China's telecommunication authority TENAA has officially certified two new Zenfone 3 variants which means customers in the country will be able to buy the new smartphones from ASUS.
The Zenfone 3 series has recently launched several weeks ago and all of the variants are being slowly rolled out across the globe. Some countries do not have most of the available models and customers are growing tired of waiting for the one that they want.
ASUS recently introduced the basic Zenfone 3, the Zenfone 3 Ultra and the expensive Zenfone 3 Deluxe option. For those who want the phablet option, they can choose the larger Zenfone 3 Deluxe and Zenfone 3 Ultra.
TENAA's certification made it possible to determine the new ASUS Zenfone 3 specs of the phones being shipped to China, GSM Arena has learned. One of the two variants will have at least 3GB RAM while the other one will have 4GB.
The 3GB model will also get 32GB in internal storage while the larger 4GB variant will also have a bigger 64GB for storing more files. Just like the other Zenfone 3 variants, the screens are expected to have just 1080p resolution which is disappointing for those who waited for a 1440p resolution instead.
ASUS's Zenfone 3 Ultra is said to be the one TENAA certified in China. No release date has been offered by the company but it is expected that the variant will be available soon in the country after the certification.
The Zenfone 3 Ultra phablet in China would most likely have the same 6.8-inch screen and will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 64-bit octa-core processor, Android Headlines reported. All of the graphics and video games will be handled by the chipset's Adreno 510 GPU which has shown great improvement over its predecessors.
Just like the Zenfone 3 Deluxe, the Ultra variant will also be running the Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow version out of the box. It also has the same USB Type-C port for faster charging and data transfers.
ASUS will have to announce the Zenfone 3 Ultra release date in China as the phone already got certified by TENAA. The other variant is also expected to be revealed in the following weeks.
