i'am also facing a heat problem from battery while playing any game,
is there any solution to solve this problem,
or consider returning it,
as it has an li-ion battery not li-polymer as you all can check
that by dialing *#*#4636#*#* on battery information, type-li-ion not li-polymer asus is fooling us man

                    Hey guys,

                    im using this phone for almost a week now. all the specs are true and believe me, its really really fast! the pictures are really good!

                    the only problem is the battery. yes its the same as the normal android phones. drains fast. but like what i did to my previous phone to save consumption, i solved it. heres how:

                    * i rooted it (rooting gives you administrator power to manipulate your phone to its full potential) the consequence of rooting is, your warranty will be void (but dont worry, you can unroot it :))

                    * install SD MAID by downloading it from play store. this app can manipulate the (default) running apps to freeze or stop. if your phone is not rooted, all you can do is kill the app but cannot prevent it from autostarting again and again.

                    Now my phone lasts more than a day with my daily usage, 3hrs music, 1hr watching video, texting every now and then, wifi for face book for 2 hours, asphalt8 for 1hr. and i still have 10% of battery when i woke up. not bad isnt it? :)

                    hope this helps. God bless everyone!
