    just got a system update last night 9.45pm Malaysia time. Build ASUS_T00J_WW_user_1.16.40.50_20140731_xxxx
    It said "Enhancement to overall performance". This is also the 4th system update since i bought this Zenfone 5.

    After 12 hours of use and tests theres no more Youtube app and Real Racing 3 bug(connection constantly lost), better battery life, and phone is overall smoother than ever. I noticed most pencil and pens with metal tip can now be used as stylus too. before this it cant. touchscreen only reacts to metal stuff, gloves(fabric and rubber), some cloths, glass bottle too(lol) and legit stylus pen. Im using Autodesk's sketchbook app to draw because i love drawing.

    Thats all my opinion and feedback for now. looking forward to hear other's too

          The zen fone 5 is simply fantastic.The phone response,display camera awesome.It appears ASUS is a very serious player in the smartphone market.A little work on battery required otherwise in the sub Rs.15000 its an amazing phone.The WiFi is very strong can catch the signal where other high end smart phones also fail to catch the signals.

                    AnonD-291247, 05 Aug 2014i want to buy this phone,can u tell me about its performance,is there any problem in it ? Very good Performance. But Battery life during 3G usage is less. Otherwise it's good and do not forget to update it regularly. Asus is providing system update if there is any problem at least as of now.
