ASUS will be try to repeat their success with ASUS ZenFone 2 – the world’s first phone coming with 4GB RAM, with their new Asus Zenfone, the ASUS ZenFone 3. It will also be the world’s first 6GB RAM smartphone, not the Samsung Galaxy S7!
Asus Zenfone 3 Specs – World’s First 6GB RAM Smartphone
Earlier, some said the ASUS ZenFone 3, the successor of the successful Asus Zenfone 2, would come with 5GB RAM, which had already blown us away. However, it was before Samsung announced their 6GB RAM for smartphones. As a result, our logic is that ASUS will grab this chance to join the 6GB RAM battle with their third generation of ASUS ZenFone!
As for the ASUS ZenFone 3 specs, we hope that the company will equip it with the top features at the time it is released. The trend now is 2K resolution and predicted to be 4K next year. Therefore, the case in which ASUS ZenFone 3 smartphone boasts a 5.5-inch Quad HD display is totally possible. About the processor, maybe Zen 3 would still use a chip from Intel, but it should be something like Intel Atom Z3590 2.5GHz or better. In addition, we’ve got 6GB RAM and 128GB of internal storage as what are expected to be on-board as well.
In terms of Asus Zenfone camera, it would be the best if ASUS ZenFone 3’s snappers are capable of at least 16MP plus OIS on the back and 8MP on the front. Then, those who love taking photos or selfies would feel extremely happy. The whole machine would be powered by a 3,500mAh battery, yet it could be more like 4,000mAh and above.
Asus Zenfone 3 Release Date and Price
Most likely the Asus Zenfone 3 Price will be similar to Asus Zenfone 2 and the Asus Zenfone 3 Release Date and Launch is in March 2016. The Asus Zenfone 3 Price will be around the same as Zenfone 2. We really hope that Asus will do the same Marketing Stunt for their new Asus Zenfone 3 and be one of the first (or the very first) 6GB RAM smartphones worldwide. Anyhow, the concept is so “delicious”, right?! We really hope it will see the light some day!

Recently there is some news going around about full charging at only 6 minutes. That seems a very interesting and amazing technology, but we will not talk about that today. Since new technology will be on new smart phones, we focus more on already released devices. In a fast charging test conducted not too long ago, Asus Zenfone 2 and Samsung Galaxy S6 are tied on a 30 minute test. However, Asus Zenfone 2 stays the fastest charging smartphone if charging time at 15 minutes or lower.
Asus Zenfone 2 tops the list of fastest charging smartphones
Asus Zenfone 2 battery is 3000mAh. With normal charging, it would take the device around 3 hours to be completely charged. However, with fast charging enabled, Asus Zenfone 2 only takes around 1 hour 45 minutes to be fully charged.
It takes around 1 hour and 45 minutes for Zenfone 2 battery to charged from 1 to 100%
And around 47 minutes to charge from 1 to 67%
It seems Asus has proved the promised time for fast charging they has made before. With this, Asus Zenfone 2 stays a more favorable smart phone among its rivals.
On the other hand, Samsung Galaxy S6 battery is only 2500mAh. Therefore, while it catches up with Zenfone 2 in the 30 minute test and gets a shorter fully charged time, the victory still goes to Zenfone 2. Hooray, Zenfone 2 users, now you even have the fastest charging smartphone in your hands.
Asus has long been known for producing laptops. Now, with the rise of portable devices, Asus dives itself into mobile and tablets. And we have to say, Asus nailed it well. With the release of Asus Zenfone 2 series, the company has sold over millions of devices. Asus Zenfone has become a trademark, something set in stones for Asus’ rise on to top 10 of the mobile market. Therefore, as their sales continually grow, we all know the fact that Asus will be in top ten soon.
Furthermore, as HTC sales drop dramatically that they had to sell their Shanghai factory, the path is much clearer for Asus.
Asus smart phone sales grow continually over the past few years
According to CEO Jerry Shen, the company plans to produce more than 40 million units in 2016. This is its first step to claim to the world’s 10th spot. Moreover, Asus is going to aim more at Indonesia market, since this is the 2nd largest market of Zenfones.
The company plans to ship more than 4 or 5 million units to Indonesia this year
For its India, Russia, Taiwan, Brazil and Malaysia markets, Asus plans to ship more than one million units to each. It seems the company is processing its plan to rise to world’s top ten seriously, starting this year.
As Zenfone 2 has sold more than 5 million unit in H1 2015, Asus states that it will sell 6 million more units this H2. Since Zenfone 2 has good market sales, this flagship will help them sell more than 21 million units this year.
However, before Asus claims its spot in the top ten, let us see the phones that mark its name. Below are the list of top famous Asus phones.
Earlier in August, Asus unveiled its new flagship Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe along with two other phones: Asus Zenfone 2 Laser and Asus Zenfone Selfie.
