Asus Zenfone Go ZC500TG - User Reviews

  • Nope

  • zenfone go zc500tg has infrared

  • Can it read OTG? tia for those who will reply.

  • How this device can be made Flash files!i need flash file of this version ! help Thank you

  • The gps not good always lost connection or not working

  • I have 2 phone of this model, one i bought in 2016 and 9ne again in 2019. All of that i've bought the new one.

  • Same with me, like that

  • Please marsmellow update. Or update to lolipop 5.1.1 because i want to play pubg

  • 2 years im using this phone, and lcd and volume flexible i had ever changed

  • There is no difference between Zc500tg and Zoovd bro !!

  • This mobile have some defects ! It has remained for some updates !! In next update it have to give some updates as the following👇👇👇­👇👇👇&#128­071;👇👇 1) Marshmallow update 2)OEM Unlocking option in developer option 3)Otg Cable support

  • I have been using this ASUS phone about 2 years ago nd I think it the best.....

  • Why my phone 1ram,1500Mah,5,mp?

  • I have been using asus go about 3 years and half. In my opinion, I think this is good for budget, maybe?. oh ya I got this phone with 145$ :). The design is simple, nothing fancy. Performance on this is average. I can play most of the games without lag (ML, modern combat 5 on low graphic), Nova 3, Ros and more. Pubg doesn't support on it hahaha. Camera? If you are a selfie person, this phone is not for you. but noted, its NOT THAT BAD for other stuff. The battery is... not good. I could spend on my phone about 3 hours only. Enough with battery. For sound and speaker, I think its acceptable and comfortable to listen. I I am not complaining anymore. I have drop my phone once on hard floor. it didn't break or leave scratches even a tiny. So far, everything is working just fine and able to use. If I could make a wish, I hope asus will improve on battery life and other thing in the future. :)

  • This phone is very nice . But it's internet was very slow on 3g.please upgrade a 4g version for next update..please.....please.. My friend phone was LYF (lollipop).but it's 4g ...:( My phone (zc500tg)was also lollipop. But not work 4g..... Please fix it my problem:(

  • This is the best phone ever imho the camera quality is excellent in this price range. You can throw this thing around and you won't find a single scratch or dent on it. It is simply the wisest thing to buy.

  • Guys, please don't buy this phone, it is bad. I installed Android 7.1.2 LineageOS and I have these bugs so I want a new phone: -Battery drains fast -No headphone recognized -Video recording has bugs while playing -Instagram and facebook crash randomly -All games or apps crash when attempted to open Can you help me fix these bugs? What should I do?

  • actually this fone is good....you can playing mobile legend without lag but the connection is suck and the camera is poor

  • Always Lag Frequently Overheating Too much apps stuck before restart battery 60 % after restart 15 % signal always lost When lag call button can call 5 times

  • H+ is faster than 3g.

  • All of budget phone doesn't support OTG yet

  • Short lasting battery Overheated very frequently Lagging Terrible phone

  • is it possible to connect flashdisk with otg .. ???

  • i am using the 16 gb ASUS _ZOO VD which is working fine till date. i m loving this phone as i m still using which was brought before around 20 months. Only the front camera sucks. otherwise noone beats this phone on the low price segment.

  • I got this device and according to your information it says that this device is compatible with 3g network? But mine never turn into 3g but always in h+, im just wondering if you guys knows how to turn and make it stay to 3g network? I would appreciate your advice, thanks

  • Yeah it says that the battery capacity is 2000mAh but it didn't last long! I'm so frustrated with this issue. Is it because of its type which is Li-po? I've done a research before and it says Li-ion works much better at having a long lasting battery than Li-po.

  • Omg! I got the same problem!!!!!! but I don't use it anymore 'coz it's a junk and a waste of money. I'd also experienced lags, overheating, and hangs most of the time.

  • I compared it in hand with some of the new phones that are on the market right now and it beats them all. I am in love with this phone.

  • Its the same z00vd is on board

  • auto brightness worked awesome in this budget phone compare to some other expensive phoney..

