    ASUS ZenFone Go ZC500TG now available in ASUS Store Malaysia for RM519

    After quite a few leaks, the ASUS ZenFone Go (ZC500TG) is now available in the Malaysian ASUS Store for RM519. While the cheaper ASUS ZenFone C can still be seen on the site, it doesn't have stock and looks like it will probably be phased out soon. Despite being a bit pricier the ZenFone Go offers a bit more in terms of tech specs which includes a 1.3Ghz quad-core MediaTek MT6580 processor, 2GB RAM, 16GB storage, 5-inch 720p display, 8MP rear camera with LED Flash and 2MP front camera.

    ASUS ZenFone 2 with 4GB RAM and 16GB storage coming soon for $229 (RM970)?

    The ASUS ZenFone 2 offers a well balanced mix of style and performance. It is also one of the most affordable 4GB RAM smartphones around with the ZenFone 2 ZE551ML 4GB RAM / 32GB storage version going for RM1199. Quite recently a version with 4GB RAM and 16GB storage has appeared onAmazon and other online resellers for just $229 (RM970). While most of the tech specs and features remain the same with a 5.5-inch FHD display and 13MP PixelMaster rear camera, it looks like this version may have the slightly slower 1.8GHz Intel Atom Z3560 processor rather than the 2.3GHz Intel Atom Z3580 processor but both are just as powerful. Still no news of any Malaysia release dates for this version of the ZenFone 2 but it could offer a very tempting below RM1K smartphone for the Malaysian masses.

  • ASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe with 128GB storage coming to Malaysia in September 2015

    ASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe with 128GB storage coming to Malaysia in September 2015

    We recently spotted something interesting in the ASUS Malaysia product guide indicating that the top-of-the-lineASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe  is coming to Malaysia. No specific Malaysia release dates or pricing details were mentioned but with the product guide being for August to September we assume that the ZenFone 2 Deluxe is coming to Malaysia sometime in September 2015 next month. Tech specs  also indicate that this is the version with 128GB and not the recently announced ZenFone 2 Deluxe Special Edition that had 256GB storage. Rest assured though, as you should still be able to stick in a 128GB microSD for further expansion. Stay tuned and we'll update you as soon as possible.

  • ASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe Special Edition announced with 256GB storage + 128GB microSD

    ASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe Special Edition announced with 256GB storage + 128GB microSD

    The recently announced ASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe looks to be getting an upgrade as the ASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe Special Edition was recently announced for Brazil, this time packing in 256GB of storage over the previous 128GB. While 128GB is already huge, 256GB should make this Special Edition the videographers go to cameraphone along with other professionals who work with large files. Other tech specs remain the same as before though with a 64-bit 2.5GHz quad-core Intel Atom Z3580 processor, 4GB RAM, up to 128GB microSD slot and 5.5-inch FHD display with Corning Gorilla Glass 3. There are also a 13MP Pixelmaster rear camera with double tone LED flash, 5MP front camera and 3000 mAh battery. It will have two backplates, an angled black line version and a white Illusion pattern. So far there are no Malaysia release dates or pricing details but it seems unlikely that it will reach Malaysia through official channels anytime soon, considering that we still haven't got the ZenFone Zoom and are now just getting the ZenFone Selfie next weekend. It'd be great if we were wrong, but if you still want the ASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe Special Edition keep an eye on third-party sellers like SatuGadgetDotCom or DirectD.
