Asus Zenfone 3 rumours begin, could come with fingerprint scanner

Asus really pulled a stunner with the Asus Zenfone 2 launch, a global phone at a great price with amazing hardware, so what’s for the next gen model?

Asus has been rolling out the Zenfone 3 with official pricing and launches in Taiwan and China, and other areas set to get the phone in the coming months. With up to 4GB RAM, an Intel CPU and nice styling the Zenfone 2 is on the radar of many buyers, but Asus are already working on the replacement.

According to Asus boss Jerry Shen, the company are looking to launch the Zenfone 3 in the second half of the year, The updated phone will be more of a ‘facelift’ model of the 2, with the added feature of a fingerprint scanner for added security.


With those details in mind expect Asus to be sticking to Intel for processing duties with an option of 4GB RAM once again. We do wonder if the update will see some design updates too? Possibly a slimmer narrower design? Let’s wait and see.