  • Do you have the 8 GB internal memory model, if so, then that is why it sucks, can't basically buy any phone with 8 GB because you can't run apps on it. This is because android stopped allowing installation of apps to SD card (they said its too unstable) and that basically ruined a whole bunch of phones. There are workarounds for that but you lose warranty. If you had the 16 GB version I would be amazed that there isn't enough space. Android usually uses up 4 GB for itself and then some other stuff may take a little more and a basic app does not exceed 1GB so I wouldn't understand how you can't fit more than 4 apps on the phone - perhaps you can explain a bit more cause I am looking for a budget phone for my little brother. :P

  • very good

  • my Asus phone restart at every time and reapts many times please is there any solution.

  • Good-> battery and screen..... Bad -> photos and no data space, I can only install 4 apps, I have to move all the time whatsapp conversations and multimedia to SD card, not even good cellphone to give to my parents, just a really bad and useless cellphone, if you only want to make calls, this is for you.

  • RIP phone drop it at the water :(

  • worst phone i ever had.. positive: camera. connection, speed negative: blank screen and freeze all the time overheats, it cooked a memory card, i ve lost all data piece of junk

  • GPS is very imprecise. Up to 40m. I sent it to assistance three times and it was never fixed. Finally they gave me a new phone and the problem was still there. Absolute piece of junk. Don't buy asus products

  • I want 4g lte on this phone

  • Who knows, what is the different between this model( Asus Zenfone Go Zc500TG) with Asus Zenfone Go Z00VD

  • The screen is always Hang and when I Type Mistouch I've encountering. Help me!

  • Excellent phone for price range do not understand why people are moaning about quality for a 70 pound phone has many top range features personally I would have expected to pay 140 for phone very impressed

  • good phone!

  • ISO is for your sensor sensitivity lower iso means lower noise and lower light sensitivity hence darker picture which also depends on your f/stop and exposure time.

  • Dude i also hv the same problem

  • i have some problem in my phone pls some one can help me autometicaly it optimises the apps again n again i cant use phone what to do pls help. pls tell me whts problem in my phone

  • Hey,,,, am I the only one who's encountering this type of problem? Well, my camera has a problem whenever I change the iso into lower one (so that I can avoid camera noise) the pictures turn into a darker one,,, literally dark but you can see a little from it ,,, but whenever I change the iso into auto,,, the camera lags,, what am I going to do with this?

  • Very Nice Phone! No Issues! No Lag! Amazing Device!

  • The updates might be a bit backdated. Hope the admins will update it.

  • Is NBA 2k16 or 17 compatible to this phone? (ZENFONE GO ZC500TG)

  • It is such a good phone besides the price is so reasonable for me as student....i never faced up any big issues except fast battery draining when my battery level is at 5%..

  • Some people behave like monster when using phone..just a small budget phone dont expect too much

  • before i came on many problems with the phone then i restart my phone. after completing restart it has been loading since days and does not show any home screen after many hours what may be the problem please help me any one

  • Me too. This phone is good but when I use the mobile data, I can't have a Google search and I can't access to Instagram. The mobile data can display several websites or the websites that has simple web address.

  • you are one of the few users without any complain...well done

  • when i drop the phone,then i try to on it the screen become black but the sound can use

  • First, I'm sorry for my very broken english. I own this phone for 1 year now, I use this on daily basis and this is my short review: Pro: +Price/Performance (Webs surfing, lightweight gaming, Facebook, Twitter... are all ok). +Build quality (this is very objective just FYI) I drop this phone more than 5 time and all of them are from ~ 1.4m and beside some dents and scratches, nothing else happens. +Good front and rear camera for taking pics but video recording is below avg. Cons: +Build quality, if you own the white version, the white color of the back cover will comes off (no it doesn't fade away), I mean it has two layer of "paint", they're both white but with different shade and the outter layer will comes off. +Battery, full run at 50% screen brightness of mix use (I DONT play game) give you ~ 3.5hr (100 to zero of course). +Camera crashes if you take more than 30 pictures.

