Asus ZenFone 5 LTE Smartphone Review

ZenFone-5-KitGuru-Front-Right-Angle
The ZenFone 5 LTE features an HD (1280-*720) display, the same resolution as the ZenFone 6. Given that the screen is an inch smaller, though, the display is noticeably sharper here, with a PPI density of 294 proving more than adequate.

It is an IPS panel, too, and allows for great viewing angles – we were able to turn the screen away at multiple angles and still read text clearly.

While colour reproduction is strong, we felt the screen would have benefited from a higher contrast ratio. The iPhone 6, for instance, has a contrast ratio of 1400:1, and blacks are very deep with ultra-crisp whites.

The ZenFone 5 LTE doesn't quite reach these heights and as a result images don't dazzle as much as they could. They lack the depth they would have on other displays.

The display is strong, and for under £190 it is hard to ask for more, but it just feels the screen lacks a standout feature. It is functional and crisp, but there's nothing to set it apart from thousands of other HD displays.
