          Can someone tell me? From 7am to 12am how many battery left? Mine is about 27% with casual gaming like (C Royal, Angry Bird 2). Huhu

            AnonD-565637, 28 Jul 2016Hi @Diont Read your post where you said it was probably the Marshmallow update. Is it availab... moreIt depends on what build number of your phone. Sometimes is the system or app problem. Few weeks ago, I received a notification about updating my phone so I just click don't update. After I updating my asus support app then I check my updated status and there is no update are available. Sounds weird. So after waiting for afew days, the update notification pops for the second time and this time I directly update it. So make sure you update all apps first.

            About the build number, they are afew asus phone build number. Some received the update early and some are very late. My build number starts with WW (world wide).

            You can try update it manually! I will always work! First, Check your build number at system update app. Secondly, search at Google asus Zenfone max manual update. Next, make sure the file that you're going to update has the same first front capital later exp (WW). Finally click download.

            Please check on YouTube..

                        Hello Goodmorning Everyone may i ask something :)

                        This phone is great for gaming like the NBA 2k16?
                        If you playing the NBA 2k16 it is Good or Not?
                        Thank you for answer my question

                          Indeed a very good smartphone & a smart choice to use the ONLY STABLE SOC snapdragon 410 which has very good remarks in maintaining heat and consuming less power( were as other SD such as 615, 800, 801, 808, 810, all tend to heat & results in THROTTLING causing to reduce speed to prevent damage to the smartphone)
                          it's mainly for all social networking as it will never let u down in battery backup hence u can stay connected most of the time compare to other phone which die early, this phone can give u the SCREEN ON TIME of 11 hours (normal mode)& possibly more in power saving mode. Both auto start manger & power saver apps r awesome it does work perfect for ASUS.
                          It does play Asphalt 8 in high graphics good but not fine.

                          Pros:
                          1) awesome battery life.
                          2) consistent speed no throttling.
                          3) very less heat max I noted was 38 degrees while playing games for 2 hours.
                          4) Above average camera.
                          5) multitasking ram management is good.
                          6) reverse charging
                          7) OTG

                          Cons:
                          1) heavy 202 grams.
                          2) takes 5 hours to completely charge from 0 to 100%.
                          3) occasional lags of 2 or 3 secs which can overcome ones u ROOT ur phone...
                          Conclusion : If u hv never used an IPHONE then u will never regret it buying + Max is superior in battery backup.

                                So, I got this thing in March, so it's been @ 4.5 months. Can say I'm very pleased with it. I had some issues at first when the SIM was going out now and then but it got fixed with the 6.0 update. It get really hot when you play games like Hearthstone, Need For Speed No Limits, Asphalt 8 or any game with high graphics. Also, Pokemon GO's GPS is a bit off, atleast mine. In the first 30 minutes of play it's ok, but after it gets hot it doesn't know where it is. Nvm, so the phone is not good for games, and the battery goes out pretty fast when you play. The pro's are that you have plenty of battery life while stand-by, a big screen which is good for videos/movies, and other apps work just fine. Camera is pretty good too (if enough lightning). I hope this helps some of you.
