Yes you can get a Zenfone 2 for about £50 more - those will ALL be imported. This is a UK phone released by Asus in the UK.
This is my phone, and I don't see myself wasting silly money on anything else anytime soon. Cheapest I've yet seen it.
Asus only sell unlocked phones, so no need to get it unlocked, ever.
This is 4G, an IPS screen, a quad-core CPU, 2GB RAM, 16GB internal and HD screen with Gorilla Glass 3.
Fast, always responsive, and not a single issue in at least a year of use - I love my Zenfone and hope this will be helpful to someone. Even though I know this deal will go cold - it's a "hot seller" on the site - so I really don't care. At least other humans have some sense! :D

It actually does last a day on a 5" screen. Owning one I can confirm this. Not owning one I'm going to assume you just took a guess.

out of interest, it's advertised with android 4.3. has yours upgraded ota to kitkat or lollipop? looks like a nice phone from a known brand actually in the UK now. Heat.

This is a KitKat phone - you can 'upgrade' to Lollipop if you root the phone - and there are those options out there that people have made. But I absolutely HATED Lollipop when I tried it on another phone - so I'm more than happy to stay with KitKat. :stuck_out_tongue:
As far as I'm aware Asus don't have Lollipop on the cards for their original phones.

First touchscreen phone I ever owned - dropped my first one down the toilet, got a Sony Xperia Z2. Sold that on and went back to one of these. Glad you like it. I like to whip it out round the shops (sshh) because despite clearly so many people buying it, I've yet to see a single other Asus phone, so I feel unique amongst clones.

YES I LOVE my Zenfone!! The thing I love most is the sheer faff-free experience. And when your daughter looks slightly underwhelmed that it isn't an iphone - just tell her she's now not an Apple/Samsung clone, and that in any case Samsung make most of the iphone components anyway.
