padfone s going for 279 - 50 = 229 at lazada flash deal.

229 * 0.95 = 218 (5% shopback)

anyone rooted?

hi all, thinking of getting the Padfone S for my wife.

I see that Asus store is selling for $299. Any other place which I can find it cheaper?

Also, for $299, any other phones which I should consider?

You may want to check qoo10. It's also $299 but you can use coupons for more discounts.

For the same price range, you can also check the Zenfone 2.

Thanks! Zenfone 2 slightly bigger. My wife prefer a one handed operation.

There is a smaller 5" screen size Zenfone 2 variant that i think u can get at as low as $184.


Looks good. How much will it cost?

Pricing for sg has not yet been confirmed but is expected to be ard S$276 or so. We will know how much exactly when it starts selling on 12 May.

I was just doing a direct comparison between the Mi 4i and Padfone S. Assuming that they are at the same price (see my reasoning below), the Padfone S is better due to better processor, wireless charging and expandable memory while the Mi 4i is better due to better battery life (just an assumption) and smaller dimensions and lighter weight, and maybe better camera performance.

There might be other differences but these are what jumped out at me when considering both of them.

I think the Xiaomi Mi 4i will cost closer to S$299 after factoring in 7% GST. It will be a pleasant surprise if they release for S$279.

Padfone S is also drop & water resistant

Mi 4i is also dual sim, runs Lollipop, and has manual controls in camera
