AnonD-298283, 28 Aug 2014does asus is really going to relese kitkat for this zenfone 5,then when?????????????/It is very near.
Some other devices from Asus were just released with KitKat, and have similar configuration so it could be very soon. ZenUI has already been readied for it, so were most of other apps.

Review after using for 7 days :-
1.Display:- just awesome.every icon /picture text appears so crisp,im in love with its display.
2.Lag Free:- This phone does not know what is lagging in smartphones. with its 2gb RAM and intel processor with hyper threading tech it runs butter smooth.
3.camera : its 8mp cam is simply great.different modes are interesting like low,light,time rewind,selfie etc.front cam is also v good.
4.Battery :-some reviews are saying less backup, but i was happy that it runs whole day after using it moderately for calling,net,games.
5.OTG Support:- immediately after swing on i received notification for updating. now my PEN Drive is supported.i was MORE THAN HAPPY for this feature.
6.Value for Money : Remember its not a set which cost you 20k(which its worth for) . its only 10k-8gb model.
Every one after seeing this phone guess it to be 15-20k as its a premium looking device.
My advise to those who are thinking to buy is to not think twice.Not listen to the negative reviews. even S5 has lot of negative comments.
ITS a MUST BUY PRODUCT.

I've never experienced any WiFi dropouts (I do a lot of music and video streaming) nor do I experience any GPS issues (I use Waze on a daily basis).
I'm on stock firmware but I don't think those two are firmware related based on the TS steps most people did on the forums here and everywhere else on the web.
My variant is 1.6ghz 16gb internal + 2gb ram.
If you encounter any issues mentioned above, do not try to waste your time troubleshooting as a lot of people did that already had no luck as it is not a firmware problem but a hardware design flaw.
Go to the Asus Service Center and have your phone replaced.
