just got my zenfone 2.

ZE551ML 4GB/64GB from singtel.

updating firmware now. but its my 3rd time already. everytime i am done updating, i check for updates, it says theres another update.

is there a way to find out what is the latest update available?

it seems battery usage is indeed high, however, this could be because i have not gone into wiping cache partition and also worked on the settings. am working on the phone's firmware updates for now.

Am using the ZE551ML 4GB/64GB version zenfone2. Would like to check with fellow users, when u guys use the fast charging adapter provided by asus, is it normal for the phone to be so hot?? Feel like about 75-80 degrees. Previously was using xuaomi redmi note, even when charging using a 5V=2A charger, there was no heat at all.

As long as the device is charging it will heat up, faster charge = more heat. Cannot be no heat at all unless it finished charging even for 2A chargers.

no kidding, my xiaomi redmi note really no heat when charging. touch the back case while charging, u dont feel anything. like room temperature.

will start to monitor the charge times compared to usage times.

Yes slow on anker

Fast on samsung

Think Anker will depend on which "version". Took a few measurement, find usb voltage output is around 5.0 to 5.1v. Samsung charger consistently output in range of 5.15 to 5.3v and able to reach 2A without problem.
