ASUS has always been confusing at naming the variants for its smartphones though it offers loads of them for the users to choose one based on their budget. The ZenFone 2 was one classic example, but to continue with the same, Asus had done the same thing with the ZenFone 2 Laser, the smartphone with Laser autofocus for the camera.
There are several variants of the Asus ZenFone 2 Laser, and they differ with not just the internal storage, but also with color and RAM. Let’s check out the different variants and help you buy the one that suits your need.
Before we begin, it is worth noting that the ZenFone 2 Laser is one of the best budget smartphones of 2015, rated by our editors. No wonder why we would recommend this over others, except for the competitors like Coolpad Note 3, and company’s own ZenFone Max with 5000 mAh battery.
Asus ZenFone 2 Laser Variants
5-inch variant – Rs. 7999
Let’s talk about the 5-inch one now. It carries the model number ZE500KL and you will have to search for that particular model number if you wanted to buy the one with a 5-inch screen. It is a single model with 8GB internal storage, and price is Rs. 7999.

5.5-inch variants – Rs. 8999 / Rs. 9999
The first model that we are talking about is the ZE550KL. It has 16GB internal storage, a 5.5-inch HD display, 2GB of RAM and a 13-megapixel rear camera with Laser autofocus. There are four color options available with these specifications. Each of these is priced at Rs. 8999.
Another feature to note – This model ZE550KL is powered by the quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor. To be frank, if you are not looking at a bigger screen size and are okay with the 2GB RAM if not a heavy user, this is the best model to go with, because Snapdragon 410 is snappy at performance and it does well with the camera captures too.
