    How did you update to latest version :

    1) OTA
    2) Manual download from Asus website

    How is the battery backup and any issues with KK after updating

      Don't want to complain too much
      Enough is enough with Zenfone 5
      Too many useless preloaded apps, some are really power hungry which kills the battery life
      Keeps popping up nsfw (not safe for wife) screens and weird sms
      Trying to root and delete those apps finally ended up with the Zenfone 5 being possessed (seriously) by the ZenUI which deleted apps from PlayStore at will, regardless how many times you reinstalled it.

      Really have to throw this brick away.
