I have a white asus zenfone 5 and im inlove with its design. It has an FM radio app thank god. The ram's 2gb with 8gb internal memory. Theres only 4.99gb left with the 8gb internal memory cos of the phone's OS. Thank god for sd cards i was able to transfer all the bigger apps there. I actually can transfer almost all the apps that i downloaded from the google store. I love this phone. I love how slender it feels. Its very affordable but it doesnt look and feel cheap. The only complain i have is the battery life. It drains fast. Im connected to wifi all the time so if i use it continuously (no games just texting, no calls, just plain surfing, chatting, facebook, twitter, just basic stuff) it will probably just last for 7-8hrs. Thank god i have a powerbank that i can use just in case it drains completely and i have nowhere to charge it. So to all owners of zenfone 5 INVEST ON POWERBANKS cos you will need it.

I was on the lookout for a budget phone, which does not look phoney. After lots of research, hours of checking out reviews, I purchased Zenfone 5 from Asus. I was skeptical about this phone, but boy I was proven wrong. A lovely phone, having a premium feel, looks classy and simple. Its lightning fast, responsive, has a crystal clear cam & great HD capabilities. The battery life as depicted in reviews, aint that bad. On a full charge at 8am, minimal 3g usage, minimal music or browsing and chatting. After this i was left with 70% battery after 12 hours. 3g usage and gaming drains your battery briskly. But, this is a factor in all android phones. Overall, given the price it is a great phone.

Denny, 07 Aug 2014Buy Xiomi Mi3Yes Buy... Do some super computing stuff with that phone... other wise it's no use. it's a super Chinese phone. If you use two number then buy two super Mi3 phones. Then you will be king.

Switched from a premium Z2 to a Zenfone 5. After a full day, am pretty impressed with the Zenfone 5. I am a basic smartphone user, and the Zenfone did not fail. Its fast, and responsive. Ran Antutu and got a decent 19645 score. Battery is a wee bit weaker but then it could just be me. At only RM580, its a real bargain. Good work beefing up the RAM to 2GB Asus.

Apart from the probable OTG support ,not sure why people are dying for the KitKat?
Also the advantage of this 2GB is only for gamers else on a normal course we run maximum with 800MB.
So ,if not a gamer,the 2GB is a useless resource for which we paid?
