I'm *trying* to order a Zenfone 2.
I am assuming it is an upgrade from my LG G2 as everything I have seen so far about the Zenfone looks perfect!
Now, I thought there were 2 versions. 1 with 4GB RAM and a faster CPU and 1 with 2GB RAM and the standard CPU.
However, after some research, I found that there is a version with 4GB RAM but with the 'slower' processor out of China.
I'd like to order it from China as it is too expensive in the EU.

Can anyone confirm that there are more than 2 versions?
And If I get the CN version, will it work ok in the EU since the 4G LTE is compatible, I mean language changes, OTA updates...etc ...?
TIA!

Hi there.
As far as I remember there is a total of 5 versions between the 5" and the 5.5" sizes. The version you mention has 4GB Ram, 32GB of memory and a Quad-core clocked at 1.8 GHz. (I have that version, btw). Hope that helps

Thanks for your reply!
I didnt know there is a 5" version of the Zenfone 2!
Does the ZE551ML 4G/32GB Chinese version do OTA upgrades outside of Asia?
Is it much slower than the Z3580 version?

No problem. I don't think the OTA Updates work outside of Asia. (I changed my SKU to WW, worldwide, and I sideload the updates with adb)
I couldn't really give you a comparison between the Z3580 and the Z3560 versions but to me it is really smooth overall (I would say my nexus 6 on 5.1 was a bit smoother).
That being said, if you can afford it, I would suggest you to buy the 64GB version, for future-proofing reasons.

Have a good day

I ordered the 4GB/64GB version with the faster CPU.
As to which version I will receive, only time will tell.
