                  Zenfone5 users can download "Nokia Here Maps Beta" from Nokia's website. It's good to have offline navigation app. Nokia maps r best for offline use.

Go to settings and open storage. On top right corner, you can find a USB icon, clicking on which you will get the options to connect to the computer :)

                              everything is fine except the battery.
                              if you are using whats app the battery wont last 3 forth of a day and if you are using navigation the phone will get very hot and the entire battery will be drained out within less than 40 minutes. pricing is very good but always carry a power source otherwise you wont be able to enjoy this phone. also the speaker of this phone is below substandard and that can be managed by using a headphone but the battery - NO SOLUTION -

                                I am having the greatest time using this phone. My previous unit was a Huawei Y300, though, which accounts for a great leap in specifications, and explains perhaps why I find this phone so fast and responsive, ha ha. I'm still on 1.18.40.9 firmware though, and I have no wish to upgrade to KitKat. And it's good that the phone doesn't detect any OTA updates, because it's working so fine for me now, that I'm glad I'm not being "tempted" to update via a system update notification, and risk suffering some of the bugs that plenty of other users are experiencing. Great pricing by Asus, too, and it couldn't have come at a better time. I was in the market for a new phone, and I'm glad I purchased this one.

                                I almost missed out, though, since supplies of the Zenfone 5 here in my country (Philippines) constantly run out. It's probably because other phones in the same price category are 99% of the time "under-powered" when compared to this one.
