Thanks @ jjj & ara for your replies.
I guess jjj is right. The call quality is not upto the mark. Calls are really rough and noisy. In simple, it is not satisfactory. Quite bad compared to htc wildfire that I'm using. The sound wizzard is not useful during calls.
For those who are complaining about battery,
this is what I did, I updated to the latest jelly bean i.e 40.10 followed by factory reset. Then, I went to settings, apps, preloaded apps and disabled google play services, google play games, google play music, google read or something etc etc that were not important to me. Now my onscren time is 6-7hrs with 2g data on. This should give me a 1+ day of use (depending on my usage). I use hike at times, i'v downloaded du battery saver, opera mini, greenify(which i hardly use) and skype.
Guys dont forget to close the apps after use them else they will stay on and keep draining ur battery.
Kitkat drains ur battery much faster and i'v heard that you cant disable google play services in it. So dont go for a kitkat update unless you really need it.

Jack, 21 Nov 2014Can somebody please reply my post??? Help me with my sound problem guys ! On the app menu select the sound wizard then you can change the sound setting. At first you will notice it was set to saving by defoult then you can change it to music as this will set it up to louder volume.

I just bought this phone and it was really good. It runs smoothly and it can also run HD games/videos w/o lag.

I bought my Zenfone 5 A501CG last Sept, 9, 2014. I received a software update (KITKAT) from ASUS, a month after, since I trusted ASUS on their upadate, so I install it and upadte my fone, after updating the fone shuts down and cannot open, it keeps on re-starting. Can you help me on this?

Just bought my Zenfone 5 2 weeks ago. At first I experienced problems like I experience lag during multitasking (im a heavy user), batt gets drained very fast especially when using Mobile Data/Wifi and surfing/chatting using chat apps. Apps also crashes, the camera also had some delays. The UI was sometimes crashes too (i still have it now) But after of updating to kitkat and some system updates it was all fixed. Now I don't have any problems so far. I am pretty happy for the update. Now I am afraid of updating it if ever a new update comes. My suggestion to all who's thinking about buying this phone, you should buy it. Its definitely worth the price.