  • i toojk it last day it has an average price but no good camera , there is a vague in its picture battery charging takes a long time

  • Battery drain fast.

  • ASUS is good in using but,when the charge is 15% and in the same time it shut down quickly. And when it is more than 15% it goes normal. I don't know what too do.

  • ASUS is good in using but,when the charge is 15% and in the same time it shut down quickly. And when it is more than 15% it goes normal. I don't know what too do.

  • Why my asus zenfon go is always recharge everyday?

  • Guys this phone have a good camera and battery? ?

  • cannot use google search or internet browser when using mobile data. but when using wifi i can browse . anyone can help

  • Im experiencing the same.thing too. Just bought it last oct 31, and now the battery drains so fast and just a while ago it automatically shuts down and restarting!!!

  • i have one with internal memory 8 gb which isn't enough for anything and the phone refuse to move nearly all apps to sd card which make the problem ; i don't know how to move the applications with its data to sd card because what it move only is the source file not its data which mean nothing at all , i don't want to root it because it still has warrenty i just have it for 2 months and don't know what to do with this problem. any ideas to help?

  • Lol at these people asking a lot for a phone with these specs. Go buy something triple the price and be done with it. Overall this fone served my needs for everyday usage. I dont game in this phone but runs most game on moderate. Be realistic with your budget phone and not expect to be like high end ones.

  • My cell consumes lots of data balance. Even on using just whatsapp facebook and hike,it drains 500mb in just one week.help me out

  • It's a good phone at this price range if you were not bothered about 4g.. It has got a mediatek processor coupled with 2GB of ram. Many high end games like asphalt 8(in high graphics mode), nova 3 etc is playable in this device without any lag. This phone is also very good for multitasking. In terms of battery performance you will get a screen on time of about 4.5 to 5 hours which is a very good thing about the device. I don't face any network issue with this phone. The camera of this phone is just average even in normal light condition and dark light. For dark light modes I prefer everyone to use night mode which can give you more decent images than auto mode. Front camera is ok but the beauty fixation mode is worse. A suggestion from my part, most of the apps preloaded in this device can be disabled so if u does not use any apps, just disable it. It can give you some more extra juice and do update all apps which u use if possible and do checkout system updates and update your device if it is present it can fix many problem . Coming to conclusion that if u are a gamer and used to watch lots of videos and hear audio it's a perfect choice at this range but If you're a person who takes photography more,then I won't reccomend this phone to those.. Thank u..

  • my phone is heating up fast and charge is draining fast

  • I'm having issues with the phone. It freezes a lot. it restarts. i also started having battery issues lately. it drains a lot quicker even after managing background apps. It won't hold a charge anymore, it drains while charging. The phone heats up. it's 5 months old. Should i replace the battery? i dunno what to do anymore.

  • Why there is no edit quick setting icon?

  • where is the water indicator in the phone because mine get water into it but it still works fine but i want to check . thanks in advance

  • Does flashfire works on this phone.. coz i want to update my phone

  • 1. Turn off your phone first. 2. Press power button + volume up until boot menu comes up 3. Select first category by pressing volume up 4. Press power button + volume up 5. Release volume button 6. Select wipe data by pressing power button Enjoy..

  • No

  • This phone support otg ??

  • the front camera is poor..

  • The asus zenfone go have poor performance camera so blurred. Tsk.

  • CALL waiting setting

  • Go to settings>more>cellular networks> access points names> (create a profile if you dont have one, or just simply reset to default disregard if you already have one)> tap your current APN> remove if theres a proxy and port> check if apn protocol is ipv4 and apn type must be default,supl... Now go to settings 1 more time >about phone>status>sim status>check for cellular type, it should be hspa or hspa+/ and also check signal str. Dbm means signal loss in layman, the higher the worst, This will be the basic tshoot for your phone, and make sure your sim is capable for internet access, like susbcription or something. If this shit doesnt make sense do a hard reset..

  • Nice processor and ram

  • Loll..

  • I'ts a Zen5 2.0.

  • Frnds pls don't even think about buying asus ZenFone go mobile.....it has lotz of problem especially battery capacity is very bad and it's drying so fast without using mobile......so better avoid buying this.

