Is this the ASUS ZenFone 5 SRP?

We’re hours away from finding out the actual prices for the new ASUS ZenFone 5 series of smartphones, and one retailer seems to have slipped out with its actual pricing.

In a Facebook post from local retailer TechBox, the upcoming smartphone is included in what seems to be an offering for a shop now, pay later option for a specific credit card.

The ASUS ZenFone 5’s SRP has also been sent to our inbox by multiple readers, but we are yet to verify the authenticity until this time. With the said words now out of the actual posts, earlier edits of it revealed that the device will be priced at Php19,995. If this does bear truth, ASUS is rising to the challenge of bringing back its old bang-for-the-buck era and compete with other dominating brands in the upper mid-range tier.

Will this be the actual price when it hits stores later today? Tune in to our coverage of the local launch at 3:00 PM.

i really dont know. yes zenfone 5 have a great specs-price ratio for me. but right now in that price range its like swimming in a dangerous water where in it cant compete with other brand. there is moto series, A-series and lets not forget the older flagships of grey market. im fond of buying former flagships at a 20-26k price range which is a practical and a very good deal

I still feel that the only bang for the buck smartphone that Asus released was the original Zenfone5. 20k is not bang for your buck.
