Asus Pegasus - User Reviews

  • to all of you who have this phone, its default system launcher is chinese and you can't change it. the best option is to download the zenui launcher which is from the same manufacturer - asus, and your phone will work without any problems. just make the zenui launcher as your default.

  • I bought this phones on march 2016 for RS.7900 i was just using for two months and then it gives problem all system change version into Chinese and also internet does not work by data sim only via wifi and also it says " China telecom Surfing 4g ***********#" during power on and power off can sombody help me to fix this problem ,it is great mistake to buy such kind of coward device ,all are Chinese damn i can't even recognised a single letter . i have waste my 7900 for this Asus peagus X003

  • I believe I've figured out this one, as well. You were correct and it *is* all to do with Asus SmartLauncher. You'll notice there are two iterations of it running: one is for the English version, and the other is for the Chinese stuff when you swipe left--you'll note either can be chosen as the "homepage" when you do Manage Home -> Edit Page. The only way to get rid of it is to download, install and run another launcher app. I chose one at random called ADW.Launcher, and it's actually much better than the default Asus one. Best of all, it got rid of that screen I couldn't use.

  • I've figured out the solution to the error -26 issue. Believe it or not, to download from Google Play, you need to go to Settings -> Security -> scroll to Device Administration and tick the box next to "Unknown sources" to allow installation of apps from unknown sources. I learnt this solution after giving up on Google Play, and downloading an app called F-Droid to access apps from their library. To do this I had to tick the above box, and all of a sudden I also had access to Google Play. One thing; I believe this solution is directly related to the Chinese language-only Asus Apps Store, which I disabled via Settings -> Apps -> Running. Therefore, if Google still isn't working, you may have to force-stop and disble Asus Apps Store first.

  • Strange thing - there is no Pegasus X003 on gsmarena. As it is quite the same (save CPU which is Qualcomm Snapdragon here), I'd place a comment here (I see I'm not the first with X003). There were no issues with lang (localised almost perfectly and easily switched to eng), though the phone refuses installing apps from the playstore - it downloads, then failed "for unknown error -26". Any ideas what the problem here and how to solve?

  • hi I ve had the same problem. Did you fix it?

  • I bought this phone this week, it's Asus Pegasus X003 but the default launcher is on chinese on the home page when I swipe left. The launche's name is Asus SmartLauncher. Can anyone help me with this, can I change the language of the part that is in chinese? The phone language is english, but the part on the home screen when I swipe left is like htc sense but everything is chinese...?

  • It has been almost six months,since they announced this phone. Looks like they will not release this phone, mainly there will be a cannibalization to its own models such as Zenfone 2 & Zenfone 5.

  • so it will never come to Europe ?

  • octacore and the battery drain, that would be the biggest drawback, if it holds true for the indian climate better not bring it. But Asus can bring something like Sony Xperia E4g in India through WS Retail, Flipkart

  • nice phone specification. love it I am waiting

  • "Pegasus"... does it comes with a joystick? lol

  • Is there any releasing issue in India? Why this phone was not released in India while this phone was released in China two months back?

  • nice phone specification. love it. immmmmmmmm waiitingggggggggggggg

  • Does it has gorilla glass? If it does it's full package.. For how much?

  • No. Verizon is a CDMA network and these phones all use GSM radios. (I'm super bummed too). Eventually, Verizon will be using VOLTE which "should" allow us to use different devices like this. (unless Verizon decides they want to lock down their device selection like they have since the dawn of time. This article is a decent read.

  • asus is a brand this is best fhone in the warld camera was very good 2 gb ram

  • How can I tell if these phones work on Verizon Wireless in the USA? Do these phones work on Verizon?

  • Don't no why i liked this phone so much. just waiting 2 buy it as early as possible, may i hope its features are true and not fake one 9('-')

  • i have one doubt about the phone in this phone having fm anyone knew tell me

  • I am waiting for pegasus

  • Mediatek??...nope! Its always somethin wrong bout gps thing with all mediatek stuff...mediatrash!

