Just when you thought we have enough Zenfone 3 models to choose from, a new variant has appeared online, reported to sport a 5-inch HD display, Snapdragon 410, and 2GB RAM – the Zenfone 3 Go.
The new came from Italian website NotebookItalia.it, showing a render of the new Zenfone 3 Go as well as its specs. Like with the previous Zenfone generations, the “Go” in the name indicates an entry-level device. True enough, it’s models with its 5-inch HD display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 CPU, 2GB RAM, 16GB storage, 13MP rear camera with 1.4um pixels, 5MP front with Soft LED Flash, dual MEMS mics, and five-magnet speaker with smart amp.
As for the price, it is expected to retail for around 150 Euros or Php8K. Like with any other leaks, we’ll know more once it officially launches.

and there’s the rub isn’t it.. what good is a phone you can’t buy anymore.. you’ve really got to compare it with something you can actually get.. otherwise, it’s useless.
(btw, i have a G1.. it’s having issues now and cherry mobile returned it to me after 4 months at their repair facility to tell me that it can’t be fixed anymore.. so even if you have a G1 it’s still an issue.)
rumored 8000php for a SD410, 2GB ram, 16GB storage phone? asus will truly become the king of ridiculous pricing.
in contrast, SD 410, 2GB ram, 16GB storage, continually updated cherry mobile android one G1 running android 7.1.1 nougat, february 2017 security patch, was priced at 5999php 18 months ago. sad thing is cherry mobile did not re-stock this model.
