There are 3 variants of ZE551ML.
1. 4GB RAM with 2.3 GHz Z3580.
2. 4GB RAM with 1.8 GHz Z3560.
3. 2GB RAM with 1.8 GHz Z3560.
The second variant has been released in India. Flipkart is selling this particular model. Not sure about other regions.
Hope this helps.

Yep, the 2.3GHz model USUALLY costs 50-60€ more than the 1.8GHz (4gig) model.

Z3580 has also been released in India and i am using it.. I bought Asus Zenfone 2 (4GB, 2.3Ghz Z3580) from Flipkart only... It is the also mentioned in the Flipkart page (Intel Atom Z3580).... here is the link to the Z3580 phone http://www.flipkart.com/asus-zenfone-2/p/itme6pvuvfsxu5wb?pid=MOBE6PVUTMZSQNHE&ref=L%3A729938417393618866&srno=b_4
Leave it up to ASUS to make it all confusing with 8000 different models of the Zenfone 2. Going to make getting a custom ROM for your specific model a nightmare to figure out.
Several users (myself included) have gotten the 1.8/4GB model from eglobal central (£181). I'm sure there are plenty other sellers of this model. I too was under the impression that you needed to go for the 2.3GHz model to get the extra memory, but no. I didn't want to pay the extra £50-60 for the better CPU so I was glad I stumbled on this middle-of-the-road variant.
To date the 1.8ghz model with 4gb ram is the 551ml model and with 2gb ram is the 550ml model.
the 4gb 1.8ghz model is only available in the 32gb internal storage while the 2.3ghz model is 64gb internal storage.
Seriously though, on Antutu, if this stuff is a must, the 1.8ghz (4gb, cpu 3560) model scores around 40,000 and the 2.3ghz scores around 48,000 due to the better cpu(3580).
I don't see how this would be a nightmare for devs as it seems the roms for the 551ml models is the same....
Mine is 32gb, 4gb ram, 2.3ghz 3580
And guys, couldn't fine a better thread for this but what do you think is the best price/performance model?
How different does 3580 perform against 3560? Do you think it's worth going for 3580?
Or does 4GB make a lot of difference (for 2015, not considering 2016 performance)?
Currently using G3 / 2GB and want a better UI performance and less lag/stutter. Don't care about gaming performance.
Thanks in advance.
1.8 GHz model is just fine

I own the Z00AD (32GB ROM, 4GB RAM, Z3560) and it's just fine for me. Gaming performance and multitasking are great! I guess the 4GB RAM is what makes the difference here.
Also the 32GB of storage are no problem either because of the microSD expansion.
I would rather save some money and go for the Z00AD. The software is the same as on the Z00A (64GB, 2.3GHz).

Going by Antutu benchmarks,
3580 with 4gb ram at 2.3ghz = 48000 score.
3560 with 4gb ram at 1.8ghz = 41000 score.
I have both and truthfully the 1.8ghz model is no different in general use.
Up to you if you want the "Best" model out there or not....

Thanks for the reply mate.
Zenfone 2 just got launched in my country but with an insane pricing.
3 versions with 4GB
Z3560 16GB 405$
Z3580 32GB 480$
Z3580 64GB 555$
Or I can get the Chinese version with Z3560 4GB 32GB for 300$ which is of course without any warranty.
Not sure if it's worth to buy Zenfone 2 while I can grab a new G3 for 405$ with warranty.

@ultramag69
Thanks for the numbers but I generally ignore benchmarks, especially when real user experience is concerned.
Telling that both CPUs perform almost identical is encouraging though. Can you compare it to any other popular phones?
G3 is my first Android phone after lumias and I'm somewhat satisfied with its performance with some lags every now and then.

If you go to youtube there are a heap of comparison videos, usually with flagship devices, which tells you this is a good phone as it's only 1/3 to 1/2 the price.
The reviews are delivered by (mostly) impartial people though they do of course have their favourite devices too....

Wow these are some hefty prices! I would not go with the chinese version as it has no warranty. And G3 vs. the 16GB Zenfone with 4GB of RAM is actually quite a tough decision.
What about the OnePlus One? Is it available in your country and if yes how much is it?

In Oz I paid $500 for my 64gb 4gb 2.3ghz Zenphone 2 and $350 for the 32gb 4gb ram 1.8ghz Zenfone 2... That's about right....
You need to remember when you pay $00 you are talking US dollars most times and you have to take into account the exchange rate...
I've put G3 price for reference point though. For some reason, Zenfone 2 launched at a fairly higher price compared to other phones/countries.
Most expensive Zenfone 2 is 555$ (USD) compared to 300$ @Amazon. So it's quite un-encouraging to grab it.
And regarding OPO; Turkey is not an official OPO sales country. On top of that, ordering ANY phone is a no-go because if it gets spotted at the customs, it's automatically rejected, no matter what. That's valid for even 100$ Chinese phones.
So we are forced to buy either overpriced official phones or "illegal" ones which are still not cheap (OPO is inbetween 400-450$)
Someone try the new CM 12.1 on the 1.8GHz 4 GB RAM model ? Is it possible to flash it on this?
Thank you in advanced

Should be OK as long as its a 551ML model. You should read the Op's post as all the information is there...
There are two variants of 4gig model
1.8 and 2.3 .
I wanna know how much difference is there between them ?
Sent from my ASUS_Z00A using Tapatalk
The extra 2gb makes all the difference. 1.8 vs 2.3 isn't much of a factor. If 64gb and a quick charger is worth $60 to you, then the extra cpu speed is a bonus.
You will probably see the difference in gaming, multitasking and power hungry apps.
The thing is you can clock down the cpu with a 2.3 but you cannot overclock a 1.8 to 2.3.
are there?, we are talking about z551 right?, from what I knew, the 1.8ghz model only have 2gb ram, while buying the 4gb ram one gives you 2.3ghz proc. But CMIIW.

I dont see difference between 1.8 and 2.3GHz. I usually underclock the Z3580 to 1.83GHz (less, sometimes), and I dont feel drop in the smoothness.
If you can spend some more, its better you go with the 2.3GHz Model.
So Got One M8 From Ebay at Cheap Price. First Thing I Did Was To Download CPUZ and Check the device It Shows Qualcom 801 and 2 GB RAM and FULL HD Display But Shown only Three Sensor That Created Doubt So I Went To Download CPU X and Many Other Alike All of Them Showed MTK 6582 and 1 GB of RAM Even Setting Menu Shows 2 GB of RAM. I Tried Antutu and Got 43K+ Score It Shows Processor as SD801 and 2 GB Ram Tried Quadrunt Benchmark And It Gave Score of 8000 But Shown MTK 6582 and 1 GB RAM. Help Me
Highly likely to be a fake.
