The entry-level ASUS Zenfone C now has a better twin. Initially launched with just 1GB RAM and 8GB of storage, those who need a little more can step up with the ASUS ZenFone C Enhanced version that offers twice the amount of RAM and Storage for RM399. That’s just a mere RM60 extra over the current standard model that’s priced at RM339 on DirectD.
The rest of the specs remain unchanged with a 4.5″ 854×480 display that’s toughen with Gorilla Glass 3. It gets the same dual-core 1.2GHz Intel Atom Z2520 processor, which is also powering the Zenfone 4. For the enhanced version, you get 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage, which is also expandable with microSD up to 64GB.
For snapping pics and videos is a 5MP f/2.0 main camera with LED flash and the front is a basic VGA resolution snapper. The battery is a 2,100mAh capacity unit which is removable. In terms of connectivity, the Zenfone C is a dual-SIM device but it only supports 3G with HSPA+ speeds. Out of the box, it still runs on Android 4.4 KitKat with its own ZenUI running on top.
For RM399, the ASUS Zenfone 2 enhanced version cheaper than the Honor 3C and Redmi 2 enhanced version. However it is a step back in the display department and if you can afford a little more, you could get a smart phone with a HD 720p display and with 4G support like the Redmi 2.
