Asus Zenfone 5 Lite ZC600KL - User Reviews

  • Mine also :(

  • anybody else experiencing screen rotation when playing games, even with the screen rotation option turned off?

  • my camera on this phone is doing fine, autofocus works only on wide mode but the MP size doesn't matter

  • still waiting for review?????

  • Good phone.fast browsing and downloading.Excellent build quality.good size.suggest to buy such great phone

  • Excellent phone in this price.a step ahead of samsung,oppo and hauwei.great performance.good wide angle camera s.extra ordinary phone. Dont hesitate to buy.buy then you will be remember i say.

  • Got my Android Pie 2 days ago. And every things is fine, I mean there are no problems with daily use. But still, I dissatisfied with the camera. Still pictures and video is not satisfying. EIS is like non exist at all. And auto focus only works on wide camera with smaller MP. Come on Asus, better not make a phone rather than disappointing your faithful customers. The main reason I bought lite version of Zenfone 5 was that I don't like ugly notch. Why do you think that what Apple made will always be good selling phone? Nope, you're wrong. The Apple notch design is the ugliest design of smartphone.

  • reason why the flashlight turns off after 20secs is because they made it that way, there are some people complaining about their phone's flashlight turning on by itself while it's in their pocket and some forgets to turn it off after usage it's pretty annoying on my end that it turns off by itself, do you experience your screen rotating by itself while using the phone?

  • post that on zentalk forum i have same problem

  • Hi. I have a problem after updating to Android 9. 1) First, I have a problem with Adaptive brightness. It doesn't match with light and always I have a problem to view the display. 2) Second, when I turn on the flashlight manually, after 20 seconds it turned off automatically. Does anyone have the same problem? And does anyone know the solution?

  • finally able to get an OS Update, and it's Pie, the features in my X017DA is really satisfying, but I am yet to check if the batter lasts longer or shorter (hopefully not) Size is 1.638 GB

  • it's not, both front and back panels are glass, it don't scratch that easy tho

  • please, someone tell us is it scratch (keys & coins) and drop resistant or?????????

  • I agree the camera burns whites and don't have auto focus the camera image is lousy.... if it's wrong usage were there is info on it? I had another phones and they work fine on auto mode asus should work fine also on auto mode it shouldn't be necessary to go to pro mode to have nice pictures......

  • Very bad and delay running deadly. Only chip price, nothing good/

  • if you're a gamer, don't buy this phone, this lags in ML and other games, even in low quality, a lot of people felt ripped off of this product, Asus has disappointed in updates as well

  • Buy honor 8x . It has 4 cortex A73 This Asus doesn't have any powerful cores like A73 cores at all

  • i dont thing asus will give an android pie, nor oreo. please go to zentalk forum.

  • ZC600 KL CPU Octa-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 Qualcomm MSM8937 Snapdragon 430 GPU Adreno 505 MEMORY Internal 32GB, 3GB RAM X017DA CPU Octa-core 2.2 GHz Cortex-A53 Qualcomm SDM630 Snapdragon 630 GPU Adreno 508 MEMORY Internal 64GB, 4GB RAM

  • Sir...can any one tell me.what is difference in ZC 600 KL and XA017DA.? major difference ...plz

  • I think I got a faulty unit, my battery drains fast and charges fast as well, I usually do great pictures even with low cam quality but I'm having a hard time on this unit, I have adjusted everything but the photos still stays the same quality which is way lower than a Huawei Y7 Prime, wew

  • Cmiiw Gorilla can't protect fall from high position..maybe this fuction is just for protect from scratch

  • In Brazil, the less powerful edition is sold as Zenfone 5 Selfie, and the most powerful edition as Zenfone 5 Selfie Pro.

  • This really is very strange. Will Asus ignore Android Oreo and distribute the Android Pie?

  • I just bought my phone last year, and i wonder why my finger print does not work anymore. I already reset as the service center ask me to do. but still there's nothing change. I hope you help me to fix this problem. Thank you

  • After auto update my mobile net is not working. how to solve this pro?

