As we mentioned in our introduction, it’s worth applauding ASUS’ foresight of finding new categories and differentiating itself from the competition. However, what’s important for any of these niche-focussed smartphones is that they should not only focus on their distinct USP, but also offer a package that’s compelling in other departments. But if you have followed our review, then it’s evident that the ASUS ZenFone Live falters on this aspect. Adding to its woes are a slew of others impressive offerings available under Rs 10,000. If you’re looking for a compact option, then you can choose between the Xiaomi Redmi 4 or the Lenovo K6 Power, both of which deliver a wholesome experience. In case you don’t mind phablets, then another device from Xiaomi’s stable makes to our recommendation list – the Redmi Note 4 (review).In short, the ZenFone Live is surely an interesting idea – one that probably paves the way for the future, where people would like to livestream anything and everything over different platforms for different intents and purposes. But if you go beyond that, the ZenFone Live fails to impress.
