During the announcement yesterday, the major differences between the ZE550ML and ZE551ML were isolated only on the amount of RAM and internal storage. And of course, the starting price.
Today we got a few more details that the ZE550ML will be using a slower Intel Atom Z3560 1.83GHz processor while the ZE551ML will be running Intel Atom Z3580 2.33GHz processor. Likewise, there’s additional info that the display resolution on the ZE550ML will only be 720p as against the 1080p of the ZE551ML.
We’re curious as to how much the starting price of the ZE551ML will be but we’re hoping it would be in the $299 to $349 (Php14,999).
get confused..i bought may zenfone2 from LAZADA (P9,900). It stated in the box ZE551ML model in the sticker but in contrary to the spec mentioned above mine is only 2gb with a capacity of 16GB storage with a Processor of Intel Atom Z3560 1.83GHz which supposed to be for the ZE550ML model and the res. of my unit is 1920 x 1080 pixels instead of 720 x 1280 pixels? anong model ba itong Zenfone 2 ko? is it ZE551ML or ZE550ML
If it is full HD, then it is the ZE551ML.
Why is it that the ZE551ML is showing 2G RAM only on some advertisements, here its 4G?
if you are a benchmark freak, the ze550ml is the better pick. same specs as with the ze551ml (1.8mhz), but has a lower screen resolution. if you are more into display crispness though, then the ze551ml would be better for you. pagdating sa games, parang sa ze550ml ako. personal preference lang.
bakit sabi sa Asus/Villman sa MegaMall/Cyberzone, June pa daw ang release nitong Zenfone2?
Available na po ang 2Gig RAM sa SM megamall. kaso 10K ang price. NO no No ! stick with z5 muna.
Both models are now on Lazada, is the 3k additional for the ZE551 worth it?
April na..Balita?
wala pa ba ma release to?? march na kasi
Available na po ba ang zenfone 2 at saang retail store, please reply kung sino may alam
Happy with my z5 lite… but will be happier with z2 ZE551ML! Hope covers and accessories available upon release…
March is coming. Zen2. Come on. don’t make us wait another month. Take my money!
