    sgs, 11 Jul 2014there is no radio in all 3 sets, can anyone pls reply why?At least the version that I have, has FM radio.

    However the headset or headphones must be plugged in for it to work, as they also act as an antenna.

      Jud, 13 Jul 2014thanks.. but i heard that zenphone is having some problem with the battery life.. is that true? I would not call it a battery life problem. If you use the screen or camera a lot, battery will drain faster. Other than that, I've found it last longer than Note 2 in the same usage pattern, and Note 2 was praised for long battery life.

      Obviously there could be some application that sucks the battery dry from a bad coding, but that is not fault of the phone.

        Asus ZenFone has a supersaving mode, or something like that, where the network connections will get cut when phone goes to sleep mode.

        It is in power management.

        I have data on all the time on ZenFone 5, used to use Wifi when at home and cellular outside, now some days use cellular all the time (3G 850/2100 MHz TrueMove-H in Thailand) and have no problems at all, it's not turning off and it's reasonably fast. Much faster than Galaxy Note 2 (same provider, just different phone number)

                          Jud, 10 Jul 2014Hey guys m planning to buy a phone, but cant decide between ASUS ZENphone5 and BlackberryZ3, ... moreblackberry is only good for official use.Most of the apps wont work and also many of the apps wont be free,you have to pay for it.Go for asus zenfone 5 ,if you are not only having an official use on your mobile.
                          Z3 is a good mobile,but some restrictions in the apps may make you feel bad about it.
                          don't know whether it is true,i heard that whats app is not working on blackberry.

                            How much time it will take flipkart.com to deliver this model on a pre-ordered basis. I have already pre-booked on 10th of july but still they've not started the process to deliver.
