Here you will get brand assurance. as far as my experience, whenever i query anything to their customer care, they responded well. Of course they are giving quality hardware. Yes sound from speaker is little low but quality is fine, generally we used to listen songs through headset and sound quality from headset is very good though the build quality of headset provided is not that great but sound production is good. Use audio wizard. iF STILL YOU WANT TO INCREASE VOLUME THEN U CAN USE APPS FROM PLAY STORE. Phone looks amazing. Battery improved a lot after system updates. Till now they given 4 system updates. GAMES ARE ALSO RUNNING FINE WITH IT. Camera is awesome at this price range. Good decision.

                      litz, 05 Aug 2014The 16gb is better as its more faster compared to the 8 GB :) both models have 2 GB of RAM and have no difference in performance. only internal storage is different i.e 8GB and 16 GB.

                        I love the specs.. and the price is good. and seen it personally but the build quality aint ok.. i think if you accidentally drop it would be finished as well.. Just my thoughts of being too light..

                                  hello guys, i need you opinions please, would it be more wise to buy z5 worth 16gb/2gb ram than 8gb/2gb ram? i've seen some opinions elaborating that 8gb z5 performs well than 16gb, if so, how could it be?

                                      I have Zenfone 5 since 1 month and I am loving it. I have seen lot of complaint regarding its battery life but for my case I dont have any issue. You need to update your system software which will fix the power consumption issue. For me without using wifi it take 20 hours to drain out.
