Ever since the Asus Zenfone 2 was announced in Las Vegas last month, we’ve been waiting for news of its availability and pricing. One reason for the excitement has been that that the Zenfone 2, or at least one variant anyway, is one of the very first smartphones to boast 4GB of RAM. And now it’s available to pre-order via AliExpress for $440.
As alluded to above, the Zenfone 2 comes in two variants, with the lower model sporting a 64-bit Intel Atom Z3560 Quad-Core processor running at 1.8GHz, along with 2GB of RAM. The higher-powered model uses the 64-bit Intel Atom Z3580 Quad-Core CPU, running at 2.3GHz and backed up with 4GB of RAM. Apart from those differences, both models share the same hardware:
- Android Lollipop with brand new Asus Zen UI.

The 2GB model is available to pre-order on AliExpress for $299.90, a bit more expensive than Asus’ previously announced price of $200. The 4GB model Zenfone 2 has a pre-order price of $439.90. Both the 2GB/4GB models up for pre-order have 64GB of internal storage, and they are available in Ceramic White/Osmium Black/Glamor Red/Glacier Gray/Sheer Gold colours.
