I'm been using Zenfone 5 for about a month now so here's what I have to say...
When it comes to graphics and speed Z5 is superb despite being in the price bracket of PHP7,000+ in my country, the Intel feature of Hyper-Threading makes it even more notably, but then again the price of having this speed have its draw backs which is the issue of over heating if you are a heavy user... I experience this while playing Clash of Clans + 3G Mobile Network.
Now the other problem that I'm facing in this device is the battery... it constantly drain while in stanby mode, from 100% battery to 99% it took about only 15-20 mins. for it to drain and sometimes less. But on the brighter side still it's a good phone for its price, that's why we have Power Banks to compensate for it or simply bring chargers if you are in the office or etc.
Now lastly, before I bought Z5 I've been reading comments in this page for about 1 month before I decided to bought it, Zenfone 5 is a good phone for all those who want to buy it, it also depends on the people on how they perceive it... but for me the this phone is worth having than any other android that will cost you a lot even for Iphones but the features that you will get is the same. (but not fingerprints features like in Iphones.. anyway its actually a trash and pretty much redundant.)
Android v4.3

Android 5.0 Lollipop has been released recently, hopefully this one could fix the battery issue. The question is when to our phones and will asus be letting us experience Lollipop? What do you think?

I restored my phone, wifi issue solved, double screen lock, not yet. I got another problem, I know it's because of Kitkat restriction. Before I restore the phone I copy the pictures on the computer, after the restore, I put it back to the designated folder. The folder can't be moved there, so I made a new folder on my phone named New Folder (the folder can't be renamed) and put the picture. After that I noticed the "New Folder" was changed to "Camera" by itself but the problem is it can't be read on the gallery but can be in file manager. So instead of just going to gallery for those picture, I have to go to file manager, i found this annoying. Can somebody out there help me out. Please?

[deleted post]Download on your computer, or with a program in phone, to music folder in internal memory or on SD card, then use WinAmp or Music to play files.
I usually copy them from PC to SD card, either directly or with USB cable, into folder Music or Videos. They are automatically detected by both Music and Winamp.