  • Zenfone 2 uses Intel Atom Z3580 and a Power VR 6430 GPU. That's basically a snapdragon 800/adreno 330 level performance. While Pegasus uses MT 6732 and Mali T760 MP2 which is around a S4 pro/Adreno 320 level performance.

  • Yes, good question re user removable battery. Also, what about GLONASS?

  • The Mediatek MT6732 it's a quad core processor

  • where you find thin information bro?

  • Did this phone already exist in market other than china?

  • Is it octa-core or quad-core?

  • Actually, it is of different class of phone than zenfone2, zenfones are intel powered x86 base or i think a qualcom while pegasus is mediatek one.

  • Bring it for India, You guys have been dumping low-end phones for quite sometime-which wasn't your way of business earlier.

  • is this phone's battery has removable battery??

  • Still hoping that it can be avail in the philippines..

  • Still waiting for this phone to release in the philippines,but i think they only gonna release it in china

  • sadly it wont release in Indonesia :(

  • Is video calling available?

  • when will it launch in indonesia????????

  • When will sale Asus pegasus in jan?

  • Which one better, pegasus or redmi 2 (2s)? I am waiting both of this phone entering indonesian market :D

  • I want to buy this Phone. when is it come in Indonesia ?

  • when is it come to indonesia? i want buy..

  • when pegassus come to indonesia

  • Zenfone 2 is basically the flagship for Asus in 2015 while Pegasus is aimed at the midrange(at least in terms of specs).

  • Wow is this possible to be availbale in the philippines??

  • Zenfone 2 is away better than pegasus.

  • Which is better? Pegasus X002 or Zenfone 2......

  • when will it release in jan ?

  • yes it is removeable...

  • When will it release in the US? I've totally been waiting on this phone!

  • Sir When will this be available in the philippines?.. and is this a removable battery phone?

  • Well, for me I'll pick pegasus instead of zenfone6. It may have smaller screen, but I don't need that bulky 6 inch. Plus it got the 4G/LTE connectivity, its perfect for some one who want to stay with their phone for a long time, not just buy one every year. Though it will be hard to choose between this and zenfone2. Its just my opinion tough.

  • If u can spend as much to get a Zenfone 6 then I suggest u wait till march for Zenfone 2 which is better than both these phones.

  • which is better, this or Zenfone 6? or you have other recommendation on Asus phones?

  • Indonesia waiting for you asus pegasus When it's releace in indonesia

  • so cheap!!!!!i will buy one once it releace in malaysia this year.......

  • I hope they do that. I am also waiting for this phone but there has been no official news since the unveiling on Dec 23...

  • Pegasus x002 when lunch at Malaysia I'm the one waiting for you... Love it

  • Can I purchase this one from Chinese site? If yes then reply Hurley

  • I'm so excited to buy this. Is there any chance to release the same in India this month only

  • India also uses TD LTE band so it will be released in India.

  • I thinks this phone will not be available outside china at this time or any time soon. "The ASUS x002 can support TD-LTE, TD-SCDMA, and GSM networks which means it's made for China Mobile only". Source :

  • Hello,i am waiting for purchasing this mobile.mobile. Plz tell me when it will be in Indian market.

  • This is a good phone produce by Asus. Nice specification for its price. And for goodness sake do not ask so much for high end specs for its price. If your asking for high end specs go buy an iphone 6 or z3. This is a great value for your money.

  • this phone is for china network only. But I'm sure ASUS will release the worldwide version.

  • I would like to buy this

  • yes... mediatek mt6732 is QUAD CORE not octa core. But still it worth to buy... just for comparison: MEDIATEK MT6732: 1.5 GHz quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 Fabrication: 28 mm GPU : Mali-T760MP2 Memory technology : 32-bit single-channel 800 MHz LPDDR3 (6.4 GB/sec) Qualcomm MSM8916 Snapdragon 410: Up to 1.4 GHz quad-core Cortex-A53 Fabrication: 28 mm GPU : Adreno 306(WUXGA/1920x1200 + 720p external display) Memory technology : LPDDR2/3 533 MHz Single-channel 32-bit (4.2 GB/s) Source: WIKI

  • Anyone can tell me This phone work 4g in Malaysia or not

  • i lose my interest, if you say 4g works only in china and no screan protection.

