AT&T adds the ASUS ZenFone 2E to the GoPhone line-up

Budget friendly phones have gained a ton of traction in the US in the last couple of years.  More and more people are opting for prepaid plans as they are a great alternative to high-priced contracts.  As a result, budget phones have gotten more attention from manufacturers, as they know customers still want a phone that can handle the day-to-day tasks without the price of a flagship.

Asus and AT&T have partnered to bring a no-compromise budget smartphone called the ZenFone 2.  For $119.99, you will get a 5-inch 1280×720 IPS display with 294ppi pixel density, Gorilla Glass 3 to keep things scratch free, 4G LTE, 1GB RAM, 8GB of on-board storage with the option to add a Micro-SD card up to 64GB, and it also comes with a 8MP rear camera with HDR mode.  In a comparison to a highly reviewed budget smartphone, the 2nd generation Moto G, all specs are the same with exception to the processor choice.  The 2nd generation Moto G uses a Snapdragon 400 whereas the ZenFone 2E uses the dual-core Intel Atom processor.  In regards to the price, the almost identically spec’d Moto G retails for 179.99, so if you’re trying to decide which phone is best, I think it is safe to say the Asus ZenFone 2E should be the phone to go with.  Keep in mind that Motorola has a reputation for providing the best service when it comes to updates to the software.
