Moto E5's storage for apps and games is very similar to Asus ZenFone V Live's one, both have an external memory slot that admits a maximum of 128 GB and equal 16 GB internal memory.
Motorola Moto E5 and Asus ZenFone V Live count with really similar processing units, both have a 2 GB RAM and a Quad-Core processing unit. Moto E5 has greater battery life than Asus ZenFone V Live, because it has 4000mAh of battery capacity.