  • A 1000$ iphone vs a 140$ zenfone...sounds about right.

  • can somebody tell me how to unlock this phone cuz when i bought it it wasen't unlock ????

  • screen flicker...vertical lines appear.

  • Its a simple solution buy an IPhone done!

  • ok guys, im tired of hearing the battery problem that you all mentioning, for god sake go to asus service centre and get them to look at it.. for god sake you got 1 year warranty. if your phone is having problem got service centre and get it fix that simple. do not wait for it to become big problem later. some phone have issue thats the fact. always buy phone from authorized dealer. do not buy it on online, most of the phone that we bought online is not original its more like ap set..

  • Asus phone high speed processor and its camera is much better than any other phone did u know that

  • this phone is very bad and camera is also very bad please frnds do not purchase this

  • the phone does not have otg

  • The GPS Is Having A Problem -_- Fix It Asus -_-

  • is this phone have otg

  • well RMA it.

  • Couldn't be happier with mine

  • This is by far one of the worst phones I ever bought. Here's a list of problems I'm facing with this piece of junk: - random vibrations while talking. God knows why; - notifications don't make the screen turn on, so if you missed the tone, tough luck. The blinking led does not work for all apps (for example, it doesn't work on Yahoo Messenger notifications) - the default keyboard resets to Google Voice after each reboot - I have swiftkey as the default input method. I have to reset it each time. - if I'm using the quick search feature (pull down on the screen) to search for a contact, clicking on it doesn't make the actual call, it just opens the phone app with the number already typed and I have to click yet again to initiate the call. It's very annoying. - the build quality is bad, the plastic is cheap and gets broken fast, like the charging slot, there's a small plastic thing there that lasted about 2 months. - gps is very bad, I can barely make an accurate lock. - 3g drains the battery very fast, mine lasted about 3 hours on full use. Overall, I would never buy or recommend this to annyone. I'm already looking for a replacement, maybe a Galaxy or something. Higher price, but clearly higher quality.

  • some apps are not starting.give me some sollition.

  • I bought my Zenfone Go 5.0 last June 19 only and I haven't experienced any problems yet. The phone is cheap but is more than what I paid for. 16GB internal storage and 2GB RAM is more than enough for me. The camera's decent, both the main and the front. I have downloaded apps that extends battery life and stops bugs and hogs, and even cools down CPU so I am able to use my phone to its extent. I just unplugged the charger at 9:10 and now using it for an hour nonstop (wifi's on and there's some background apps that are causing the battery to drsin faster) and it's just decreased by 12%. Fair enough for me.

  • I bought this mobile a month ago, it was an incredible set at first. Because og its performance and battery life. But now this most of my offline apps is not working, but all other functions r working perfectly. If anyone has any solutions plz say

  • After SYSTEM UPDATE you can move the apps to SD card

  • update your system.

  • Try seeking assistance from local dealers there. There might be a solution to your problem.

  • I think we have similar experience. Take your unit to an authorized service center. They may help you.

  • I just bought my new ZC500TG. I love its specs and the price. Camera is very fine. My problem, however, is that the phone kept on hanging after I have upgraded its system thru wifi. The service center technician told me that since the item is still on warranty, the system board will be replaced. I was not able to use it for a month after purchase. Now, I'm still waiting for the phone to be fixed.

  • just one complaint on this phone. when i'm texting it keeps closing/crushing and opens another application its very annoying... can some one please help me what to do???

  • I sent my phone to america and it doesnt work. So dont worry you are not alone. Although it has the correct bands, it just doesnt work. There is a reason why this phone is so cheap.

  • well, its for me to find out if its really good or really bad...its just that i like how it looks, its specs and all. i just bought mine;)

  • I bought my Asus Zenfone GO in Indonesia, and now I am trying to use it in America. Has anyone here used the Zenfone Go in America? I can't connect to any wireless networks. Please share your experiences.

  • battery drain very fast can't acess WCDMA

  • because its cheap thats why it do that to you.

  • its good.its really good.

