80% Asus ZenFone 4 Review: Hidden gem
Source: Mobile Syrup
The ZenFone 4 marks yet another quality addition to Asus’s ZenFone line. While its lack of carrier support may mean it’s destined to remain an obscure brand for most consumers, those seeking quality inexpensive options online would do well to consider this handset.

Review: Asus ZenFone 4
Source: Hexus
The Asus ZenFone 4 is something of a Marmite smartphone. Slim, relatively light and possessing an above-average main camera, punchy audio, solid battery life and decent build quality, Asus gets a number of important factors right for this upper-midrange handset. However, the list of potential gripes is equally as long, with the ZenFone 4 outfitted with a slippy back, average screen, and, for the price, only a Snapdragon 630 chipset.

90% Asus Zenfone 4 – Review
Source: Cool Smartphone
Overall, I really top handset. I’m only sorry that it’s not available on the big networks here in the UK, so you’ll need to go through Amazon or Tesco for £449.99 or perhaps on a plan via Carphone Warehouse. It is a fantastic handset and priced well considering the quality and speed of it.

All in all, it is definitely a good phone for £450. It doesn’t really do anything special, but if you want a solid mid-range phone that doesn’t have any serious weaknesses, the ASUS ZenFone 4 will likely appeal.

80% Asus Zenfone 4 and Zenfone 4 Pro Review
Source: Phone Arena
All in all, The Zenfone 4 and Zenfone 4 Pro are both improvements over previous Zenfones. The ZenFone 4, in particular, is a solid option in its price point, so we’re pretty confident in saying that there’s never been a better time to try out a Zenfone – especially if it’s the Zenfone 4.

ASUS ZenFone 4 review: A good phone let down by the price
Source: Android Central
And that's where I feel it comes to a sad conclusion. The ZenFone 4 is an excellent phone, but it's one that many may pass over because of its price. If the ASUS thing takes your fancy, the entry-level ZenFone 4 Max with an enormous battery is £200 less. But at £449, you're paying a fairly high price for a mid-range device. Ultimately, that's where it comes unstuck.

ASUS ZenFone 4 (ZE554KL) review - A good beautiful mid-range smartphone
Source: Tech Nave
Overall, the ZenFone 4 is still a pretty good phone. My favourite features have to be the beautifully compact design, excellent battery performance and the camera is quite good too and it handles games quite well. The 8MP wide-angle is still okay in certain situations, but seriously, they really need to fix the connectivity performance. You may also find that your ZenFone 4 lags at times, so always be sure to check if there are any software updates because during my three weeks review, I've updated it three times already and I'm sure they will continue to roll out more.

Revisiting the ASUS ZenFone 4: A Formidable Premium Mid-Range Phone?
Source: Unbox
Here’s the thing — the ASUS Zenfone 4 is underrated. People don’t get to see how good it really is because they’re immediately turned off by the price. Other flagship devices are just a few thousand pesos more so it’s hard to not consider other options. The hard reality is that the ZenFone 4 faces a tough competition at its current price point.

Probably doesn't signal the start of an Asus assault on our phone-buying habits, but the ZenFone 4 is perfectly potent - if a little too stuck in its ways when it comes to software.

ASUS Zenfone 4 (SD630) Review
Source: Yugatech
All-in-all, the Zenfone 4 (SD630) is pretty much similar to its more powerful twin – same attractive and premium build, Super IPS display, and good camera quality. The only difference is the slight decrease in performance. Still, this device is capable of handling multiple tasks and a worthy addition to the Zenfone 4 lineup.

Qualcomm Adreno 508: Integrated graphics card in the Snapdragon 630 SoC based on the Adreno 500 architecture. According to Qualcomm "up to 30% faster graphics rendering than previous designs". 

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

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.

630: Mid-range octa-core SoC with eight ARM Cortex-A53 cpu cores at up to 2.2 GHz, an Adreno 508 GPU, a LPDDR4-2666 memory controller and a X12 LTE (Cat 13/12, 300 / 150 MBit) modem. Manufactured in the modern 14nm process. » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

5.5":

This display is quite big for a smartphone but frequently used for smartphones.

Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.  

0.165 kg:

Only few smartphones are more lightweight than this.

Asus: ASUSTeK Computer Incorporated, a Taiwanese multinational company, produces motherboards, graphics cards, optical drives, PDAs, computer monitors, notebook computers, servers, networking products, mobile phones, computer cases, computer components, and computer cooling systems. The company's 2007 revenues reached US$6.9 billion. ASUS also produces components for other manufacturers. The Eee PC initiated the netbook boom in 2008.

In the notebook sector, Asus had a global market share of about 11% from 2014-2016, making it the fourth largest laptop manufacturer. In the smartphone sector, Asus is not among the Top 5 and has only a small market share (as of 2016).

77.74%: This rating is not convincing. The laptop is evaluated below average, this is not really a recommendation for purchase.
