I would actually suggest the ZenFone 2. For roughly the same amount of money, you get a much better phone.

I'd say ZF2. Just giving you a simple comparison:

Asus Zenfone 2 vs Samsung Galaxy E7
(Both using the $299 version, which is 4GB/64GB for ZF2, and 2GB/16GB for E7)

Asus Zenfone 2Samsung Galaxy E7
Price$299$299
Weight170g141g
Processor:Intel Atom Z3580Qualcomm Snapdragon 410
RAM4GB2GB
ROM64GB16GB
Camera13MP/5MP13MP/5MP (though given the their track records, I would probably give a win to the Samsung side)
Screen Resolution1080p Full HD720p HD
Screen TechIPSAMOLED (AMOLED isn't always better, just that this ZF2 screen isn't particularly good at all. At all!)
OS5.0 Lollipop (Newer, but more issues. Still waiting for 5.0.2 or 5.1)4.4.4 Kitkat (Older, but more stable)
Battery3000 mAh2950mAh

So for me, I'll go with the ZF2 for better screen resolution, faster processor, bigger ram, larger storage capacity, newer OS, and bigger battery. You might want to try the Samsung if you value the better screen technology (brighter, in this case), maybe just slightly better camera (or not!), lighter build, and probably slightly better customer service (from the fact that ASUS isn't as big here in the States as it is in Asia.) To me, the choice is actually rather obvious :)

Sorry i forgot to mention, its the 2GB RAM and 16/32gig memory variant. Would it still win against E7, also include the durability of the phones. Thank you!

These are new phones so one wouldn't really know about the durability. But if you're going for the 2gb ram, hey it's $199! A third cheaper with all other specs at least on par with if not better than the E7. That's even an easier choice for me to make. The processor of the 2/16 version is slightly slower but my guess is that it still has quite some lead over the 410.
