in other country like china and Russia they have 2ghz dual core with 1gb ram so they are different not know much about them. or they are rewiew unit and they lag also better go with 2gb if 1gb variant is there better to avoid it.check 1gb asus zenfone 5 at foneareana reivew.

Hey guys!Planning to buy this phone (Zenfone 5).I found the specifications to be pretty impressive with the given price (awesome).Although i have a few questions for the people who already have the phone and been using it for a while.
1.Battery:How long does it last with heavy gaming?Does it last a day with the internet on 24/7 along with other usage like music and apps?What do you guys think about the overall performance of the battery
2.Gaming:Does it lag while playing high end games?Does it heat up while gaming?
Any other issues?
Thanks in advance guys,waiting for your responses :)

Prasad, 17 Jul 2014Friends please let me know, in specification its mentioned that there is no Radio. Is it true ... moreIt certainly has FM radio.
Note though that it has only 1 decimal for frequency though.
So 102.5 MHz is OK. 102.25 is NOT OK, you can only do 102.2 or 102.3. It doesn't have the second decimal.
You need headset or headphones plugged in as they act as an antenna. Reception is quite good, with decent headset at least. Sound quality is reasonably good.

I heared that some issues in this phone like
1. Much dead pixels on screen
2. Some problems with facebook
3. Bluetooth not work properly
I have 2 and have played with many more, haven't seen any with dead dots.
Facebook problem can be fixed by installing version 10, or upgrading OS - it's under downloads on Asus site. Download file, unzip it. Plug phone in PC with USB cable and open the new "drive" that appears - dump file in root folder. Unplug the cable when done - it will notify you that an update was found and ask if you want to install it, choose yes. That's it.
No problem on Bluetooth with Jabra headset and iPhone dock bluetooth receiver. Not sure what problems you are referring to. Connections are not dropped and quality of sound is quite good. Didn't try more than calls and streaming music through it though.
So no to all 3 you mentioned.

Zaroon, 17 Jul 2014Hello Guys!! I request to kindly help me to clear the follwing doubts regarding asus zenfone 5... more1.yes zenfone 5 support move to sd card but only with some app and for game obb file must be place in internal storage to just installing asphalt 8 and modern combat 4 consume 3.5gb space so for gaming go with 16gb if want more than one game but you can place the data in sd and when needed move in internal i am doing same internal transfer much fast around 24mbps.
.
.
2.yes connect mobile to laptop and tv also to mirror the display in laptop use software PC LINK.
.
.
3.3hrs asphalt 8 consume only 30% and battery last for a day very easily if you are an heavy user.
.
.
4.yes it support viber whatsapp etc
5.for document reading amazon kindle and ofifce pre install for edit use 3rd party app for fine.
6.surfing internet is great experience not feel any lag.
7.nexus 7 1st and 2nd generation is big success and asus is famous for his motherboard so service center is not problem in Hyderabad because its a famous place but in Andaman Nicobar service is a problem.

Please let me know comment asap , i m going to order it today only..reply only if you are very sure about it or u r a user...thanks in advance
Yes, there is an option in the Settings under Apps to prefer internal storage or use SD card "if app supports it" - so it's up to App. But in my case majority had no issues to use SD card. There's also a Move command in there where you can just select apps and move them to SD... or back.
