I am using this phone for close to 3 years now. A powerful performance device with worst build quality, and poor screen.

It has never lagged, got hung a few times due to network(data) unavailability.
It heats up real quick if you are playing online or heavy offline games.
After 2 years Battery performance goes down significantly low.
ASUS has already stopped providing updates for this model.
There is Lineage OS available for this model. I would recommend using that for better life of the phone.
The Build Quality is worst though. The Screen is not as good as expected, and Camera does not seem to perform well under low light conditions.

      Great phone ! Highly recommend, based on my own experience. Had it for three years now,
      and it has never failed me. The only thing I would change is the plastic body - my next phone will definitely be an ASUS , with a metal shell.

        Lasted 2 years with me. It has a great performance for its price but the durability of its part is questionable. 1st, the front cam stopped working, 2nd the power button plastic chipped off, and 3rd, the charger doesn't charge the phone properly.

          Yeng, 15 May 2018What do you think is the best and fast charger for zenfone.I've tried my friend's Samsung S7 charger and it charged really fast compared to my generic charger that I bought from a local store

            Do not recommend.
            After 1 year it stopped working. The phone turns itself off in out of the blue. Low durability for its price.
            However it has a great performance in its processor, depending on what you use the phone for.

                I had mine for over 2 years. No problems at all. Great cell phone for a very reasonable. Depending on the use, battery can last up to 3 days which is a lot more than many other (More expensive) phones. Unlike many others, it has dual SIM and a dedicated memory card slot (Which means that you can use 2 different lines AND a microSD at the same time. Many will share the slot between second line and memory card). Android customizations are great (Unlike LG for example). It includes many useful proprietary Apps. I'd choose this phone over my company-supplied LG G5 (Unusable without a Drawer-App) every time. I spilled water on it (Several times actually) and never had any problem. Complains about it are ridiculous. If you can't keep your cell phone out of the toiled, the problem is not the cell phone...

                      A decent phone for the price. Battery will last all day if you are not a rabid user. Volume button placement was annoying. Not water replant, at all. Baby slobbered a bit on the phone & it started being wonky. Decent as a teens phone or back up since its now 3 years old.

                            A very good phone for the price, volume control a little awkward.

                                        jeffo, 09 Mar 2018Does your Zen2 screen go black when you put it to your ear... moreThat's how proximity sensor works. When you put the phone next to your ears, screen automatically goes black. But after you take away from your ears back, it will turned on back. But if it doesn't, your proximity sensor is the problem.
