I have this strange sensation of wanting to trade in my z5 (t100j) with a zenfone 6, although i don't know malaysia has 16gb ori or not.

Looks good but only 8mb. Since imported i think you will need manual updates. I can recommend you to a shop with this around rm670 or so at lyp...jus pm me. I owned zf5 ori 1gb before and changed to zf6 at this shop. Also bought my wifa a zf5 2gb therr. All is great!

I know many of you are asking..so thought I could share a bit of the Zenfone usage. I've had ZF5 (Ori MY) and then changed to ZF6 (AP) for the bigger screen.

I use this, have taken calls, Tango, Viber, Phone calls...smsed as usual...viewed the news...I have about 4 alarms set and let it ring so many times before dismissing...just normal use without thinking. I played a few games while on the lrt. I also listened to some songs yesterday whilte travelling on the LRT. Did some Mobile data work this morning checking the news...and this is my battery status at this tim (see pic).

I have the 2 sim cards installed and offer these tips:
- turn on data only when needed.
- turn on wifi only when needed
- Screen brightness not too high...about 30% normally unless I must turn it up....then after I use, back down

I bought this unit about 3 weeks ago, and I'm happy with it. I did experience about the same level with my ZF5...could get about 1day and 4-8 hours per charge of 100%.

Enjoy!Attached Image

UPDATE: Battery power with normal use...

Just wanted to give you guys an update, so I ran my battery down. Used it just the same normal way and even used the GPS function when travelling from Setiawangsa to Bukit Bintang (LRT, then GO KL). Take a look at my previous post for more reference.

Maybe we could collect the best tips here to save power?

Take care and the fone is good! Get one now!

(Zenfone 5 1gb MYORI, Zenfone 5 2gb AP, Zenfone 6 16GB AP)

Update: Normal use..phone calls, viber, tango, what'sapp, I like the Pool games to play when idle, used data connection (when needed), wifi (when needed), GPS when travelling (as per above), took many pictures (maybe 100 or so at 13MP and also turbo mode), Listeniing to my songs at the highest level (heheheh), screen shots to show you guys...I use flipboard as well....RSS reader, saw a few videos.....just a normal use thing. I 'm sure many of you use them way more than I do! smile.gif so your mileage may vary wink.gif

One thing that my have made a difference....I left it on charger all night..started at 100%? I need to test this...you guys too....

Mostly I just:
- turned on wifi, autorotate, data, bluetooth only when needed.
- adjusted the brightness down, but up when needed.
- clear the open programs by swiping every so often
- I don't have the "smart saving" on at this time...funny huh?

My fone is AP set, not rooted or else...

Good luck guys and please share your tips
