So much competition in the smartphone market at the moment. Especially budget devices. 

*Check out the $299 ZenFone 2. Unboxing and first impressions:*

I got and unboxed this phone too about two weeks ago. Absolutely loved it.

[kenteets]

I've been using the Zenfone 2 for almost 2 weeks as my daily driver, and im quite impressed. For $300 U.S. you get a lot of phone, and bloat, but thankfully some of it u can remove, like that awful clean master, first thing that went.

[TheKelz]

Wow, the touch response if freaking quick. Feels faster than Nexus 6.

[frenchy]

Damn Tim looks high on this video. Smoking that good stuff.

$200 for the 2GB model and I gave my father the LG G3 because the UI on the Zenfone didn't lag compared to the G3 and the camera was pretty good.  Took the phone to the aquarium and was able to get better dark shots than my wife's S6.  The only thing I wish they would have included was an IR blaster.

Nice phone, looking forward to the review. Thanks Tim great video as always

[houchi]

Thank you Tim.  I will be waiting patiently (and impatiently hehe...) for the tutorial on root and unlock bootloader

Hi Tim, I had the zenfone 6 and loved the UI, then got a one plus one due to wanting something faster and I miss that Asus software. I thank its very good and looks similar to what you showed in the video. Can't wait for the full review. Many thanks

Tim Schofield (Qbking77) Awesome video..the Asus zenfone2 is nice & the price is right..2 key features I really wish it would have is a removable battery & the capacitive keys light up as well..that would be #AWESOME for me.

[SuperDrifter]

I'm mind blown how asus didn't bother to put a pair of earbuds on the more ''expensive'' model

[antoniolainez]

Now that you have it do a versus with the idol 3 cameras, sound, gaming, screen quality and most important battery life :D

[rafaelgservices]

please post you reviews on the camera I did a research and they say the camera is pretty bad compare to other low budget phone like the elephone touch...thank you

[terrybeark]

been using this for 2 weeks now, performs like a top ranged smartphone, smooth and quick in daily use and in games, only down side is the battery drains quick when in high end games like MKX or PES, but it still lasted me for about 3-4 hours straight on games. as for removing bloatware, my version was able to remove them, (ie clean master and trip advisor) maybe u nid to update the firmware to do that?

[ErrRx]

should of tested a game such as shadowgun from the google playstore. the game has a ultra high def setting that would be a good test for the screen and proccessor.

[brokewheels]

Are there any androids left that have a removable battery?

[masondelozier]

I think I'm just going to get the idol 3 and save some money. I just wish the idol 3 had more internal storage

[LiteGaming]

hey man i got the CN of the same version you have i am wondering do you have the WW can you make the system.img for me soo i can use mine in canada please and thanks

[voiceofreason]

Btw I wish manufacturers made 5" top of the line phones. I'm tired of all this 5.5"+ stuff. Most people don't want phones that big..

[Diesel]

Why in the world would CleanMaster need to be added out of the box - or needed at all. SMH.

And ugh, can we do away w/ skins already.