  • How much time it need to fully charge from 0% to 100%

  • Yes no phone can beat it amazing features

  • Are you serious?

  • our Z5Q can took a 49mp photos too, using super resolution mode on the camera setting, but too bad still run on nougat, can't wait for pie/oreo

  • Your comment totally wrong or u don't know how to use the camera.... the camera even better than Redmi Note 5 i have both

  • Android Oreo 8.1 available in Thailand region

  • Battery backup more than my expectations camera really amazing just need professional camera people to get the outstanding results super fast never experienced any lag or issue of heating sound quality very good and looking super premiu

  • To the people who complain this device is really extremely good ... tje.batt

  • The camera is very disappointing it burns fast on whites and there is no auto focus for example the quality for colors are very poor... very disappointed with it

  • Can anyone please tell me that is this phone perfect for photography?

  • Buyers beware. The screen is not gorilla and it does not tell you in the spec sheet. My phone fell less than 4 ft and thglass was sohas scratches all over. Lower end asus has gorilla screen. Shameful asus for not being transparent on this. Big disappoinyment.

  • January 2019 and still with nougat. Good job asus...

  • Is there no OS update ?

  • Bro buy it, I have purchase the phone and is really good.

  • Sir r I really using this???? I want to buy it but after seeing the user review I m confuse about its camera...PlZ guide me

  • Awesome phone,, CAMERA outstanding,, never seen such a great camera for selfie ....5STAR

  • The worst camera. Don't buy that phone. Terrible camera.

  • Awesome coz i bought under 200 usd. Performance, body, Display is awesome, 2.5D screen also looks v.nice. Mic & sound also awesome. V.little bezels. Cameras are also v.nice (according 2 price), but acc to specs the cameras doesn't performs as they should.! not a shock proof glass.

  • good

  • Don't expect much on the camera.The apparture only f2.2

  • It always says Cooldown when opening camera.

  • And...sometimes can not update application on playstore . So we have to restart the phone.

  • The camera is terrible. Too much noise. I think this is a software issue actually. The performance is okay but there's a bug in twin apps. Sometimes the twin app will get disconnected but the main one is okay. Another software problem.

  • Oohhhh...Ooorreeeoooo plleeaassseee.....

  • If you concern about quality of camera, i may suggest don't buy this phone.

  • I hope so.....ASUS please..

  • if u r using.can.u tel me about its camera result.. I want to buy but suspected about its camera after read user opinions.plz help me

  • Oreo please....

  • can.anyone tell about its camera

  • I' ll doubth only at the camera...ang about the games it is great...pubg,2k19,asphalt9, needfor speed most wnted ang no limit,

  • Just not only GPS problem, this phone has critical problem with its Camera. Until now no issue when they will upgrade to Oreo.

  • any gps issues? problem to lock gps?

  • OMG !!!.....Why is this forum so quiet ? Probably caused by Zenfone 5 Lite users very little ?

  • does anyone have a problem with the location or GPS function on Zenfone 5Q same like me ? The problem is the GPS can not lock properly.

  • I really hope that Asus will immediately provide firmware updates related to the "Asus Zenfone 5 Lite" camera performance, hopefully Asus hears this problem. 🙏🙏🙏

  • Brother.i want to purchase it..but I m seeing the that the opinion about it camera Is not good.can I tell m truly about its camera performance plz

  • And how's about its camera?

  • it is only SD630, so PUBG & Asphalt 8 only runs at low setting. You should pick others that have SD845 to play those games.

  • Can any owner share how well it handles heavy games like PUBG, Asphalt 8? I'll appreciate it.

  • Camera's quality is below average (many noises) even has last update on Sep 3, 2018.

  • I agree with you, the camera quality is very bad, especially in low lighting.

  • Still usb 2.0???

  • 1 hour and 45 minutes normal charging time.