  • Why my phone going off when someone call me? and I think this phone if full of s***.. eventhough it cheap..

  • Camera doesn't work. I tried resetting (rebooting), but still, it will allow you to take one shot, then it will freeze. At first, I kind of like it coz the camera worked well. After couple of weeks, it wouldn't even open the app (camera).

  • Have it for a month. Not bad at all. We are talking about budget phone so... big screen, 2GB RAM, 16GB internal storage, nice picture, decent camera, above decent video, very elegant phone, nice sound, clear voices during conversation, user friendly android. Updated system same day I bought it from official site. I didn't experience any heating problem at all. This one is the coldest of all of my previous phones ( and I had ZTE, Sony, Huawei, Samsung in that order). Remarks: had problem with GPS only when I first connected (needed at least 10 minutes) after that no problem at all (connects instantly); I also cant't update some ZenUI (ASUS) services. I don't know why, it states that it's not compatibile with my device (maybe it's some regional settings or something that will be possible in some future updates), but not a big deal; battery is weak in paper but in practice drains for 2 days, sometimes full 3 days and I don't play games only, everything else I'm using intense (calls, messages of all kind, Internet). For this, and even for 20-50$ more, I would reccomend this phone by heart.

  • It has any heating prblmz????

  • Same here. Its use cheap GPS chip.

  • GPS really sucks. Dont buy if you are frequent navigator user.

  • Im happy to hear Asus worked out for you. But as for me, my zenfone go now has two 4cm yellow spots on the screen. It has been 9 months. I never dropped the phone and i do take good care of it. Its just poor quality. Also Asus would not do anything about. I am here only to state the truth. I wish i could write something positive but truth is, my phone screen is still defective.

  • Hi. I used my asus Zenfone GO since 2016. After i formatted my handphone, the new installed apps were save on memory card not my internal storage. I need to save in internal memory. Do you have any solution cause i can't find that setting. Help me.

  • It's not the phone - something is keeping your system active and preventing it from going to deep sleep. Google "better battery stats" and "wakelock detector", they should help you figure out what's going on.

  • i am use this mobile 3 months ..its performace is too good . superb camera , superb battery life ; i am really love this phone....

  • hthis phone better than an iphone 6s

  • I have to think again to buy this phone..

  • the battery life of this phone is horrible. as a matter of fact, I'm charging my phone right now while typing this review. The last time i charged it was 6 hours ago and from then on, the battery drained from 100 to 15 percent. i did not overused it, neither played high intensity games. the main use of this device for me in particular was only for streaming videos and texting. I would not suggest anyone buying this phone or maybe it's your own preference but seriously considering it's battery drain, you'll have to buy a power bank or an extra battery just to complete a whole day with this.

  • After received the lasted update, now you can install your apps in SDcard

  • The asus so very good

  • Im sorry for those who bought this phone. At first it was a great budget phone, but now its the worst smartphone i ever used. Besides the yellow problem on the screen, now all of a sudden there is no more data. I take sim card n place it on another phone and its fine. This phone is horrible. Please dont buy it. Matter of fact a lot of my friends said Asus just makes crappy phones. Thats the truth. The money save wont compensate for the headache. Im never buying another Asus again. And their customer service is the worst.

  • I have this kind of cellphone. and it's good. the battery last for up to 2 days. i never encounter those kinds of problem.

  • halloo Ev i work with every problem in these phone 1- app to move in sd >> first i root old ww_phone 12.1.0.25 & 36 it root easy to remove phone app to free space 3.8 g Fake space i find 12.1.0.47 it fix this to install app in sd >>:) but still some app not move > 2- if i open mobile data & change to wifi mobile get problem massage must restart to work > this still have this after update not slaved 3- i cant find any root to this V12.1.0.47 the good is ram is = 2 G i love 2 g ram >> from Egypt --- say = asus zc500tg 70 % good

  • you still lucky compare to me.. I just bought it on last November 2015. In Jan, i found the screen was cracked due to no reason. I f i have overcharged and the battery over heat, the cracked should be at the botton of screen and not at the to of screen. When i sent it to the ASUS Service Centre, it took a months for them to come back to me and told me that the cost of repair was RM209.00 due to a reason that is 'customer' fault. I was disappointed and asked for a technical report which is after that they promise to repair the phone. However, after a few months, it still not repair due to a reason that there is no spare part of the phone. After a few times follow up, today the come up with a very simple technical report. Reason : customer fault.

