ASUS ZenFone 3 Zoom Price

I know what you’re thinking — How much does it cost? The answer — I don’t know. ASUS has not yet announce the price of the ZenFone 3 Zoom in the Philippines. All we can do is guess. But according liliputing.com, the phone retails for about USD470 in Malaysia. So I guess that puts the price squarely around the Php24,000 and up range. We’ll find out on its official launch on April 6, 2017.
