ASUS Philippines has dropped the news about another ZenFone Max Pro M1 variant, just as we had speculated recently. But instead of announcing the top-of-the-line 6GB RAM model, the Taiwanese manufacturer revealed retail plans for the ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M1 with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage here.
It has been priced at P13,995 locally, which translates to roughly $263. Preorders for the phone have gone live at ASUS stores and authorized retailers nationwide and will run through July 22.

In addition to the memory bump, the 4GB RAM and 64GB storage model pairs a sharper 16-megapixel main camera (upgraded from 13 megapixels) with a 5-megapixel one for portrait-style pictures with dreamy bokeh blur.
