This is an entry-level device built around an Intel Atom Z2520 dual-core chip clocked at 1.2 GHz, paired with just 1 GB of RAM. That's modest even for its era, so multitasking and heavier apps will feel slow. Storage comes in 4 GB or 8 GB variants, though a microSD slot lets you add up to 64 GB more, which helps offset the tight onboard space. The 4.0-inch TFT screen runs at 480 x 800 pixels, fine for basic browsing and messaging but not much beyond that.

The rear camera is a 5 MP shooter with autofocus and can record 1080p video at 30fps, decent for casual snapshots rather than detailed shots. A 1200/1600 mAh battery keeps things running, and at 115g the phone stays light in hand. It ships with Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, upgradable to 4.4.2 KitKat, plus dual SIM support for those juggling two numbers.

Asus Zenfone 4 price in Malaysia starts from RM389, and it's sold in five colour options including Charcoal Black and Cherry Red. Given the specs, it suits buyers looking for a basic backup phone rather than a daily driver for anything demanding.
