bumabawi na si asus, kung dadalhin nila zenfone 3 3G ram at 14k price, may panlaban sila kay j7 prime, vivo and oppo devices..

Phillip · 10 years ago

denmark · 10 years ago

Yown ohh.. kala ko aabot to ng mga 13-14k.. pero wait pa ako sa Nokia hahaha

Tonytheexplorer · 10 years ago

Nice design. Maganda yung texture sa render, sana ganun din sa actual. Consider this one kung aayusin ng asus ang pag update ng os at camera quality na pantapat sa huawei cam.

Easy E · 10 years ago

ASUS is now struggling na makabenta? Yan kasi…

Mark · 10 years ago

Sad thing that disappoints me with Asus mobiles is that once they realize that their mobile fucks in updating, they leave it behind. Like what happened in Zenfone 5. They updated it in L but leaves it with bugs it’ll make you go back to KK.

may commitment ba ang asus to upgrade zenfone 3 series to nougat and “O” android OS for the next 2 years?
if yes, this is a very good deal. otherwise, no upgrade/no support phone, max 6000php.

sa phone/tablet support, mukhang panalo yung apple iphone at ipad.

yung cherry mobile android one (first gen), no andorid 7 update, security update only until september 2016.
mukhang nagkamali sila sa 2 years support.
or until 7.1.1 nougat lang coming this december 7, 2016 (rumor) + some monthly security updates.
