thinking to get zf5 ori 1.6g/2g/16g to test out

tried redmi 1s for a week but 1g ram seems a bit limited therefore sold it : )

btw, what's the best color for zf5? looking at red/purple/gold

seems like ori set dont have purple?

its subjective depending on individual..Black is nice..gold n red need add extra rm30.. vmad.gif

Is it normal that the bottom 3 touch buttons for Back, Home and menu don't have back lit. Very hard to see the button in dark room environment.

Thanks

performance i think quite similar,
but 2.0ghz vs 3000mah battery is more balance setup than the 2.0ghz zf5.

if 6inch is more practical to u, why not take zf6.

Reporting... Zen6 on 1.17.40.16
Successful rooting using RootZenFone-1.3r.apk
Prev app ver got issues but not latest 1.3r.
Straight forward method of rooting ur Zenfone.

> AdFree rclxm9.gif
> 2Lines for Whatsapp v1.2.4 (me 3 accounts !) rclxm9.gif
> TBackup thumbup.gif

Q.. does Xposed framework compatible to Zenfone.? hmm.gif

Btw.. why I choose Zen6 over Zen5.
I started wif Zen4 and was impressed by its looks and overall performance. So cheap but no slouch definitely. Hey, it got 2 sim slots which later made me put aside my HO M7 and start using Zen4 only. Later I started salivating for PixelMaster Nite mode. drool.gif
Tho earlier I prefer 5in but considering certain issues reported by Zen5 users here especially SOT, so I decided to gamble buy Zen6 instead. No regret after that. Ya, its huge but I'm not tiny either.. so ok lar.

I still believe Zen6 is a better buy compared to Zen5 even if u got small hands. Price wise very marginal.

Zen6 SOT up to 6hrs w/o Pwr Saver activated, screen brightness medium, when I mostly on wifi and browse net for news etc.
On 3G, I get about 5hrs SOT.
I really don't understand why some still complaining regarding it pwr endurance. 5-6hrs SOT not enuff.? hmm.gif
