ASUS Zenfone 2

hahaha that one i also waiting LOL

we just hold hand go buy all these phones sua

they should just adopt on-screen keys for navigation!

and why the power button at the top?! at the right or left side la!

think the rear key setup is patented by LG, thats why ASUS didn't include it at the back.

Starting from US$199. Tempting!

Design wise seems to be inspired from G3, esp the back!

I prefer hardware keys over onscreen.

And power button at the side because they made the sides thinner.

Asus says that it will be available in March 2015.

Maybe will be available in Singapore April or May.

Really like the Zenfone series but the battery is a real letdown.

Battery still fixed and non-removable for Zenfone 2 ?

i don't really like hardware keys though.

the zenfone series have them; and gives no flexibility. e.g. the back button is on the left. benefits left hand users, not right hand users.

having software keys and the ability to cutomize the layout (e.g. on LG and Huawei phones), more flexibility and cater to different needs of users.

but for the price, i think i can close one eye!

i also know there are people who think onscreen keys take up unnecessary screen estate. like 5-inch display become only 4.7/4.8-inch of viewing estate.

Yes still non removable battery.

Asus should increase the battery capacity to 5000 mAH.

haizz, was a perfect phone until they removed the itty bitty feature of the FM radio (yes I am one of those old fashioned people who still listens to FM radio :/ and i find the data based radio's lacking quality and eating battery life/data)

Asus should increase the battery capacity to 5000 mAH.

The phone will be twice as thick then.

4gb overkilled liao....
daily normal usage 2gb should be enough.

Hopefully, ASUS makes a right move for this phone release in SG.
