ASUS Zenfone Selfie
From the name itself, this smartphone is meant for selfies. This smartphone got a 13-Megapixel Rear Camera with Dual-LED flash and Laser Auto-focus but not just that, the front is also a 13-Megapixel camera with Dual-LED flash which is really great for selfies. However, compared to the ASUS Zenfone 2, the Zenfone Selfie doesn’t have an Intel Atom processor and instead, it is running on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 processor with 3GB of RAM. Still not bad though.

The ASUS Zenfone 2 Deluxe
This is probably the most lovely Zenfone you’ll ever see. The Zenfone 2 Deluxe packs the same processing power of the ASUS Zenfone 2 ZE551ML however this one has a tesselated polygonal design back which looks very different compared to other smartphones. It looks good and it is really attractive to the eyes. Another eye-popping feature of the ASUS Zenfone 2 is it packs a 128GB of Internal Storage. Yeah, that’s the storage of the smartphone and there’s still a microSD card slot for expansion. Awesome huh?
