        The camera hardware sounds promising but much opinions said it has bad camera, can anyone tell me? I planned to buy this one for camera and battery.

          Is the build number (sku) 'ww' for asus users in india? Or is it something different?

            Initial impression was very good. Prolonged use proved otherwise. - AMOLED screen gets burn in after a couple months.
            - Camera is terrible even though it's the main selling point; it's grainy, the zoom doesn't matter much, the lens cover isn't sealed and fills with dust, camera is terribly slow with awful low-light.
            + Battery is the only redeeming feature, can go 2 days on a single charge. Though haven't managed to refill anything else with reverse charging.
            - No 5Ghz wifi / NFC / IR, the wifi is constantly disconnecting.
            - 32GB is actually really small these days considering Android takes about 8-10 GB for itself.
            - It's slow. It was fast at first but this thing can't handle switching between YouTube and chrome without something crashing and needing a reboot.
            - UI layouts have changed so much after updating that it's no longer customizable like ZenUI claims and most things are white which makes burn in worse!
            - Looks good on paper but is actually really sub par, every region with 32 gig model got completely shafted cause it's straight out of 2012, not 2017.

                greetings everyone,
                does anybody know how to make the clock on the lockscreen appears? seriously it's driving me crazy.
                what I've tried:
                - updating system to the latest os and zenui
                - factory reset
                - changing theme
                - enabling weather apps and other widgets

                          Anonymous, 12 Dec 2017Dear GSMArena, please put a review for this phone. Why did ... moreThis phone's battery life won't let you go down :)
                          I constantly get around 9h of SOT with heavy gaming use, and around 12h of SOT with light use (YouTube, Browsing).

                          The low-light camera performance kinda sucks on auto, but you can tweak it freely with manual mode. On daylight, it's not the best I've seen but great nonetheless.
                          UI also sucks, I use Nova Launcher instead.

                          Performance is so-so if you use it for gaming, no issues for daily light tasks though.

                          The screen... (u can check my comment from Dec 2017)

                          Design-wise it's definitely not original nor grippy on hand (slippery that is) and leaves smudges when you touched the back. But it's quite solid. Though, I always have a case for extra protection.

                          DTS audio is mostly for gimmicks, my old ZenFone 2 can do better with earphones (DTS makes me can't manually change the bass anymore D:)

                          Speaker is mono but it's quite loud, no distortion even on full volume.

                          I rarely took a selfie, but when I do it turns out quite good, but don't expect it to do well on low-light though.

                          No NFC and that's kinda sucks, fingerprint recognition isn't the fastest around but it's accurate most the time.

                          Alright, hope this mini-review helps you :)

                            Lauryboy, 20 Jan 2018I'm appalled at gsm arena for not reviewing this phone whil... moreYea, such a downer they don't review this phone. But hey, super wide-angle vs zoom lens there. I love super wide-angle more but this phone's endurance doesn't let me to look at other option :)

                              For the guys who had their replacement, did you update your system? From marshmallow to nougat? Im currently using my second zoom 3. Asus replaced my first cause of whiteline. I kinda read here somewhere that whilteline appears days after upgrading the system. I could say its probable because thats what happened to my first. I havent upgraded my replacement yet cause the whiteline could appear again. Any insights that could help? Thanks

                                  Very interesting phone. It has a big AMOLED screen, excellent grip, fantastic camera with dual lens and a really big battery.

                                  The only flaw is that GSMArena specs are wrong. It doesn't have WiFi 802.11ac. Just 802.11n. Saddly to see it connecting to my ac router at 72Mbit/s datalink while my very very old Samsung Galaxy S4 does this ate 433Mbit/s!

                                  >:-(

                                      I believe the white line issue indicates a more serious innate defect with the screen. I had the white line appear for no reason but I did not send it to ASUS since it did not affect function. But 6 months into using, I dropped the phone from bed height and though it barely cracked the screen, the whole screen faded to black. When I tried to recover files through USB, it would no longer be recognized by any computer. Hours later, it started beeping randomly and couldn't be shut off by holding power. So in essence, completely wrecked from a minor drop.

                                      I've owned older ASUS phones that had a completely cracked screen but still functional, so I believe the fault is with this model.
