May i ask if this phone is gonna be decent for gaming(open world game)? I know that because of its size it could potentially heat up real quick but its not like im gonna play with everything set to high. Just casual gaming of open world games (i know.. Casual gaming with open world games sounds stupid enough but to play on a phone this size is just ) and i saw other comments about this phone's flaws. Can someone elaborate more on how this device is bad.
Because im planning to purchase this but im holding off for now so id like some insights on those who know more afnd those who have this device.
I dont really mind the storage since i can simply transfer file via flashdrives and im not heavy on videos and pictures and im not reallt p

Kedar284, 30 Jun 2021Rooted already?No root is needed. I've done the same and the battery life is good (standby needs optimization tho). Also there is no overheating issue.

It saps too much internet data and battery life. Also, it needs to be connected to the Internet all the time and not all places have a stable Internet connection. That is why offline FM Radio is still relevant in 2021 and beyond.

I am afraid that zenfone 8 will disappeared like zenfone 7. Asus have a weird selling strategy they announced a phone and then it goes silent. You know about this phone but you cant find it in your country. They should acted fast before china company like xiaomi shift their focus on compact phone.

Anonymous, 26 Jun 2021How can you tell which model is international and which is US?Asus is not a Samsung with Exynos or China OEMs that needs to have international and US exclusive variants. If they'll be available in US, sure the compatible 5G bands will be enabled.

AlexTechster, 26 Jun 2021Hey guys, do you experience overheating issues with the Zen... moreIt’s a common widespread problem among smartphones with the SD 888 regardless of the brand. It’s a hardware issue not a software one. Qualcomm will never admit that its SD 888 is a rush chipset just to compete with its peers. Better wait for the SD 888 plus or get a smartphone with a SD 870 or 865 plus. Not because a device is new it’s better overall. That’s why I do recommend buying last year’s flasgship 5G devices - they are already tested and have significant updates.

My zenfone 8 is still super snappy even after dialing down the CPU, GPU, RAM and thermal limit. It doesn't overheat aswell.

Hey guys, do you experience overheating issues with the Zenfone 8. Mine is warming up quite a lot after only 2 minutes of video recording, and after two or three more minutes it prompts me to shut down the camera app. If you have, do you know how to fix that...eventually?

Kk, 16 Jun 2021Is this phone have a IR blaster? Unfortunately, no. With that, it will be just a perfect phone.

Liked:
* Silver colour.... looks absolutely stunning & premium.
* Sound output from dual (balanced) speakers is amazing.
* Live clock app. & ZenFone's own gallery.
* size & weight.
Disliked:
* Battery life....appeared to be dropping rapidly - probably needed available optimisation function.
* Fingerprint scanner... did not work very well.

Hi guys, those who have it: what do you think about the camera performance? For me that seems to be the only weak point. Thanks in advance!
