After a couple of trailblazing months of headlining device after another, Asus are coming back to the entry-level smartphone market. The Taiwanese giant are launching the Asus Zenfone Live (L1) to our shores. It’s a respectable looking device that hopes to make a dent in the quickly saturating entry-range smartphone segment.

We won’t be expecting too many top-end features such as dual rear cameras or face-recognition, but on paper the specs are alright. A Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 powers the device, while Asus are pairing it with 2GB of RAM. The smartphone also comes with a no-frills 16GB of storage. You can however slot in a microSD card with up to 2TB of external storage possible.

As for the display, we have a 5.5″ 1440×720 IPS 18:9 Full View Display screen, continuing the trend of 18:9 screen ratios in 2018. You’ll also find a 5MP camera on the front and a 13MP PDAF camera on the rear. The phone also comes with a 3000mAh battery while also sporting a triple-slot tray for two SIM cards and your external storage. The device comes in two colours of your choice: Midnight Black and Shimmer Gold.

The Asus Zenfone Live (L1) is set to be made available for purchase by the end of June. You can get it for just RM399! For more information about the Asus Zenfone Live (L1) as well as their other products, you can click here.
