Reviews for the Asus ZenFone Lite L1 ZA551KL

80% Asus Zenfone Lite L1 review: A budget phone with good display and camera
Source: The Indian Express English Archive.org version
Asus Zenfone Lite L1 comes with good display, imaging sensor and battery backup, which is good to see at the price. However, 2GB RAM on the phone might just not be enough if you are into downloading and testing new apps more often. This budget smartphone from Asus is ideal for those who want a device to run casual tasks that include a few phone calls, taking a few selfies in between and texting on WhatsApp.

70% Asus ZenFone Lite L1 Review
Source: NDTV Gadgets English Archive.org version
The Asus ZenFone Lite L1 is priced aggressively at Rs. 6,999 but is available for Rs. 5,999 during Flipkart Festive Dhamaka Days sale. The Snapdragon 430 is slow compared to the newer processors that are available in other phones in the market, and the 2GB of RAM creates another bottleneck holding this phone back from delivering a fluid experience. If you are on a strict budget, you might want to consider the Xiaomi Redmi 6A (Review) instead, otherwise we would recommend that you put in a little more money and opt for the ZenFone Max M1 (Review) instead or look at other alternatives like the Realme C1 ₹ 6,999 (Review).

Asus Zenfone Lite L1 First Impressions: Will it be a hit?
Source: The Mobile Indian English Archive.org version
Zenfone Lite L1 seems to be an interesting smartphone which comes with all the basic things, which is required for first-time smartphone users. The design is pretty much standard and the octa-core processor is enough to drive this smartphone under basic usage. The camera seems to be different and the phone will face a stiff competition with the likes of Xiaomi Redmi 5A, Realme C1, Infinix Smart 2, Honor 7S and Lenovo A5.

Qualcomm Adreno 505: Mid range graphics card integrated in the Snapdragon 430 and 435 SoCs. Based on the 500 generation and supports modern standards like Vulkan 1.0, OpenGL ES 3.1 + AE, OpenCL 2.0 and DirectX 12.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

430: Lower mainstream octa-core ARM Cortex-A53 SoC clocked at up to 1.4 GHz and the Adreno 505 GPU, a DDR3L-1600 memory controller as well as an X6 LTE (Cat. 4) modem.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


5.45":

It is a very small display format for smartphones. You should by no means be mis-sighted and you will generally see very little on the screen and only have a small resolution available. In return, the device should be very small and handy.

Asus: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. is a major Taiwanese computer hardware manufacturer based in Taipei, founded in 1989. Under the Asus brand name, the company manufactures a wide range of products, including laptops, desktops, motherboards, graphics cards, monitors, smartphones and networking equipment, complete systems and PC components for end users.

Under the ROG (Republic of Gamers) brand name, ASUS manufactures gaming laptops known by gamers for their powerful specifications, dedicated graphics cards, high refresh rate displays and advanced cooling systems.

Beyond gaming, a wide range of notebooks are offered for different needs and budgets, from ultra-slim and lightweight ultrabooks to versatile 2-in-1 convertibles and budget-friendly options. In 2023, Asus had a 7% global market share of the PC market.

Customer satisfaction with ASUS notebooks concerns performance, the features, and the good price-performance ratio of ASUS notebooks. However, as with any brand, there are occasional reports of problems such as overheating, driver compatibility, or build quality issues.


75%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
