Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 hands-on review

10 May 2018
The ZenFone Max Pro is here to make a stand. This time, ASUS is taking the fight to Xiaomi, with a feature-packed device that should make even the demanding users happy. Whether it's an 18:9 display, a Snapdragon 636 processor, dual rear cameras, and a massive 5000mAh battery - it's got it. The ZenFone Max Pro is also an Android One device that comes with a stock build of Android 8.1 out of the box and a promise of timely updates.

      I've seen a few people complaining about wifu connections being poor with this phone, sometimes it wont even find people's home wifi. I was willing to buy one, but now im not sure...

                          Biju Abraham, 27 Oct 2018I purchased two units of Zen fone Max from Flipkart on 20th... moreFactory reset. Use a 2.0 charger (try another charger). After that, you may have the odd dud. Approach ASUS support directly if the supplier is useless.

                            Please do a indepth review.

                              I purchased two units of Zen fone Max from Flipkart on 20th of October. One mobile phone for my nephew and the other for me. But my phone started the error ie: it was hanging if I receive any missed calls or text message during any calls. The mobile needed to restart make another call. The Flipkart excecutives suggested many things to rectify the error.But the error was not resloved. Battery is taking too much time to be charged and with 6 gb ram it is not fast as my Lenovo p2 wich is having 4 gb ram. I think it is not worth investing money in Asus Zenfone max pro m1. The return policy of Flipkart is so confusing and they are trying to show away the customer with confusing reactions.

                                AnonD-727802, 18 May 2018I think so No 3/4 is better than 6

                                3+4= 7 vs 6

                                      sinto, 09 Aug 2018I will go for xiaomi still because of infrared.Infrared is cool. I used it ONCE on my Redmi Note 3 and it worked great. But then I did only use it once. It's like a useful gimmick. Hey friends look I control my TV with my phone and they're like yeah that's cool. Then they go home and I pick up the Logitech Harmony remote...
