Was really impressed with the specs of this phone and performance for the first 3 months, however, it seems as time has gone on this phone seems to regularly "flip out" and go into this boot loop thing. This results in a system reset to be performed and data loss , functionality loss TIME loss!! etc. I am now sitting looking at a phone doing it's bi-annual "flip out", except this time I cannot seem to get to recovery. ASUS has been a huge disappointment in the phone arena. I got a year and a half use out of this thing, but I will not buy ASUS phones again.
Having asus for almost one year in Germany
And one thing If your phone needs repair it takes lots of time to fix it, between three to eight months.
Therefore if you buy it don't count on support team.
am, 25 Jan 2018hi asus user..asus zenfone 3 ZE552KL vs. asus zenfone 3 deluxe ZS570KL..which one more better ... moreI do had both zenfone 3 5.2 inch and zenfone 3 deluxe 5.7 inch. Both takes pretty good lowlight but zenfone 3 some kind of lower noise than zenfone 3 deluxe. Both have 4K video recording and both have detailed 4K video but much noise in lowlight.
hi asus user..asus zenfone 3 ZE552KL vs. asus zenfone 3 deluxe ZS570KL..which one more better for low light camera and recording 4k video? someone pls advice me
that's not true I have used this Asus phone and it's really good, just because you had a bad experience doesn't mean you should discourage others who are having a good one.
Asus becoming bad now a days. Please dont buy Asus. My phone take 1 month to repair. Now problem with mic board and home and recent apps button. Not even reach 1 years. Worse.
Purchased in Nov '16, received 12/28/16. By April I experienced several issues with the phone rebooting continually and not able to turn on. Somehow through a factory reset, was able to limp through until August when I had same experience. ASUS Cust service told me the speaker was bad and so they couldn't repair phone until I paid $122. I paid although the speaker was not bad that I was aware of and I needed my phone. I was sent a photo which could not be identified as my phone. ASUS supposedly replaced the battery and the mother board, basically did a complete rebuild or so I was told. I was guaranteed the repairs would be covered for 90 days. Fast forward to Nov 2017. Experiencing same issues plus screen went black and was inoperable. Send phone back to ASUS repair. Today I receive an invoice for a FPC Cable, Back Cover and LCD for $251. I am sent a picture of an unidentifiable phone with a slight crack in the LCD screen. It was not that way when it left here and the packaging arrived undamaged. I am not sure how I could damage an FPC cable which is an internal part but ASUS customer service seems to assert that.
I cannot recommend this product for these reasons and for the poor warranty support/coverage of this phone.
Please note that this phone (and all ASUS phones) does NOT have MIRROR link compatability!
kooi, 18 Oct 2017Is that this phone will heat up high, when during talk time or when using gps?Not at all, unless you are using other "heavy" apps on the background.

Recent firmware update burn my charging port. Happening most on Zenfone 3.
I have the phone for 10 months now ...
I use it for personal and work, pick it because the promises off hardware and reviewa, coming from Note 4 so comparing :
The good:
- the camera is better but consumes much more battery,
- perfomance is better, but in my normal use lasts half a day 5/6h, Note 4 did last at least 9h...
- yes, it does has a lot off memory, but it manages very badly... Using in work, photos, GPS, pdf, emails, net, past 3/4 hours jams constantly...
- it fails on basic, phone ... Network is worst than Note 4, my partner in same carrier in same place has is iphone constantly with good network and uses facetime, me, can't even maintain a stable voice call.
- voice call fails, when I'm using both hands and hold the phone with shoulder...
- software UI ... Is nice for those who use Facebook and such ... For a real use as work terminal is bad ... The contact search sucks my galaxy S had better phone software...
- lattly I need to carry a batery bank with me so it can last my day :( ... Sometimes gives error on SIM connection and reboot is needed..
- file management is under Note 4...
- sensors are very bad ... Proximity had made many calls in my pocket... GPS sucks vs Note 4 ... Compass error prone... Gives error keeps oscillating... I use it for work just payed for calibration apps and all, just sucks...
Resume :
Has better hardware than Note 4 ... But sucks at all fields ... Except on photo and is in 3/4 hours from a reboot, in use, 6/7 hours ... Takes long to take photo and software just jams the phone sometimes...
Clean handset with equally clean signal for a phone thats all metal with no pantie antennae lines.
The FM radio pick up is excellent you almost have to be a professional photographer to get the right settings modes for crispy pics.
This device reminds of quality builds from blackberry which i still have along with Fiio A3/E11K audio amp i get crisp clean sounds that finish like a bottle of smithwicks.
Is that this phone will heat up high, when during talk time or when using gps?

Dyep, 24 Jul 2017Does this phone have same problem with zenfone 3 max..touch screen is unresponsive when playin... moreI am using this phone for 1 year now, and I have no problem whatsoever. I have more than 65 apps and the phone can handle many apps at a time. The response of the phone is super fast and opening of Apps and closing of Apps is very fast. Closing all the apps with one button is fantastic.The battery is not bad.

Only in rare moments it is irresponsive (without the sensitive mode activated, because you can use the screen even with gloves if you want!). For that specific game, it may be a problem with the game itself... idk...
Upender, 20 Jul 2017Is it dual sim active or dual standby? Here mention standby and active also, confused, any one... moreI have this phone for almost an year now. You choose if you want it to be active or stand by. Easy!
