Budget 10-15K Asus zenphone 5 or Moto E/G

[d6bmg]

Max budget 11K
Please don't suggest me to buy Mi3 as I can't extended the budget beyond 11K.
Confused between Asus Zenphone 5 or Moto E or Moto G
Asus have 2GB of RAM whereas Moto G/E have 1GB of RAM.
But some people are telling Asus's battery life isn't that good.
Please help!!

Moto G is out of your budget if you cannot extend beyond 11k.
Moto G costs 11999 i.e 12k

I was talking about 8GB version which costs 10.5K

Would you be waiting for another month or so ?? Redmi would be here, expecting September first week launch!

After seeing the fiasco of Mi3, I am really skeptical about the availability of Redmi 1S :/

8GB isn't recommended. Too little space to install app's/games, songs etc.
If it had an external memory card slot, then 8GB would have had been fine.

8GB is nearly useless if you want to use it as a smartphone, just think about how much space will you get after OS, preinstalled apps etc..

8GB is useless if you're going to fill your phone with movies and lots of games. If you're going to play the games like candycrush, are willing to watch movies through USB OTG, and can live with a not-so great camera, then the Moto G 8GB is a good buy. (1GB for songs, 1-2GB for pics and videos, and 1-2Gb for apps.)

But, it's got some network issues, and the camera isn't great. It was the most value for money phone when it came out, and it redefined the lower mid-range category. But you've got more options now. Xolo's, Redmi's, Asus's, Spice's, etc. They all offer something similar or superior at lower prices.

Asus have low batterylife issues :/
Redmi 1S, great phone, but only god knows when it will be launched in India, if not never.

Update: ordered 8GB version of Zenfone 5, hen cancelled it 1 hour ago after reading so much complaints about battery life in flipkart from certified buyers.
Then again, battery is non-removable. Means future cost while replacing that battery.
