Intel inside: Asus Zenfone2 with 4 GB RAM gets unboxed and benchmarked

The Asus ZenFone 2 will forever go down in the history books as the first smartphone with a version that features 4 GB of RAM on board. Not only that, but it also has an unorthodox chipset - the 64-bit quad-core 2.3GHz Intel Atom Z3580 SoC with benchmark-busting PowerVR Rogue G6430 GPU. Intel's inroads in mobile are getting stronger by the day, and, judging by the thorough benchmark session of the Zenfone 2 below, the chip giant has every chance to succeed.

The type of scores you see below, is usually reserved for flagship Android handsets, not for the Zenfone 2, which costs just $318 for the version with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal storage. Previously we saw a whopping 50,000+ result on AnTuTu, but it was from the Zenfone 2 model with 2 GB of RAM and 720p display.

Well, as you can see the 4 GB RAM variant with a 5.5" 1080p screen scores just a tad lower, 47,434 points, which is a pretty amazing result for an upper midrange (at least in price) gear. Check out the rest of the benchmark and unboxing photos for that unorthodox Zenfone 2 handset below.
