ASUS Zenfone 2

[PC-User]

4 GB RAM Incredible!

No matter how much RAM an Android device has, there'll be only 1/3 left free...

No 64gb version ?

Yes, 64GB version is not mentioned on the price leaked table.
Hope 64GB will also be released in March and not at a later stage.

I hope that the snapdragon version will have better battery life.

I'm staying away from the intel chipset Zenfone 2.

If bought in Taiwan will it come with google play and English version?

 

[F3Rm1nat0r]

when will it release in singapore?
prices are close to what was originally promised

can't wait
very excited for this phone
seems like ASUS is not advertising much though
could be part of their strategy to keep costs low

ASUS just updated their Taiwanese page with the phone details

wah, Asus wants to be in Xiaomi's footsteps to produce different capacities of powerbanks, though the 25600mAh one looks VERY tall..

The photos look very crisp, vibrant and sharp! The front cam also did a good job for a 5mp
