Possible Zenfone 2 competitors :

We see two tough competitors of Zenfone 2: OnePlus One & Xiaomi Mi4i. But OnePlus One has some very positive points if we compare with Zenfone 2. OnePlus One has CMOS sensor and it can record 4K videos, but Zenfone 2 can’t do that. In terms of RAM, OnePlus One is just a step behind Zenfone 2 with 3GB of RAM. In terms of clock speed, OnePlus One is slighly better than Zenfone 2, but it lacks expandable storage. However, Mi4i is another phone which can compete with Zenfone 2. Mi4i has a vivid display with the highest PPI density at 441, among the three phones. OnePlus One has 401ppi and Zenfone 2 is just a little higher in that case at 403ppi. In terms of battery backup, the Mi4i has the highest rating at 3120 mAh, OnePlus One at 3100 mAh and Zenfone 2 has a 3100 mAh battery, though fast charging is something which may force users to go for Zenfone 2 instead of the other phones.

Pricing :

Zenfone 2, OnePlus One and Mi4i all are fairly priced, and if we take a look at their highest variants, Zenfone 2 is the best value for money, as it is available for just Rs. 22,999 in India, but hold one, we have another deal for you.
