The Upcoming Asus Zenfone 3 has received a lot of leaked information about its specs. Particular leaked specs include a possible Snapdragon 650 or 615. However, a few new information suggests that a MediaTek Helio X10 could potentially be added up to the mix.
Asus is looking to introduce the Zenfone 3 with full metallic construction, which should give the Zenfone 3 a more premium and capable look and design. It’s good to know that Asus is taking things to the next level, in regards to their upcoming flagship, especially in the design department.
A bunch of reports suggests that the upcoming Asus Zenfone 3 will feature a 16MP rear shooter, which is an upgrade to the typical 13MP shooters of older Zenfone handsets, such as the Zenfone 2 and Zenfone Selfie
Right now, people are hyped at a few handsets that are built with 6GB of RAM, such as the Vivo XPlay5 Elite and the ZUK Z2 Pro and it seems that we could actually get one for the Zenfone 3. A possible 6GB of RAM variant has been speculated among Zenfone fans and tech experts, which sounds a bit farfetched, but entirely not impossible.
The new entry spells improvements and improvements can be seen through various shapes and sizes, which means we should expect to receive a new and updated Zen UI on the upcoming Zenfone 3. This won’t be much of a surprise since OEM’s do this all the time for their newer flagships.
This ain’t exactly one of the biggest revelation on this list, but nevertheless, it’s a worthwhile addition. The newest Android OS dubbed the Android 6.0 Marshmallow will arrive on the upcoming Zenfone 3 handsets.
Asus is looking to potentially upgrade towards 4K video recording on the Zenfone 3, which to us, feels like necessary. The Zenfone series needed something to hook up potential users and a video feature is not a bad idea.
The Zenfone 3 will feature the fingerprint scanner, which isn’t exactly as exciting as having 6GB of RAM under its hood. Nevertheless, knowing that Asus is doing their best to give the Zenfone 3 the necessary things to survive, that alone spells commitment.
Again, this isn’t much of a surprise to anyone as some may think. The Zenfone series are always variant-based and would often have various models, under the same moniker. So knowing that the Zenfone 3 would have two variants, possible an original Zenfone 3 and a Zenfone 3 Deluxe. However, we might actually get more than two variants, knowing that a 6GB variant could be a possibility.
