I m having zenfone 5, i found it most awesome ever. I m using this phone since 1 year, no lagging, no hanging, efficient running. I must say it is highly optimised phone. 2 gb ram never ends, normally only 800 mb ram is in use.. If we are going to play high HD graphics games, even then ram will not get drained.. Intel CPU never get slow.
I used to use many applications at a time, but still it runs very smooth.
Camera is awesome, we can compare its 8mp pixel master camera with 13-16 mp camera of other phones.
For good battery performance, use battery optimiser powered by intel.. It will definitely work, i am using this.

This is only the phone in which android version can be downgraded without any problem. I have done this, while using lollipop, i downgraded the version to kitkat, and again upgrade to lollipop latest firmware.. still after this, phone is running awesome,

          Hi my phone hangs whenever I get a call, the call list or contacts won't load for a while. I have to restart the phone every time to see the latest call history.

          I have no major third party apps except facebook and watsapp. Let me know if you have a solution.

                                My Zenfone 5 is about 7 months old. A few months ago, would not recognize Sim and it took about 10 weeks to be fixed. Now it makes a loud static noise when answered - they said I might only have to wait 2 weeks to fix. Each time they do a factory reset and it takes days to get preferences set up etc (besides losing your recent calls/sms's etc). Honestly, do yourself a favour (as I am going to do) and buy yourself something reasonably reliable. It is just not worth the bother of being without a phone for extended periods

                                    my Asus zenfone 5 didn't function right after it turned 1 year from date of purchase. I am impressed by the screen, no scratches. however the battery is the number 1 problem I encountered until the unit was crashed. it got drained so easily, when playing games or using mobile data, unit HEATS UP as well. I need to disconnect from Wi-Fi or mobile data as it sometimes auto-shuts off because of the heat. before it ended its life, the unit was only hanging up, delayed response and unable to boot up immediately. Somehow, i appreciate that i enjoyed the unit in a year :)

Luckily I had the waranty so there was no cost. But still to date I dont know what was the problem. I think my az5 will die again soon since I see same simptons again.
