MWC 2017: Asus to launch Zenfone 3 Go, a budget smartphone for budget buyers

Asus may launch a new budget offering from its existing Zenfone 3 lineup called the ‘Zenfone 3 Go’. This is likely to be the revival of the budget ‘Go’ series from the company which was launched back in 2015 as reported by GSMArena .

Asus seems to be trying to launch as many smartphones in the ZenFone 3 series to make a profit before it moves on to the next series. There were no details about the company launching anything during the MWC 2017.

All that confusion is cleared up now as details have leaked that Zenfone 3 Go is the smartphone that the company will launch during the event. According to the smartphone poster, the smartphone will come with a ‘Livestream beautification mode’ for the live streams that users will do using Facebook or YouTube. The smartphone will pack larger 1.4 um pixels, soft LED flash on the front for better selfies and dual MEMS Mics for clear sound with minimum noise.

There are not many details about the smartphone but according to the report, Asus Zenfone 3 Go will come with a 5-inch HD screen while being powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor. The smartphone will run on 2GB RAM with 16GB internal storage. The smartphone is rumoured to pack 13MP camera sensor on the back along with a 5MP camera module on the front.
