Asus has finally made available its budget phone Asus Zenfone Go in India for Rs. 7999. This phone was launched in India in Asus Zenfestival but company took time to make it available. It will be available at ASUS exclusive outlets and all leading retail stores. Online, it will only be available via Flipkart starting from today.
Asus Zenfone GO features a 5 inch HD display and runs on Android 5.1 with ZenUI at top. It is powered by a 1.3 Ghz MediaTek MT6580 processor with 2 GB RAM and 8 GB internal storage. It also has microSD card slot option to expand storage. It has 8 megapixel rear camera with LED flash and 2 megapixel front camera. It offers 2G, Wi-FI, Bluetooth and GPS. Lack of 4G can be a major drawback of the phone because we already have similar kind of options but with 4G. It is packed with 2070 mAh battery.
Commenting on the launch, Peter Chang, Regional Head – South Asia & Country Manager – System Business Group – ASUS India, said, “We are excited to announce the availability of ZenFone Go for our Indian users.
