The contents of the leak have yet to be confirmed, but assuming the information is accurate, speculators say Asus is likely to officially announce the budget phone at MWC this year. Asus's new device may lack powerful hardware, but that will matter little to the target audience: social media users.

Renders and specs of what appears to be the Asus Zenfone 3 Go leaked online on Thursday, detailing a number of features that Asus is hoping will give its phone an edge over Chinese handsets like Oppo and Meizu. This will likely be one of the last phones in the Zenfone 3 line (which includes the original Zenfone 3, the Zenfone 3 Zoom, the Zenfone 3 Deluxe, and many more) as Asus is expected to release the Zenfone 4 in May.

The Zenfone 3 Go, which expected to sell for around $150, will feature a 5-inch HD display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 SoC, 2GB of RAM, 16GB internal storage, a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera and a 5-megapixel selfie shooter. Leaked promotional materials highlight the phones live streaming capabilities, with dual MEMS microphones for noise suppression and a five-magnet speaker for improved sound quality.

Asus is bringing back the budget “Go” line that appeared in 2015 in the form of the Asus Zenfone Go ZC500TG. This earlier Zenfone Go was designed in the likeness of the Zenfone 2, but this time with an aesthetic has been updated to be more in line with the competitive smartphone landscape in China.
