I READ A NO. OF REVIEWS BEFORE BUYING, FOUND NONE OF THEM BEING PERSPECTIVE BUILDING AND DEEP....BOUGHT THE FONE AS A CALCULATED RISK AND FOUND THAT THE FONE DELIVERS TO MY NEEDS.... HERE IS THE COMPLETE REVIEW (ALSO COMPARED WITH YUREKA)

1. battery: drains fast...needs charging everyday unless on standby...standby with wifi on is battery prudent...u see the battery cycle improving. ALMOST SIMILAR TO YUREKA WHICH HAS SLIGHTLY BIGGER BATTERY, BUT A QUADCORE PROCESSOR AND 5.5" DISPLAY...

I have used Asus Zenfone 5 for around 7 months now.
Only problem i faced was battery draining quickly due to constant use.
Bough this one yesterday (21st Jan).
Using it for a a day now and have seen battery backup better than the original Zenfone 5.
The basic difference between this one and the original one is that they have different processor. This one comes with 1.2Ghz processor which actually helps for the cause. It consumes less battery due to under-clocking and certainly offers a decent...

Update after 1 month of usage ----- Still the same awesomeness. Pictures are crystal clear and MICROFILM option is simple superb. I am loving that a lot. Battery performance is almost good. on 3g usage continuously i am getting 8-9 hours of battery life which is almost satisfactory. Google launcher is 10000 times better than Asus launcher.


As usual flipkart rocked with speedy delivery and thanks for it.
Zenfone 5 .. Extremely stylish finishing and bigger screen size.
I feel there are 4-5 s...

I recently bought a XOLO Q1010i and it was worth buying. Now I needed one more for myself and there came this ad in newspaper and I immediately started researching ASUS Zenfone 5. I on the same day preordered one. Hats off to flipkart. I ordered on Friday and got it on Monday. Now coming to the pros and cons:
1) Buttery smooth performance. Absolutely no lags. Games are running fast.
2) ZenUI is something different and nice.
3) Superslim and beautiful body. However its a bit slippery.
4) Gori...

such a gr8 phone everrything is fine i bought it in 7100. of 10% i think its a good deal for me.
look wise 5/5
design 5/5
sound 4/5
touch 5/5
camera 5/5
speed 5/5

I bought the Zen 5 -16 GB variant. I don't know that I paid extra Rs. 3000 just for additional 8 GB memory was worth it or not considering no other specification difference. Wait to hear from those who bought 8GB variant. But the phone is excellent at the cost offered. More so may be for 8 GB variant. I can't give a technical review. Phone just looks, applications, photo, video the best in this price I can get. I just skipped Moto-G, I feel lucky with this device.

My review may not so helpful for the people who are buying the product , but certainly it cannot be ignored ;
the first 3 things drawbacks that i encountered with this phone was :-

1) The battery life if small , the battery gets drained to 50% within 5 hours without any usage of any power consuming apps , games. For a 5 inch phone 2110mah battery is genuinely very less.
2) The phone gets heated up with continuous usage of 30 minutes .
3) It does not support OTG ( On The Go Media Transfer).

I had just bought this phone yesterday.First reaction->absolutely amazing.This beats moto g in every aspect.Though moto g comes with a quad core,this is still better because it has 1.7ghz(Intel atom) compared to 1.2 ghz(Qualcomm snapdragon 400).Intel is always the better choice for processors.Screen size is quiet large but it comfortable to operate using one hand due to low width.Its thinner and longer.Both phones are quiet good looking.Both have an above average performance with the camera,b...

I've been with this phone since JULY last year . i've had an awesome experience with it along with some things that upset me BUT with remedies.

AWESOMENESS!!
1) Dude it's 9999/- .
2) Camera both Front and Back (Get your hands on ISO nd EXPOSURE VALUE you will love the camera ).
3) Touch it like u Play with soft hairs.
4) 16GB internal .
5) Quite handy.
6) Intel processor.

THIS PHONE IS FAST!!!

I'm UPSET because :
1) I don't get a longer battery life. LIKE SERIOUSLY!!
2) PLAYBACK SOUND.
3)...

I was using a ZTE Blade G2 V880H for the past few months and decided to switch to a phone with more RAM, hence got this phone for myself.

Processor:
Intel Atom at 1.2 GHz is "ok" for most of the stuff expected from a phone worth < 10K

2 GB RAM:
I am constantly playing "Clash of Clans" and "Call of Duty - Heroes" in between other phone operations, so far did not experience any hangups or jitters.

Internal Memory [8 GB]:
A little over 5 GB is usable which is nice

Display:
5" display @ 1280 ...
