I noticed an interesting thing. the models are slightly different in the US and Japan. How about other markets.
US--2 models.
Japan 3 models.
Seems to be a smaller 5.2 inch is sold in Japan, where I live. Gorilla 3.
Then the regular in the US, which I call the deluxe 1 of 2 in Japan
The the true Deluxe, which is called the Deluxe 2 of 2 in Japan.
MODEL ONLY IN JAPAN CALLED ZENFONE 3
(soon to be released)
5.2 gorilla Glass 3, Snapdragon 625 2Ghz Adreno 506
US MODEL ZENFONE
Zenfone 5.5 gorilla Glass 4, Snapdragon 625 2Ghz Adreno 506
CALLED ZENFONE DELUXE IN JAPAN (seemingly same)
US
Zenfone 5.7 gorilla Glass 4, Snapdragon 820/2.15Ghz OR 821 2.4Ghz Adreno 530
Also sold in Japan as a Deluxe model with the 2.4Ghz Adreno 530
Curious, the snapdragon processors seem to have change since an earlier announcement, but what is the difference between the 625 and the 820. And also, why do they have two models in the US for the deluxe--820 and 821?
BTW, no Ultra in japan yet.
