Oh, typically I will usage just like your wife if I purchase this device. Won't be play games, coz will reduce the lifespan battery and devices too.

What about the SIM Slot card? Is it 1st SIM Slot can put microSIM while another Slot 2 either nanoSIM or microSD?
Kinda very trouble need to cut/replace the SIM card (if zenfone 3 gonna to nanoSIM) due to the cost and also hard to change back from nanoSIM to microSIM.

I was on Asus online chat just now because I have a problem with my Zenfone 3 5.2in.  The problem was that the camera app will start by itself, it started 4 times while I was with Asus online chat.  Since i brought the Zenfone 3 the camera app has started by itself many times.  I wonder if i did press the camera app shortcut key without realising it, so I asked Asus chat if there is a camera app shortcut key. 

He did some checking and told me to walk in to the nearest service centre to downgrade my Zenfone 3 OS (Marshmallow 6.0).  He said that this is because a lot of users have reported bugs affecting their phone.  My Zenfone 3 is android 6.0.1 and I am very sure that the OS that came with the phone is 6.0.

I asked him which version the downgrade will be, he told me to check with the technician at the service centre.

So have any of you Asus Zenfone 3 owners came across such advise, to downgrade the OS that came with the phone to a lower version?  So is Asus releasing their Zenfone 3 with a buggy OS?

I do not think so because i do not face the problems u mentioned. Probably faulty unit, try claim warranty.

If u want to use two sim cards u have to sacrifice the sim card 2 slot, this is what i dislike but seems that most phones have this trend now.

FYI, i went to Maxis shop just to make Sim card replacement because my 2nd sim card wont fit unsure.gif
Anyway, just RM10 xD

Ya, I know. If want to put Sim card on slot 2, need to sacrifice the memory card.

But want to know is it the sim slot 1 is micro sim or nano SIM? I want to put the DG simcard in sim slot 1 if the device sim slot suuport microSIM, while my maxis put in sim slot 2 which this device support nanoSIM.

Yes, I hv this exactly maxis simcard all in one.. But the only first telco in Malaysia implement this tri-cut.

Hope other telco can implement it as soon as possible..

I personally tested, if u just are use for surf internet and social apps without gaming, it can last longer.

However, if u are heavy usage person, you still need to charge twice per day la, most smartphones nowadays also need to charge at-least once per day and once before you sleep lol hahaha..

I used Zenfone 5 before, under heavy usage need to charge three times.

Anyway, Zenfone 3 i used from 8am until 8pm with some gaming left 20% only doh.gif

FYi, i havent try with Pokemon Go yet but so far i only tried with Need For Speed No Limit and SimCity Build It.

Haha, I don't so hard core play the games.
But heavy usage for email, whatapps, browsing website.
Occasionally for Youtube, Forex and play games once per month..

Since Slot 1 can support microSIM, it's good for me not need to change to nano SIM separately.. rclxm9.gif

the phone have 64gb storage. Still not enough meh? Unless you take lots and lots of videos, it should be enough without the need to sdcard. Plus, when you us sdcard on your phone, it will generally slow down your phone because it need to constantly scan the card.

64gb for me is enough to run without sd card expansion. I mean, I will probably not get sd card and use dual sim instead.

But I can understand why some people would still need expansion. And if they need dual sim at the same time, then it's a problem.

You never know one day (if you really bad luck until don't have road) if your phone accidentally drop inside the water or any faulty of your devices that cause cannot turn on your device, then you will understand why I need additional memory card.

You might feedback to me nowadays everybody can use Google Drive or Dropbox that can backup all your files to the cloud anytimes. But sometimes some of the confidential documents, we won't put the files to the cloud server coz everything been monitor through the cloud storage service provider.

On cloud storage, let's not forget that the free version of Dropbox gets you 2gb++ while drive is limited to 15gb... Unless you pay for it...

This is why I don't do cloud backup. I will take my chances with manual backup (by copying to a hdd via cable connection with pc)

Oh, now latest free Dropbox only 2gb++?? ohmy.gif
It's kinda too small, just like back to old school century with 2GB flash drive..

I won't purchase the cloud storage, expensive rate payment based on USD rate.. shakehead.gif

Well, there are people who offers services to increase the standard free storage quota. But that should be a separate thread (search and you will find)... And anyway, the max free quota is limited - no way it can rival the paid quota...
