thinking of letting go my fonepad 6, how much is the suitable price for 2nd hand unit? plus my charger is faulty since day 1, directd replace me with samsung charger, but already went kaput after 2 weeks, haha

main advantage of this phone i think is the big screen and dual front speaker, really other smartphone ive used cant challenge

Honestly, not sure. Gotta go by trial and error here perhaps. From what i see, transition seems to control the speed that menus appear and disappear. The other 2 not too sure @.@

Hopefully someone can offer a full/better list of affected elements.

So would you go for the zenphone 6, when it finally appears, or do you have another candidate in mind? Kinda interested to know what competitors there are for this seemingly superb value phone... Haha right now on both sides of my screen got advertisement for something called Mi3 (Mission: Impossible 3 phone?) but i still feel that the zenfone 6 is the only true alternative to our phone.

second hand value probably RM600++ since new one is about RM890

Noted, will try on every single option and see what is the effect.

Anyone want to take over this thread? I can close this one and new TS can set up a proper thread for this.. Sorry my daily routine does not permit me to be actively updates thread

Got new update, but not download yet.

Still 4.2.2, dunno what changes it bring, can't find any changelog.

Anyone noticed that this device is misrepresented on versus.com? Too many specs wrong lol...

Hi all sifu....

Been very interested in this phone recently.
Spec wise, it is very similar to Zenfone 6 (2GB RAM version).

Spec for Fonepad Note FHD 6:
- Full HD screen, 1920 x 1080
- Dual front speaker
- Stylus
- 8MP camera without flash, front 1.2MP


Zenfone 6
- 1280 x 720 screen
- 13MP camera with LED flash, Pixelmaster (improve low light condition), 2MP front
- Dual Sim support

Heard Fonepad Note FHD 6 has very poor reception issue. Still android version 4.2.2
While Zenfone 6 has issue using Facebook, camera issue. Upgradable to android 4.4

Now, both are priced very similar. (Around RM859++)

Please advise with one is better?

It all depends on what your needs are.

If you watch a lot of videos (especially HD), then Note 6 is the better choice. Full HD videos render very sharp on the screen.

If your focus is photography, then Zenfone6 is better. Don't know about the facebook or camera issue though, never used it before.

As for the Note 6 connectivity, yea, I'm still stuck using 2G most of the time. If I switch to 3G, it still drops every now and then. Doesn't really bother me much though, since my data is only 500MB a month XD

New update KitKat 4.4.2

http://www.asus.com/my/Phones/ASUS_Fonepad...pDesk_Download/

Nice! But I think I'll wait for OTA, else it will wipe all my games' progress =_=

hi.just found this thread.i just wanna ask if any of this phone owner face the same prob as me. my note 6 always lost connection to mobile network esp. when im using mobile data.can somebody tell me how to solve this.thx btw

Thanks for the info! Btw does anyone have experience using zenui (update will be using it). Also, what is the extent of impact when upgrading to kitkat, apart from game progress wipes?

Downloading 1.1gb file while researching these mysteries...

Same question here, if it goona wipe the games's progress, i think it will wipe the whole phone.
Any one can advise?

Yes, downloading firmware from Asus website and installing will wipe WHOLE PHONE. Only OTA update will retain data (at least that's what happened to me last time when I downloaded from the website).

I only mentioned game saves because they are the only things I can't back up (not without root anyway).

Contacts, SMS, everything else can back up without root.

Replied PM bro. Basically I set to 2g network and no problem. If use 3G then will keep disconnecting.

I think it actually depends on the area you're in. Some areas I can turn on 3G and it doesn't have disconnect problem until I'm back home.

I suspect modem baseband firmware cacat. Hopefully the 4.4.2 patch will fix.

Update: no it does not wipe the phone... just like a very large update. However i kinda dislike zen ui compared to whatever was used, and so i reccommend trying out zen ui first.

Hmm, previous updates it did wipe my phone.

But if this doesn't wipe then I will try. Hopefully I can start to go on 3G instead of being stuck on 2G XD
