Bought this on promtion for 159 Euros, saving 70 Euros. Looks and feels superior in quality. IS 3 RAM in Europe. Closest best quality rival, Xiaomi, was 249 Euros. The Asus uses a key to release a small holder for 2 chips & SD card. Rapid charge is, er, rapid. Only gripe is charger connector partially fits wrong way up, so presume gently forcing for that reassuring click will damage, or wreck, the connector.

Purchased the phone for 200 EUR.
Overall loved the phone in proportion to its price, but a very bad surprise set in when the battery died only 6 months after I bought it.

I purchased this phone. I must say, it doesn't have 3GB of RAM, it has 2GB (and yes, i checked the variant and it is indeed ZC520KL).
Leaving that aside, up to know it's been running great, however my other phone, a Xiaomi Redmi Note 5a lite (y1 lite) has the same chipset and runs even better, it is specially noticeable when gaming, seems like Asus got a bug or two in 2D rendering as there are some non-heavy 2D games that lag a lot in this Zenfone but run smoothly in the Xiaomi phone.
Regarding image quality: I'm amazed, picture in this screen looks reeeeeeally great!
Battery life: Well, today is saturday and I've been gaming almost all day (had a busy week, decided to spend my saturday relaxing and my wife is out) and it's still at 47% battery. I've played around 6 hours and spent one more hour watching videos (and I had gps enabled by mistake all that time).
Regarding the build quality, This Zenfone is extremely sturdy, feels great in the hand. I usually ride my bike while carrying it in my pocket. My Redmi suffered from that as the phone was actually getting bent and the screen started suffering from ghost touch because of it, my Zenfone doesn't get bent at all and hasn't shown any sign of possible damage.
It's a bit sad that this zenfone doesn't have an infrared port, I can't use it as remote controller like I did with my redmi.
i hope this helps people decide whether they buy it or not.

Been using it for months now, it actually does it job pretty well.
I bought it for 140usd, among the cheapest phone in my country.
Pros:
- The most amazing quality here is its battery. At 100% battery, I've played games like pubg mobile and asphalt 8 from 7 am till 7pm and there's still around 50% left.
- Gameplay performance is pretty good as long as you don't set their graphics to high quality, and that's ok for me.
- Fingerprint feature works like it's intended to be, I've registered both of my thumbs and I never fails to unlock my phone using them.
- Charging time is also surprisingly fast even though its capacity is higher than most handphone.
- I Don't have any problem with its basic phone functions like making a call,messaging,etc. and also every apps I've installed works pretty good. Never have any problem with apps like some people claimed.
Cons:
-Some apps may have low sound, while some other apps can be very loud. for example, when i opened youtube from firefox, the sound felt muffled. But when i opened from chrome, it works fine. Pubg mobile should be played using earphone,you can't even hear your own footsteps while using speaker, while dancing line's speaker sounds works just fine.
-Dunno why, people's face almost always looked a little blurry every time i take pictures, I've messed with the settings but the problems persist.. although regular non-selfie photos works ok, but that's fine by me as I'm not a social-media kind of guy.

I regret buying this phone, using for 5 days only then the phone shutdown automatically and cannot ON after that. Send for warranty and the problem repeat again after 3 days. In just 2 weeks 2 times send for warranties repair.
