                        Dear Users,

                        Kindly suggest me, whether to buy Zenfone 5 or not. I am a moderate mobile user, will the battery sustain the whole day??

                              Most people are asking the same qtn again and again. here are my battery usage statistics.
                              1 day 18 h on battery
                              Cell standby 33% 1 day 18 hours
                              Phone idle 13% 1 day 16 hours
                              Android 12%
                              Whatsapp 12%
                              Screen 10% 2 hours 20 minutes
                              wifi 6% running 1 day 2 hours

                              This is the new zenfone z2520 processor, am on 2g and brightness to minimum. Those who are having issues with battery really need to check their signal strength and background app running. use brightness only when required.

                              It should run for around a day.This will drastically reduce if you play games, use 3g
                              and have full brightness. Bcoz screen is the major consumer.

                              all depends on individual usage, for heavy users the intel processors might not be the best in terms of battery.

                                        Hii friends,
                                        I just want to know whether Zenfone 5 comes with 1 gb ram. A friend of mine had got a zenfone 5 as an award in office which was ordered from flipkart. its been 2 months and suddenly when i noticed the phone, it lagged a lot , so i checked the ram, and i go to see that the phone is having 1gb ram. But when i checked flipkart in specification it showed 2 gb ram. The phone was brought at 9999 INR and is a 8gb variant. Another friend of mine has brought 8 gb variant at 7999 INR and that phone consists of 2 gb RAM.