  • Bought this phone 2 months ago and still waiting for the oreo version.... also the camera is not very good, it has bad autofocus and "burns"all the whites very quickly... so the photos are too dark or to bright on the automatic functions that should work for people to take fast photos.... on a phone supposedly with great sony cameras bla bla this shouldn't happen

  • Can anyone tell ...asus zenfone 5q take how much time to charge battery?

  • this phone selling point is nfc, because oppo, vivo, xiaomi, in this similar price or spec , does not have nfc.

  • if you need nfc buy this one, if not, anything else.

  • You said about the camera really good, is it really ?

  • asus makes phones for gaming purpose so its fast but camera quality is average

  • Is this phone worth it ?? Should i buy this phone or zenfone max pro lite or xiaomi redmi 5 ??

  • Pros: 1. fingerprint scanner is really fast. 2. good quality photo from main camera Cons: 1. Sound quality is subpar (I'm so disappointed). 2. Photos from selfie camera are always over exposed.

  • Be sure Oreo will arrive dude :)

  • Actually, I think they decided to skip Oreo, since they announced in Q1 2019, Android Pie with ZenUi 5 will arrive on this device.

  • we will release ZenUI 5.0 with Android O as soon as possible.

  • Hi. w8 a bit more. maybe asus will launch it on pakistan. I'm from iran and we're still w8ing for ZenFone 5 series. 5 and 5 lite will launch this month 5z will be 2 month later.

  • Hi dear. I think ZenFone 5Q (Lite) is better here. better UI, camera, performance and etc.

  • Nokia x6 or Asus zenfone 5 lite??? only serious user's do suggest pl....

  • The phone run smooth. I bought Asus 5Q few weeks ago. No issues on battery, the camera is very good.

  • All over is good, but for the battery is weak!

  • + tax

  • That would be your connection, nothing to do with the phone

  • one day.. we will know it

  • if you need NFC buy Asus

  • how about battery life? can survive one day?

  • Can anyone tell about the camera?? It equipped with wideangle just like LG's G&Vseries. I wonder which one better...

  • How i got this phone ( asus zenfone 5 lite ) in islamabad,pakistan ,,??

  • Just bought it, good phone, so far did not find any problems

  • Nope,because its IPS panel.but it got LED nitification

  • Weak signal. Unstable connection. Dont waste your money.

  • its only 3.600.000 IDR in Indonesia, equals 13.500 - 14.000 PHP.

  • I thought the SD630 supported BT5?

  • If u use usb type c i will buy it, why asus... Why????

  • why micro usb?? :(

  • asus

  • Charging time(based on my experience): 8:00pm (19%) 9:31pm (100%) 1hr and 31mins will give you 89% of battery.

  • Do anyone experiences this? When you record a video on any resolution the camera focuses(noticeable) at the middle of the recording. Answer ASAP.

  • What do you mean by unstable connection?

  • Actually it only has Android Nougat 7.1.1

  • using this phone for 2 days now and im experiencing unstable data connection in globe 4g in manila area..any solution for this?

  • 17,000 on the Philippines

  • How much it priced?

  • I just bought the phone. It is higher than my expectations.

  • did the oreo update come onto this device?

  • Does this phone have Gorilla Glass? I've read sources where it says it does and others say it doesn't.

  • How does this phone perform when running games like HIT and PUBG? I've read reviews but none of them go in-depth with the performance.

  • Aside from the manual, it has an earphones with extra earbuds, charger, silicon clear case and a pin used to open the card slot.

  • Does it have AI guys?

  • What we get inside the box?

  • Zenfone 5 Lite is more expensive than RN5Pro. I'm not sure of zenfone if had gorilla protection. RN5Pro in paper is very good but seems to be a rush product. If u like the better redmi go for the Chinese version. What i like of the zenfone is it has a dedicated storage slot. These are just a few of what i know about these 2 so it all boils down to your liking.

  • where online can I buy this phone, pay and ship to U.S.?
