Weak SOC (Quad core A7 with Mali 400). Colors are a bit washed out. But 2GB RAM+ 32GB storage. Small 2650mAH battery and no 4G

3GB RAM+32GB storage. More compact, premium looking and 4000mAH battery. Quad core A-53 Mediatek is avg.

@puns - I think the On devices are also online exclusive.
 
Zenfone 2 laser. I got this for my mom and she's quite happy with it. Camera feels a bit below average.
Check if available in B&M stores. If not, then any Samsung one is your best bet.
 
OT: @Switch OP do you play Dota 2? If yes were you online in the game on saturday in the evening? If No, ignore. I chatted with someone under the same name and the way you type messages looked similar.
