New Asus Zenfone with LTE and MTK 64BIT spotted

Asus is definitely a force to cope with, especially the Asus Zenfone Series is very popular in the low- to mid-tier segment. So far Asus has been using only Intel Chips for their Zenfone Series. This seems to be about to change with the newest Asus X002 using Mediatek’s 64BIT LTE CPU.

Asus X002 64BIT

Mediatek is currently the dominant CPU for 64BIT in mass production and it seems Asus is adopting the 64BIT trend with their new Asus X002. As you can see on the pictures design wise the new Asus phone will be very similiar to the current Asus Zenfone Series with a very classic, nearly understated design.

As you can also see on GFX Bench the New Asus phone will include the 64BIT MEdiatek MT6732 clocked at 1.5GHZ, a 5.0″ display with HD resolution, 8Megapixel Rear Shooter and 5MP FrontShooter. OF course the 64BIT Mediatek is from the newest generation and will support 4G LTE, 3G and GSM Networks. The Asus X002 will have 2GB RAM and will run on Android 4.4.1. Asus is relatively fast with the updates on Android L for their Zenfone Series.

What do you think about this switch from Asus from Intel processors to 64BIT Mediatek?
