Morning all, have 2 questions for current RN5 user, how the GPS signal, have problems or not? Then other question is, how about Telco signal is weak or not on the reception. As my wife RN3 is weak compare with other brand phone, and also I also read somewhere that Xiaomi phone is weak on Telco reception, hope that RN5 doesn't have this problem. thanks.

Previously with RN3 SD i do not have issues with GPS , using dual sim + memory card. Used XOX, Maxis. Digi was initially alright, as time passed by, GPS locking is harder. Umobile was the same.

Then now with RN5, GPS is okay and fast locking. Sometimes lost the GPS lock due to network switching from 4G to H+. Damn umobile. Even missus's Huawei P10 also the same.

Have split decision on RN5 or Mi Max 2. MM2 best for battery, RN5 best all rounder. haih...

Serious?
Kinda attracted to sd636, 5k mah and pure Android features (hopping for wireless charging)
Was willing to pay at most 1.1k (1.2k with wireless charging)
If 1.5k, meh..

Waiting for launching at Indon and India today, then will know the rough pricing over here.

Wow! That is a serious competition. Asus produces good quality phone. Just that their after sales service is lousy. Also, it's not as popular as Xiaomi. Therefore, getting third party ROM or ROOTING will be difficult. Nonetheless, it is a contender especially when it is going to be pure android. I do not like MIUI!

edit: damn it! Now I have to wait again to see if Asus's phone is better. I really like the pure android being offered and 5000mAH battery! Gorgeous!

Same here.. damn.. haha

You got it the the other way around, why is it getting cheaper as it is getting higher spec'd 😂

Yea, the other way around, tomorrow let's see the official MY set price. The battery size is tempting for the ASUS.

WTH? That's an old model phone. We are talking about the new Zenfone Max Pro M1. It's different from Zenfone 4 or Zenfone 5. There is even a Zenfone Plus Max M1 running mediatek SoC which was launched early this year. Don't be confused.
*
Yeah, so sorry, wrong in looking at the phone naming. Sorry guys.
