        paul, 20 May 2015What about the heating issue how do we solve that?No solution available, because zenfone use intel processor. Even zenfone 2 does heat up too. Aroun 40 dgree C. In my personal opinion, heat does not really matter since it does not cause internal nor external damage, its software issue, bloatware which is really annoying that sucks up most battery. But if heat bothers you so much, maybe ull intrested on buying xiaomi or oppo , motorola. Butbin the end, my heart already belongs to asus haha

                @rp, 20 May 2015If i change battery problem are solved ? No unless you change it with a bigger battery (which is impossible to get). The problems of batery drain of ZF5 comes from the battery size itself which isnt big enough to support 5 inch, multiplied by the power hungry intel cpu. Lets hope theyll make the battery life better in lolipop. Its our only hope (besides rooting)

                            To avoid battery problem, Guys I found one good solution. 1)In setting-developer option, Go to GTU rendering option.click on it.2)download 'Shutupp' APP from app store. It stops the background data battery usage. 3)download 'Greenify' APP. Make sure that It always be ON(setting-accessibility-greenify-ON).
                            Try these three steps.there is an 99% improvement in battery life.
