The ASUS ZenFone 5 LTE (A500KL) has already been on the market for some time but we finally got some more concrete numbers from Dynamics Distribution. While ASUS Malaysia have yet to come out with the official announcement, the main distributor in Malaysia has revealed that the local ASUS ZenFone 5 LTE will be priced at RM709, making it one of the more affordable 4G LTE devices in the Malaysian market. They also revealed the full tech specs list for the ASUS ZenFone 5 LTE which you can see below:

  • 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm MSM8926
  • 5-inch display (IPS, 1280 x 720 pixel resolution)
  • 2GB RAM
  • 16GB storage + 5GB ASUS Web Storage + up to 64GB microSD
  • Supports Single-SIM, 4G LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS
  • 8MP rear camera (F/2.0, PixelMaster) + 2MP front camera (F/2.4, PixelMaster)
  • Android 4.4
  • Comes in Black, Gold and White
  • RM709.00

From the tech specs above it seems the 4G LTE version is not running on an Intel processor (which could affect performance somewhat) but still offers 4G LTE connectivity and 2GB of RAM. The smartphone is no longer dual-SIM though but all the other tech specs remain the same. One good addition is that it will come with Android 4.4 KitKat right out of the box, something which many current ASUS ZenFone smartphone owners are eagerly awaiting. No specific details yet on Malaysia release dates but we expect it to be soon.
