On related news it seems that there could be Qualcomm and Mediatek Versions of the Asus Zenfone 2. It looks like Asus works already with Qualcomm to bring the powerful Snapdragon CPU to the Zenfone 2. Also a Mediatek version of the phone could launch in emerging markets soon.

An Asus Zenfone 2 with Snapdragon and 4GB of RAM – this would be awesome! Probably Asus contract with apple will state that Asus will buy a specified amount of Intel Processors in a specified amount of time. As long as Asus fulfills that agreement, they can work with Qualcomm and Mediatek for the new Asus Zenfone 2.

In general it really seems Asus is doing everything right with the new Asus Zenfone 2. They will launch a smaller version for all those fans who think 5.5″ is too large. Also it seems you get a Snapdragon Version for all those fans who are afraid the Intel CPU is not powerful enough!The Asus Zenfone 2 Price in Malaysia will be RM725 for the 2GB Version and around RM1050 for the 4GB RAM Version. Chuzpe ASUS!
