This is hard to imagine, but ASUS is confirming that the release date for the Zenfone 5 is indeed March 2018. Don’t get overly excited if you’re from North America or Europe because it’s going to be the Asian markets that will receive the March release date. It may be the summer for North America is previous year release priorities are followed with the Zenfone 5. Things could be different this time around, but our expectation is to see a very staggered release in various markets.
