Asus ZenFone 3 64 GB Shimmer Gold 4G LTE, New, GSM unlocked
New in the box, the Asus ZenFone 3 in Shimmer Gold is the 64GB 4G LTE version with 4 GB of RAM and a GSM Unlocked dual-SIM tray. Gold glass sells well at prepaid counters serving Latin American and Asian communities, and the 64 GB tier avoids storage complaints on an Android 6.0 handset, so dealers on AT&T and T-Mobile MVNOs take this variant for activations.
The ASUS ZenFone 3 is the 2016 mid-range model that moved ASUS to glass-and-metal construction: Gorilla Glass on both faces, a 5.5-inch 1080p IPS screen at 600 nits in the 64 GB ZE552KL version, a Snapdragon 625 octa-core, 4 GB of RAM, a 16 MP Sony IMX298 camera with TriTech laser, phase-detect, and continuous autofocus plus four-axis OIS and 4K video, a rear fingerprint reader, USB-C, and dual SIM. Shimmer Gold is one of its launch finishes.
TG Wireless sells the ZenFone 3 to prepaid and MVNO dealers who need an unlocked dual-SIM Android with a strong camera, to exporters, and to marketplace sellers listing new, boxed units.

Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
The ZenFone 3 is a 4G LTE phone with dual SIM slots, so the US 2G and 3G retirements do not affect it, and the US ZE552KL carries the main AT&T and T-Mobile LTE bands. VoLTE acceptance on US carriers depends on the exact regional variant and firmware, so confirm with the carrier before promising activations; Verizon is not supported. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. For export, match the LTE bands to the destination market.
Resale fit
