19 May, 2016
Asus should lift the veil on the third-gen Zenfone in a couple of weeks.

I think the "sealed battery" if it means what I think it means (i.e.non-removable) is a big step backward from the Asus Zenfone 2 line. This leaves only LG as a brand name manufacturer that's putting out midrange to flagship phones with user-replaceable batteries.

        Hi I'm an expat living in Taiwan. I have decided to buy the Zenphone 3 the day it becomes available.

        The announcement will be May 30. Can anybody guess how long after the product will be released in Taiwan? I just wonder if the phone will become available to buy in Taipei on June 1, or June 10, etc. Hopefully not too long to wait.

        Secondly.. where is a good place in Taipei to buy the phone when it first becomes available? I know about Guang Hua Digital Plaza. But is there a better place in Taipei that might get the phone to sell sooner? Thank you!

                    Hope that 4.5 inches will be true and with 2gb and dual sim finally. Then I will go for it.

                      Too much megapixel though, I mean 16 or even 12 megapixel is enough as far as the quality of the camera is good enough.
                      Resolution isn't everything and that could cut the price as well I think.

(Its same of Infinix Zero 3 even use Sony IMX 230 if it use Mediatek X10 the result its bad) but dont worry because ASUS Zenfone 3 use Snapdragon series :D

From what I understand only the rare carrier versions went down to 1Gb. Everyone that's sensible enough to not fall for the old "free phone" trick and just bought the Zenfone outright got 2Gb. ^.^

                                AnonD-404798, 19 May 201623MP camera ? is it IMX300 ?Maybe. Because there are some leaks from ASUS Distributors that they are using Sony sensors. Oh, and there are come in 4 sizes. 5,2 inch, 5,5 inch, 5,7 inch and 6,8 inch.

                                    for now i go with Zen 2 Laser 5", hopefully there will be another Zen 3 Laser with 5" screen. 5.5" is too big for me, im happy using 5" phone with decent spec and cheaper like Zen 2 Laser.
