(By 14th April, 2017)
I've been using it for 1 yr and 9 months.
So far so good, everything is still working really well. (Camera, fast charging, etc)
Capable of playing heavy online games like;
World of Tanks Blitz, Avabel Online, etc.
on high settings and no lag/stutter.
Still getting 45-60 FPS on those games even after almost 2 years of usage.
(Depends on device heat)
Tips for those who complained about battery;
1. Prevent auto start of apps.
(i disabled most of mine, not the one where you disable apps though, only the auto start), saves a lot of battery/RAM.
2. When youre not using it (work/class, etc), switch to Power Saving or Super Saving mode.
Leaving it on Performance mode drains battery.
3. Disable/uninstall bloatwares
and dont use third party "clean up" apps
ZE551ML has an excellent mobile manager that is optimised for this device given by ASUS
(Again, saves a lot of Batt/RAM)

This phone is a product of shamefulness. After a year using it, my phone almost in the brick of her death. Random ghost touch, battery draining so fast, bad camera, become so slow each day, and many bad things happens with this phone. While my other phone, SONY last longer than her. My SONY survived 2 years and a half before she gets battery problems too.
The customer service is freaking bad too. No problem solving after contacted them. Instead of solving this phone problem's ASUS decided to make a new phone. Which I'll never buy again. I think ASUS shouldn't make phone, they focus on making motherboards as it's their specialties. But who am I kidding, ASUS never will hear their customers.
Will go with other brand after my ASUS RIP, which probably not too long.

Guys. I am posting this after usage of one year and four months.
I started to realize problems after 6 months.
Battery drains faster
Speaker noise
Restart
Camera became poor.
Sim 1 slot failure
Phone slows down
No sound from speaker now.
No service center near by.
No way to go for warranty.
It has got only in major areas. I have sony, samung, LG Vivo, Nokia etc service centers near by. But no Service Center for ASUS. I have to travel 60KM to reach ASUS service center. Others service centers just around 3 KM radius. If you are planning to buy iy. Please dont.
I am from India - Tamil Nadu

It's not the best smartphone but it is still useable i mean very useable for 2017.Got no problem but the Android 6.0 MM update gave me random crash and i need to restart my phone and slow connecting to mobile data or Wifi.I got no hardware problem for 1 years usage(Got mine on February 2016).It is a crazy phone for the price u got all(Since Zenfone 3 came out) i mean fast charging,USB Otg,Micro SD up to 128/256GB,and Dual sim.I very recomend this phone beside HTC one m8 or Sony Xperia Z3 if u need some waterproof and better build quality

AnonD-657837, 02 Apr 2017This phone was great when i first got it. Then once i got ... morethe problem wasn´t asus itself but intel...I believe Asus started on the wrong foot by developing a partnership with Intel from the beguining. They realised that thats why the launched different versions with qualcomm chips and they doing a lot better now.

This phone was great when i first got it. Then once i got my apps installed, it was slower than my old Droid X. Then the screen went bad around the edges. Ghost touches everywhere. My main problem is how quickly Asus dropped this phone and quit supporting it.

Anonymous, 30 Mar 2017Can u plz tell me how does the intel atom going on Cause... moreIntel Atom Z-series is focusing on efficient usage such as good for multimedia, fast network, smooth on performance that suitable on our daily usage. But u still could play any intensive games but it can't categorised as massive performance for gaming today cuz this Intel Atom's version that equipped in this device was an outdated processor right now. But their performances still competitive with other high-end devices out there
