Asus ZenFone 2 Editor Rating:
The ZenFone 2 line of devices consists of four devices, but due to the rather affordable price points of all those devices, we'd recommend you get the 4GB variant of the device. You can get this handset for around $300, in certain areas even under $300, which is really affordable for such a handset. The lower-end variants are also quite powerful devices and have definitely managed to get Asus under the spotlight. This Taiwan-based OEM did a great job manufacturing these devices. To wrap this up, if you're looking to purchase a smartphone for around $300 off-contract, the ZenFone 2 is a great choice.
