Asus Zenfone 2 ZE551ML price in Malaysia starts from RM599, and for that you get a 5.5-inch full HD IPS display running at 403 ppi, sharp enough for reading and video at this size. Under the hood there are two configurations: a 2GB RAM model on the Intel Atom Z3560 clocked at 1.8GHz, and a 4GB RAM version paired with the faster Z3580 at 2.3GHz. Storage options run from 16GB to 64GB, with microSD expansion up to 64GB if you need more room.

The rear camera is a 13MP unit with autofocus and dual-LED flash, backed by a 5MP front camera for selfies and video calls. Video tops out at 1080p30, standard for its era. A 3000mAh battery handles the power side, and it's built into a body just 10.9mm thick weighing 170g.

Connectivity covers dual SIM, LTE Cat4, NFC and Wi-Fi 802.11ac, so you're not short on basics. It ships with Android 5.0 Lollipop and comes in five colour options, from Osmium Black to Glamor Red, giving buyers some choice beyond just specs.
