Sorry, cannot comment on this one as I use my Nationite N2 as my primary music source. If battery backup not an issue I may skip my N2 during my daily commute.

The nearest device would be my lumia 520 without any eq settings but not sure of that...

There one audio wizard app in which you can select the differnt modes like movies, music , speech, gaming, recording & smart mode.

I have got the Asus Zenfone 4 and I like it. The UI is smooth and simple. It is fast, camera is excellent for what it is, sound in earphones is good.

What I don't like is the loud speaker which is not that loud. There are some software bugs as well related to audio wizard, auto rotation and camera depth of field mode.

10/10. Zenfone 5 has auto brightness so you don’t need to change the screen brightness manually when you go outdoors.

Another thing i noticed, when making calls if you move the phone away from your ear to type something the light automatically comes back and when i bring it back to the ear the light goes off automatically. i found this feature very useful.

Zenfone 5 A501CG is fully loaded for 10k.

I dont understand why people even take this as a consideration while reviewing. What do they expect, a 5", IPS LCD, with 290PPI, powered by an 2110mAh battery to outshine SUN!?

Hi guys I'm a new member of Zenfone 5 :)

What more can I say, I'm loving it, specially the big screen, though getting used to it :p

For now, I'm facing two problem
1. For incoming calls, sometimes it shows a slider and sometimes it shows only Accept / Reject button. I love the slider more, but I'm unable to guess how to set it for all calls. Any idea? [Update: Ok this I figured out..!! If the screen is locked it shows slider else it shows button]
2. Whats Next is continuously crashing automatically which displays a popup all the time, it's a bit annoying. Tried restarting the phone, but it didn't helped. Any idea?

Is 4.4.4 available for Zenfone? It's showing 4.4.2 on my z5. And did check update, but no more update is there.
Thats what i am thinking :|

EDIt: checked...its upto 4.4.2.
there were some rumors of it getting Android 5.0 though...sometimes in 2015.

recently got a sample of Zenphone 6 and the battery life was awesome :D

What does the error message say? I never encountered such issue.

[MENTION=120490]sumonpathak[/MENTION] Yeah I heard that too, Asus confirmed Android L in zenfone series.
[MENTION=140016]Reloaded[/MENTION] Well, it's a generalized message like "What's next is stopped unfortunately" or something like that.
