          debp is the 1 trolling. I own the device for 6 months and Im not satisfied with its battery life. I agree the device can perform well in heavy gaming and videos but the battery cant keep up with it. I have to disable a lot of apps just to be satisfied of not having to charge 2x per day. 5inch 3100mah next time then maybe ill reconsider... for now don't buy this phone

            AnonD-291211, 16 Dec 2014There is no bad issues. Most people are trolling. Only downside is little bit small battery co... more@debp try owning one instead of reading the manuals and you will feel like its a waste of money. Asus Zenfone 5 Battery life is way too low for a 5inch phone compare to Lenovo. I regret buying this unit just bec I trust Asus. with laptops yes but with phones not for now esp the 2100mah battery which is like crap

                I just purchased this zenfone 5 last dec 13 and there's nothing I can say negative except 1. the cropping on photos because the display is too large and there's no other crop options. 2. The music player because if I am downloading songs those will still need to be copy from the file manager then paste on the music folder and 3. BATTERY life is not good but technically majority of the smartphones nowadays has the same issues on Battery Life because of the apps that are installed that tend to be easily drained but POWERBANK is a back-up in case this happens. Overall, I really appreciate the performance, the price, and the style. Practicality wise Zenfone 5 is a superb phone for me :-) #justsharing

                  does ur latest kitkat update still gives the issue of Keyboard being not visible?
                  Are there any other bugs which this latest Kitkat update has?
                  I am yet to upgrade my Jellybean to that. Hence requesting you to assist me with the information.
                  thank you

                          One more thing.. If you are a heavy gamer then battery will not last for you. This is a phone for people who wants to do things quickly without any hassle. Runs so smoothly. you can install many apps due to 2gb of RAM. My advice is not to prefer external SD card for app installation, bcoz it may drain battery sooner.