  • i am desperate to buy this device

  • add grolia glass on it's screen pleasee

  • no protection glass for the screen??

  • It will be on the 2nd gen zenfones and will be priced higher than the mediatek versions.

  • i wanna get one please..

  • When i can get in malaysia . i really wanna buy it . i hope it will be launch 1 january .

  • Wht do you mean..? Pls reply.!

  • this phone having Corning Gorilla Glass?

  • Anyone know when this mobile will get launch in India?

  • asus promised to give a lollipop upgrade to all his 2014 and upcoming phones :D

  • For c sake no 850 = = hate asus

  • Is the battery removable or not?

  • I want it badly! When it will release in Malaysia?

  • I think its a quad core, not octa core

  • Intel atom z3745 is a quad core cpu with 1.33 ghz which is used i the latest Asus Memo 8 Pad not in the Asus zenfone series

  • Your wrong why are you referring to that when all zenfone series uses Z25+ series which only a dual core and is made of 32 nm process

  • hmmm price is questionable. other than that, please change the design ... it's zenfone all over again. why is it only Nokia that has different design across range and generations?

  • omg. I really wanna buy it

  • is OS upgradedable??..

  • expandable memory is up to 64 gb....

  • but...intel z3745 is 22nm

  • Also the cpu on pegasus support 4G Lte

  • Zenfone series has atom cpu with die size of 32nm....This mediatek 6732 isa made on 28nm process so its more power efficient....+ its glofs is 40+....compared to 25 on zenfone 5.....It can decode Ultra Hd video(i think its the 2k resolution or the quad Hd resolution) based on mediatek site and 4k recording and playback for mediatek new 64 bit octa core processor...The new mediatek 6732 used a quad core Cortex A53 which is 50% much power than previous cortex A7 core with the same power cosumption...and its Gpu(graphics is beast) the mali 760Mp2(dual core)

  • could have been a 4.3 to 4.5inch screen then it is good

  • Dude... I COMPLETELY agree with you... 1 company? please?

  • This phones is definetly better than Zenphones not only because it have more powerfull cpu/gpu also it is a 64bit phone that will optimise it when android lollipop will arrive in this phone. One advantages of 64bit proc comparet to 32bit are better handling of memory/ram faster memory ram/storage that will cause smoothess. $$$$$$$

  • Any manufacturer willing to produce the same good specs phone with smaller 4 inch screen nowadays? 5 inches ++ phone is not handy and can't fully fitted inside my shirt pocket. New phone with 4 inches nowadays are low specs or with bad camera. 4.3 / 4.5 inches they called it MINI /COMPACT ??!!. Come on... 'BIG' phone are not cool.

  • Because my family isn't the richest, this might possibly be my next phone. Please don't hate on me. :)

  • I think its a best phone in this price..! What's your opinion..., when it will be available.. Pls reply..

  • Wht do you mean by that

  • Actually no, when lollipop arrives this phone will be much more powerful and future proof compared to Zenfone.

  • i think its not an octacore its a quadcore processor only...

  • i love ASUS, waiting for pegasus X002 to come in india. gorrila glass or any other protection ? fm radio ? which processor & gpu is better zenfone 5 or pegasus ?

  • Asus Pegasus is better.

  • i am bay a smartphone cen u tell me something who is the best micromax nitro or asus pagasus x002

  • Price 80 Euro?! it that for real?

  • It doesn't support FDD LTE 1800 Mhz band, so this phone is of no use outside China.

  • You wrong this Asus Pegasus is much more powerfull and has long lasting battery life than zephone series because of its energy efficient Mali T760 gpu!!!

  • nice phone i will buy

  • Acc. To the price,the latest 64 bit processor and mali t670 its a really good Phone.

  • Love it, bring to India - Do put a customer friendly tag though on the price. Lets bring the game to Micromax and Xiaomi

  • Better battery than zenfone 5 but it has mediatek processor it is not as gud as the intel processor on the zenfone for better performance zenfone is better but in d case of battery backup pegasus is better
