1. Good battery backup 2. Good camera quality 3. Good music hearing experience 4. Good display. What else we want from a smartphone? Little more update, after using 1 Week: 1.Battery drains faster than expected. 2. My secondary phone is Lenovo P2. It gives me average 3 Days back-up, I have recovered all my apps from P2 at the time of first boot of Zoos S. So, both of my phones have same apps. Think Zoom S UI takes the Juice from Battery. 3. Average Memory used 2.7GB in Zoos S, where P2 with same installed apps it is 2.0GB. (both of these two are 4GB variant, and SD 625, AMOLED display) 4. As a result I am giving 12K extra just for Camera. I can get a good quality Digital Cam at this price. So guys, if you are not finding anything to waste money, please go for it. Update after Two month of Usage. Before giving new comments let me first clear that during this period one more update has come. 1. Zen UI 4 has been updated 2. Battery performance has improved 3. FM Radio has gone. Customer Care couldn't comment on this. May be on next update Radio will be available. 4. Asus's own installed software reduced to some extent. 5. New UI looks and performance is on premium level.

Very good product with absloutely magnificent craftsmanship. Camera is just superb with RAW support. Display and audio quality is also fantastic. Running latest android nougat 7.1.1. One important thing, for those who are worried about VoLTE support, I would like to share my experience. When I got this device, it didn't have volte support. But on the 5th day of my purchase on 14.09.17 I got an system update. With that I got the VoLTE supoort. Truly this is the best android mobile you can have under 30K.

*review update after replacement* flipkart send me a replacement unit ,which is also having issues with audio quality,the audio is distorted.after nouget update, display resolution seems decreased.i dont know what to do with this device.i made a bad choice,i humbly request people not to buy this product,since flipkart no more wants to give refund.my 12000 rupee xiaomi performs better than this over priced phone.i dont know about other people. even 7000 rupee smart phone has better audio quality with same asus supplied headset.Asus zenfone zoom s is plagued with hardware issues. i would not recommend anyone to buy this product.the unit i recieved seems defective.my phone battery drains quickly.camera is over exposed.audio from the headset is distorted.for this price i would recomed people to go for one plus 3t,honor 8 pro.even redmi note 4 'has better camera,audio quality,and battery backup.

Buy it because its actually better then the others in the price range. 3 best android options I had in 20k-30k were OnePlus , Moto Z series and my old trustworthy Asus. One Plus and Moto Z are plagued by weak battery and bad speaker. Camera on asus is much better then moto and better then One plus if you know to use manual mode. Also the after sales service of One Plus is pathetic, better shoot urself if you break the screen. Battery Life: Getting about 7-9 hrs of screen on time, I am satisfied with it also the phone dosent heat up at all. Camera : Awesome if you know to use manual mode , specially the low light photography. Headphone o/p : I would say average. Build : excellent Software : Asus UI is a bit cleaner with Nougat update Cons : Definitely the price, If it were launched with its actual international price it would have costed about 24500. Edit : (After 4 months of use) If anyone is facing screen wake up lag issue. just activate either double tap to wake screen or only finger print scanner either of one. Build : I have few dents, even though I have not dropped it once. But I am also a very rough user.

Okay. Bettery is excellent,but not a dual stand sim...and not available to transparent back cover.