  • Just want to warn everyone, this phone has a poor built. Used it for 6 months and screen starting to have yellow spots. It also freezes quite a bit. It is a budget phone i understand, but also understand i use it for basic chatting, email, and reading news only. Apparently, there better budget phones and this came from an Asus employee, he told me they are facing many issues.

  • Hey if the company claims 8GB you wont get complete 8GB in any device. Some space is taken by the device OS if you are familiar with these things. Also for battery backup there are many things taken into consideration. Use Auto start Manager & Power saver App to deny background App & also to clear RAM at frequent intervals.

  • This is a useless phone.. hopeless battery back up, doesn't even last 5 hours properly.. Memory the co. claims is 8 GB.. After op system use the available memory is only 3.85 GB.. Im really not happy.. Go in for a Lava or Lennovo in the same range

  • How did you root it? By pc? Or using apps like kingroot? I only want to root this but stay with stock rom, ill just flash skynet or L-speed tweaks, and of course install titanium back up

  • Why my phone can't open SMMi test application?

  • yes, she is. so thank you.:-)

  • hello everyone !! this is really nice phone, does all the basic job... if u don't play heavy games,not always online ,not chatting everytime.... then this buddy for u. i got one issue today... "loudspeaker icon" popup on the screen in every 2-3 mins.... i'm not getting it ,why its happing.... any idea to Go5.0 users ??

  • NO there is no such settings available. May be ASUS ZEN UI devs does some changes in this cheaper set. some other options are also missing in it.

  • yeah it's nice...camera is also nice...but if you do that too much + gaming then it will not last for full day. bt i suppose ur mother is in home all day then u can go for this Awesome phn.

  • Hi, I want to buy this smartphone for my mother. she's 59, she realy likes taking photos, talking on the phone and sometimes gaming to, but games like candy crush and etc. so, would you recomend it for her? I found it cheaper and stylish. anu tips?

  • i have used asus since last nov, but lately the phone keypad was not working properly, the word q,1,p cannot be used. i dont know is that some glitch or because of the phone problem itself, please help me :(

  • My experience on this phone The design(for me) is ok, i think the design is for the men bcause of its style, The cam is quite good enough for me. Back and front,maybe its depends on your style. The display also is quite good enough, satisfied on what ive seen, watch 720p on youtube and its ok. The performance, i think it depends on you what apps is running, in a casual gaming its good enough, with sometimes heating(i think it is normal, all gadgets and euipments experience that) but if you play high end games, u experience lags, The speaker is ok its good even id you lay down this phone, the headset mode is good, but the equalizer is not good enough, i dont like the output, The ui is good, simply yet understanding, but so many bloatwares(i prefer ,disable them, they are useless for me huh) The bat. It depends how you used the device, if for gaming and watching, maybe buy zenfone max, but if youre just only typical user i think it is ok

  • I also have the same problem.but,what i do is i reset my phone.after that,i try take screenshot and phone ask to save in phone or sd card so i choose sd card and it work until now.im sorry if my english is bad.

  • i experience also the system auto update of my zenfone go, after i purchased it and connect to my wifi, then it automatically reboot, and installing apps then its ok , after a while it will reboot again, so i factory reset it(cause it install the update already ,i think it needs to be, cause the system update is pack of firmware and kernel version that needs to be hard reset after installation to be implemented on the chipset or hardware of the device) right now, my devices running smoothly, the price is right for this phone, you buy what you get, but for my personal experience, the battery is a downside here, if your a gamer, always online. , but in average user, it is ok., guys, you can turn off the system update on your device automatically if you dont want

  • There is no moving option... For the first tym I'm facing such problems... Where are the apps saving...?? It's bothering me a lot. I want to move the apps to SD card.

