      guys please don't buy this mobile, camera is just pathetic, even with 100% brightness level, phone looks very dull, battery will be drained just in 2 hours of use.... I m very upset as flipkart refused to replace the mobile. moto g 2 is best option to go.

I'm planning on having Samsung note instead... battery is very important in a device and apple iphone makers understood that part. I don't mind paying for a phone if its has eye candy specs and a known brand.

                      hi tomazz, how did you manage to last you're battery life up to 3 days. should i have to update my phone one by one so that i will not miss any new features or debugging or battery improvement? sorry for a dumb question, this is my first use of a smartphone.

                            Don't buy this phone if u would like to access & spend many time in 3g net in a little bit poor network area then u r zp5 does not allow to access 3g net
                            & there is no user option to choose wdcdm/gsm/automatic.
                            Auto switching mode of network is very very poor.
                            Quality of camera is avarage.
                            Asus zp 5 doesn't fulfill the expectation
                            as we think.lots of lagging.believe it it's my own experience by using A501CG after using 72 he's. Plz.go 4 any another brand ....
