ASUS is gearing up to release the ZenFone 2 this spring. But that's really just the beginning of the story of this phone. And we'll help tell that story, for sure. But the first chapters are going to be written by you, the members of Android Central.
We're giving you a chance to get your hands on the ZenFone 2 before just about anyone else. Fifteen of our most prolific forums posters will be among the first to get to take the ZenFone 2 out for a test run. They'll get to know the ins and outs of the phone and give the skinny before anyone else. But they're not the only lucky ones. We're looking for 15 more to give the ZenFone 2 a go. That's where you come in. So that's 30 lucky winners testing out a top-end ZenFone 2 — with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage! — before just about anyone else.
Think you have what it takes? Read on for the details.
First things first: Let's congratulate the first 15 forum members (some of whom are members of our volunteer staff) who are getting their hands on a ZenFone 2:

Congrats to you all! Now for the next 15 ZenFone 2's to give away. We're going to make you work for it just a tad, but it'll be worth it.
