can i know if there is any shops i can get the zenfone 6 instead of getting online? would like to test out the phone first before purchase as well...

u can go some some telco shops or Best Denki/Challenger, they would have demo sets.
the smaller shops in far east plaza wouldn't have demo sets, but let u check it after u buy. but their prices are little lower than telcos

Funan Centre has a few shops with actual working sets.

How is the battery drain during overnight standby? Tia. Played with the demo set. It is heavier than I thought.

Just got my Zenfone 6 from M1 via delivery.
After dinner and open up check see the phone itself aand saw that the metal finish below the soft keys is very dirty, anyone knows how to clean it up?

PS: Anyone knows where I can find physical shop to get a tempered glass screen protector for the phone? Need the person to help me install, tried 1 ended up breaking it.

Just got the Asus zenfone 6, played the phone, it is fast and no issue but the volume is too soft. Any way to increase the volume when playing Youtubea. Thanks for the help.

If there are two sim cards, you can choose to make a call from either one, likewise for sms.

There is an option in Call or Message interface for you to choose which card you want to make out a call or sms.

There's the Audio Wizard app comes default in the phone, perhaps you can adjust the audio there or choose an output mode best suited for the circumstance.

I'm not sure what happened but my Z6 went kaput while charging with my Sanyo powerbank.

Send for repair at Asus +Serv at 313 Somerset and a minimum wait of 5 days for repairs. Quite a long time for repairs.

Sent in on Monday and still waiting.

kaput on charging from power bank - still covered in warranty ?
5 days wait - many of their phones failing/less staff ?

 

[xtemujin]

Should be under warranty.

You can check the repair status.

i hope it gets repaired soon
btw..like there are some articles about failure rate of laptops by different manufacturers, is there something similar about phone makers? comparing how often a phone made by apple/samsung/asus fails or needs repairs ?

 

[xtemujin]

No idea about it.

Nearly 2 weeks and still waiting for spare parts.

Cheers.
