The Asus Zenfone 5 with Intel chipset was a huge success and now Asus has already taken the next step – it is the Asus Zenfone 5 housing the qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad core processor with 4G support and like the Intel Zenfone 5 this one too comes with 2GB RAM.
As far as the specifications are concerned the Zenfone 5 LTE (4G) version will sport a 5 inch screen with 1280 x 720 pixels resolution. The processor is Snapdragon 400 clocked at 1.2GHz with Adreno 305 GPU. There is a good 2GB RAM and 16GB/64GB storage. Micro SD of up to 64GB is supported.
Common features like Wi-Fi, GPS and Bluetooth will be included. Most likely the handset could be running the Android 4.4.x OS out of the box. And the best part is Asus have been proving frequent updates – the Intel Zenfone’s in India have got few updates since its launch.
Not sure when the Zenfone 5 4G will be launched in India but if the price is set right it could be as successful as the 3G Zenfone 5.

Gogi, can the price of Asus zenfone (4.5 inch screen) be dropped from 6999?
Gogi, how to cope up the situation if display got stuck somehow in smartphone like this with non-removable battery ?
Amit for almost all handsets with non-removable battery you can restart by pressing and holding the power button until the handset reboots (takes about 10 to 20 seconds).
It’s official, listed on Asus website. Model A500KL.

If price is right then it will create storm in India. Bye to Moto G.
