Exclusive: We got the retail price of the Zenfone 3

ayy.. mag oneplus3 nlang aq, akala q 15k lang to..

I think it justifies its claim for the price. The bad thing is that it won’t sell that much, well, I think. There are a lot of competitions in that price range. And Asus target market before wouldn’t bite an almost 300% of the 1st generation’s price.

Possible Yugatech got this information from Asus SM North EDSA Shop., they posted the pre order price on thr fb page , i just hope that this is not the final price as if you will compare to last pricing , laki ng increase, Comparing taiwan – ph price.

** they update thr post too and remove the pre order price

Expensive.

Naghintay ako ng 3 months pero nakakadisappoint yung pricing :(

Nope. I was planning on getting this for my brother… but at that price, I’d rather get a Samsung A7. Sorry Asus, you should have priced it under 15k. -.-

Magkano official price ng Lenovo Vibe X3? Almost the same specs ng Zenfone 3.

Sa widgetcity, 13K ang 16GB/3GB version (Snapdragon 808, NFC) tapos last December pa narelease!

Akala siguro nila tatangkilikin mga unit nila same as old days parang hindi nila alam na may ka compete sila

Price seems to be inline with Malaysia’s pricing, we are a few hundreds cheaper (note: Malaysia’s tax rate of 6% vs our country’s 12% = duty is zero for both countries). Kind of disappointing if you are expecting super cheap bang-for-the-buck that Zenfone 1 launched with, that was made possible by Intel chips that were probably subsidized by Intel.

Now that it switched to Qualcomm, the price advantage is no longer there, unless they priced it at a loss or breakeven like what Xiaomi is probably doing with the Mi Max, Those companies (ie Xiaomi) can sell at a loss or at cost, because they raised billions in IPOs or through venture capital infusion.

Of course, at that price, they shouldn’t expect to sell in quantities like before, maybe their Selfie and Max will carry the day, but at 17-20k, they got plenty of competition. And that not counting the Deluxe and Ultra version which will have to contend with Samsung’s S7 and A9 Pro. Between Samsung and Asus, we – Filipinos will most probably choose Samsung.

Another reason why Asus can’t priced it cheaper is probably because, they don’t sell it direct to consumers. Asus to local distributor to wholesaler to retailer… that’s four layers, if each makes only 500 (highly unlikely given that most stores here sell at SRP (almost like oligopoly pricing)), then that’s 2,000 just for markups.

Wow, mahal. Kung ganito ang gagawing pricing ng 5.5, bibilhin ko nalang yung SAMSUNG Galaxy Note 4, super amoled pa yung 5.7 screen.
