ZF6 Users,
How long can battery last with data plan on 24/7?
*
Mine full charge from wake up in the morning till sleep time at night.. but if you're heavy user might have shorter battery span than mine. ( with optimized mode on )

Any Zenfone 6 user facing this problem?
Any solution? icon_question.gif  icon_question.gif  icon_question.gif

The problem only occur with flipview case? I use naked ZF6, dont have that problem.

Optimized mode = battery saving mode?
Average your battery last how long?
9 hours?
*
Roughly 9-12 hours depending on my usage that day.

Yeah Optimized Mode = Medium battery saving Mode

Zenfone 5 vs Zenfone 6, here's what I noticed immediately.

Different:
- screen size real estate. Some people say nothing much, but to me the difference is great. (i would love this, makes a really good phablet, with a stylus input, especially if rumours are that the z6 input is very accurate, like Wacom? Not sure. I didn't had time to really test this.)
- Camera. Not sure of the difference, but both should be good. Nothing Z6>Z5, except in numbers, but bigger numbers should be better still, even though the camera modules are from Sony's own tried, tested and proven lineup.
- Battery. the extra 1000mAH is worth it. ( i need that extra juice)
- The feel. Solid. Zenfone 5 is solid, Zenfone 6 just screams "hold me steady!", but i'm willing to go for zenfone 6.
Same:
-Same 1.6GHz, 2GB, 8GB ROM. At least I was told like that lah for Malaysian set.
Anyone with a Zenfone 6 wants to trade with my ZF5 (1.6GHz, 2GBRAM 8GB ROM), i'm willing to negotiate. I bought mine during Raya in Kota Kinabalu. (i'm from Sabah by the way)
. To be exact, 27th August.

I think I saw someone wants to trade zf6 to zf5 here before.. mine is zf6 but dont wanna trade it atm ( really lovin it brows.gif ).. maybe you can try trade it here.. all sabahan so can cod test kaw2.. rclxms.gif

Nak tanya lagi... blush.gif
U install Xposed via adb sideload or normal xposed install?
Reason 4 asking coz I read somewhere got user softbrick when install xposed but later need install via adb.

Me takut2 coz my Zen6 now ady cun2 set but lack Xposed touch.
*
I've tried both method and both seems to work nicely.. Tried xposed only for few days though because I cant get the statusbar to be transparent and Android L statusbar is not working for jellybean doh.gif . So I decided to go back to ori ZenUI brows.gif , apart from that I didn't notice any problem. I will try it again after we get Kitkat. rclxms.gif

Might I remind you that anything you do with your phone is your own responsibility.. haha sweat.gif

hei i want to ask,is that true that zenfone 4/5 is overheating like hot or warm when u use it for long,like playing games or when we just so social media apps and browser?
i want to buy it,but got issue like this maybe i must buy other brand sad.gif
*
Sure got hot/warm la if you play games long enough.. i think most phones do.. but to say overheating, i think no la.. asus is not new in this territory, they will not make a smartphones that cant resist heat. No problem using social network or browsing, you can use it all day long as long as your battery permits it.

Though.... it is a little bit heat but no reason to be alarm. Im sure it can survive atleast 1 year of gaming. (Warranty ends)

Okay, what XPosed Mods are good for this phone?

I tried the magnet one (since i'm not using flip case, but a normal bumper case (i think its called bumper case), so I don't need the magnet.

Salah set, had to restart the damn phone and disable. LULZ.

Try Xposed GEL Settings.

why ori asus zen6 is 859 on directd while ap set is only 669? what the main difference?
*
the difference is AP is import set while ori is local malaysian set. AP has 2 year warranty by third party company and local set has 1 year direct warranty from ASUS malaysia. but for me, don't care much about AP/ORI.. it's the same phone minus the localization warranty and some spec difference.

i see. so what the difference ar in spec, are the AP set using qualcomm instead of intel?
and one more thing if i buy AP set, will i have the automatic update from asus for their hardware?
*
not much, you'll get 1.6Ghz zf5 for ori set while AP set has different variation with a maximum of 2.0Ghz. the chipsets is basically the same whether you get AP or Ori depends on the model (ex: a zf5 LTE will get qualcomm snapdragon 400 instead of intel atom and clocked at 1.2Ghz.) I dont think you'll get auto update from Asus for AP set but it dont matter because it is soooo easy to manual update.

so.. see your budget la.. if you want cheap then AP is the way to go but if money is not a problem to you then get oppo find 7? thumbup.gif

one more thing which better ar for phone smoothness and performance:
buy a 32gb internal storage or 16gb with a sd card?  hmm.gif
*
hmm.gif for me 16gb is enough.. i dont play games on it. again depends on your preference.

QUOTE(adam ixa @ Aug 25 2014, 06:38 PM)
This question maybe inappropriate asked in this thread, but between zf5 lte n xiaomi mi3, which is highly recommended?
