              Im glad that not only me have overcome this problem. And also, today. Im using zenfone 5 a500cg with 1.6ghz/2gb ram variant. I used my phone for wifi browsing using google chrome(airplane mode), and my battery drains 1% every 3 minutes. So i got roughly 5 hours of browsing time via wifi and 5 hours screen on time. I just want to know that is this normal? How long does your device lasts with my setup mentioned above? Note that i didnt use power saving at all. Please respond. Thank you

                              For INFORMATION GUYS. if you want better battery backup, DO NOT charge your ZF5 to 100% ! Unplug at 90 %. Ive experienced this first hand it will give better backup. I browed using UC for 1 hour and counsume 23% battery after applying this technique.

                                    please Release the Higher mAh(say, 3000 mAh) battery & make it available at service centers for zenfone 5 so we can replace our weak battery into stronger one with some extra cost.

                                      the working speed, software, design, etc are good.
                                      but touch panel is poor. it will crack in a silly drop, its not real gorilla 3 glass. battery backup is also not good. changing display costs 75% of total price of this phone..!! this is a hidden trick of the company
