        Many people said that this phone,s closest rival is the Xiaomi Redmi note. I've seen first hand that this phone is better in every way against the xiaomi redmi note. This phone's major drawback is only it's average 2110mah battery when compared to the redmi note's 3000mah battery. Gaming is smoother in ZF5, camera takes better result in ZF5 eventough xiaomi note has 13mp camera. In my opinion, this phone is still the best at mid-range. If your concern is the battery life, just buy Xiaomi power bank rather than buying xiaomi's phone. That will save your money hehehe. My ZF5 is the 12gb/ 2gb ram 1.6Ghz variant. THIS IS NOT BIASED COMMENT. I'M TRULY SHARING MY OWN EXPERIENCE COMPARING MY ZF5 TO XIAOMU REDMI NOTE. Feel free to contact me since i really love discussing smartphone topic. :)

My asuis zenfone 5 is working properly it is underwarranty and just purchased on november 2014 so in only 5 months i have faced battery issue its discharging by 8 hours now went to syscom electra barrackpore kolkata service centre they have charged me Rs250/- for checking the phone and Rs 1450 for chaging the parts.

            reddy, 11 May 2015its very worst battery drains with in (4-5) hrs i request plz slove this problem as soon as what usage did you perform? did you play games constantly, just let the phone idle,or making calls, texting and browsing?
            in my experience using ZF 5, i get 3 hours of non-stop playing HD games like BATMAN TDKR, ASPHALT, NOVA 3 from 100-0%. if i browse internet i can get 3,5 hours of non-stop usage. when leaving the phone idle, i can get 2 days. when doing work activities that includes whatsapp, bbm, texting, making calls etc. i can get 14 hours of usage. When watching video non stop,i can get 5-6 hours of screen on time. The conclusion from is the ASUS ZENFONE 5 battery is PRETTY DECENT!!. Mine is the 12gb/2gb ram variant. So, what kind of user are you? are you the gaming, working, or entertainment type of user?

                i have it a month ago.. and it performs well and fast without lag but the battery kills it. i use it for 1 day and a half.. i never reach 2days in normal use.. i dont know if lollipop update will improve its battery life or make it worst battery draining.

                Phone is great, but like i said.. battery is so poor and kills everythings great about this device.
