    Meet The World's First Smartphone With 4GB RAM

    Think your smartphone is a multi-tasking machine with its 2-3GB of memory? Well, there's a new Android-powered handset scheduled to launch in May that reportedly boasts a jaw-dropping 4GB RAM, which is more memory than any other smartphone on the market.

    The Taiwanese-based computer company ASUS unveiled its new flagship smartphone at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Nevada earlier this month. The Asus ZenFone 2 follows in the footsteps of its predecessor, delivering a well-built, ergonomic device with a highly competitive price. Unlike the ZenFone 6 and ZenFone 5 (earlier models), however, the ZenFone 2 features high-end specs to a superior level of performance.

    Specs and Features

    So, what kind of hardware is the Asus ZenFone 2 packing? Specs include:

    • 5.5-inch full HD IPS display with 403ppi
    • 64-bit 2GHz Intel Atom Z2580 processor
    • 4GB RAM
    • 13-megapixel primary camera with F/2.0 aperture
    • 5-megapixel front 'selfie' camera
    • Dual SIM card slots
    • 3000mAh non-removable battery

    The ZenFone 2 is available in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB models.

    To put the power of the ZenFone 2 into perspective, Asus claims the combination of its 64-bit processor and 4GB RAM can deliver 7x faster gaming performance than earlier ZenFone models. That's a pretty bold statement that should catch the attention of anyone who regularly plays games on their smartphone. 4GB is an incredible amount of memory for a smartphone, so we can only imagine the power behind the ZenFone 2.

    "ZenFone 2 is powered by an up to 2.3 GHz 64-bit Intel Atom processor Z3580 and has 4 GB RAM to deliver up to seven times (7X) faster gaming performance, so you'll enjoy slick web surfing, smooth video playback, great gaming experiences and multi-tasking that doesn't leave you waiting." – Asus

    Fast Charging Technology

    Furthermore, Asus claims the ZenFone 2 will charge from 0-60% in just 39 minutes thanks to its ultra-charging technology. There's nothing more frustrating than having your brand-new smartphone constantly die due to poor battery life. Some of the market's leading devices suffer from this problem, including various Samsung Galaxy models. However, the ZenFone 2 aims to solve this issue by offering long talk times paired with fast charging technology.

    The Asus ZenFone 2 will launch in March, starting at $199 for the 16GB model.
