Last week Asus has announced a striped down variant of its highly popular Zenfone 5 (see review), the ZenFone 5 Lite or A502CG. Last week it was announced in Philippines with no word on global launch, but it seems company is taking Indian market on priority basis as this smartphone is now available on Indian online store, Flipkart at Rs. 8,999. At this time only Deep Black variant is available on Flipkart. It seems Flipkart will be its exclusive store like we had seen in other Asus Zenfone’s.
