen size variant of the Asus Zenfone 2 Laser. Even though the back panel of the device is removable, the battery is of non removable type.