  • Hi! Just want to ask if all of you Zenfone Go users are having problems or cant find the Quick Setting Menu / Quick Setting Customization option with this phone on Android 5.1? I am not a fan of the Zen Motion (shake shake gesture) to take screenshots, I would rather do it using the Quick Setting drop down. However on my other ASUS phones the Quick Settings option is available. Hope you can help.

  • Any One Can Answer If This Phone Has Already Have Update For Marshmallow?? Thnkx

  • I really need an answer for this.. First,this phone was great.But after a few months, I dont know what I did wrong but my youtube, playstore, google, email, etc cant connect..usually it end up saying "no internet connection". But, my whatsapp and wechat are still working though..It used to work well before, but now..im sure there's nothing wrong with my sim card because when I put my sim card into different phone, it works nomarly..My internet is fine..but why is it not working on zenfone go? And also, one of my friend bought zenfone go too but at a different store than mine, and she is facing the same problem as mine..

  • Hi, I had and have the same problem. If the Asus ZGO, keep rebooting, it will better to go to the phone house or something, and they re-install the genuine Android 5.1, but don't forget to put all your data on the sdcard, keep the scard with you. But, after the installation of the original Android 5.1, you better to ask to the guys to update the firmware, because, if you don't, and you are connected on the internet, the device automatically will auto-update, again. So be careful. You can also download the drive on the asus website. I hope that will help. Cheers guys. Link:

  • Today (March 25, 2016) My phone automatically download the auto update system and when it's done it says that I should install it.That's the time that my zenfone go keeps on rebooting.I tried to hard reset it but it really can't stop it soo I do remove the battery to stop the rebooting.

  • Why Asus Zenfone GO will not get the update of Android 6.0 marshmallow, like the others Asus devices???

  • Hi guys, i receive today my Asus ZGO from the warranty, because of the "amazing auto-update". Guess what, they re-install android 5.1, and all my data gone. The funny thing is: After 5 hours connected via wifi, the smartphone start to auto update (Again), and I was so upset (not again), and I disconnect the internet, and you can see the evolution bar, and tomorrow, I have to go to the shop again and the beautiful auto-update bar. I'm downloading in my computer the drive of the zenfone go, here the idea, download from the website, and try to install it, but only in the shop where I bought it. My advice is, disconnect the net until you don't fix the problem. Here's the link from the asus Website. Cheers guys!

My Zenfone GO, is the 8Gb version with 32Gb Toshiba SDCard, perfectly new and working 110%. The only thing they told me is, they to formated the smartphone and re-install the android 5.1. If the chipset is not dammaged. Cheers guys...

But I surfing online it always slow or searching pages not found. Have to refresh 1 more time it only be better. Anyone facing same issue above, did have solutions to solve? Please kindly sharing your method. Thanks you

  • After a month of using this phone I can give you a short review +Pros: Pretty good performance. Game: Asphalt 8 medium setting no lag, framerate drop at all. Solid multitasking with 2GB ram you have about 1.4 GB free after you turn the device on and 800MB free after use for a while (background apps like Fb, Messenger, Chrome, some games etc... take up the space). Good battery life. Discharge at 6h30 in the morning, I have 4h30 screen on time with 3G/Wifi on all the time, 30% gaming times (pocket rally, piano tiles 2, pokemon on gba to be exact), 40% Fb, Messenger, Instagram and 30% web browsing. Battery remains at 10% at 18h. -Cons: Silly phone app, you can copy nor paste anything in dial screen (@_@). When you turn on meeting mode which make your phone only vabrates, 3 buttons (back/home/multitask) keep vabarate everytime they being touched (can't disable it unless you use third party app). Some bloatware but you can disable ALMOST all of them. Some more infos: you will have ~ 11GB free of 16GB internal storage and you can't move anything to your SD card. Mediocre cam (but still ok for this price). Sry for my engrish and have a goodday.

  • How can I put my apps in the memory card in my Zenfone Go? please help me. Thanks!

  • When you press reboot, it removes the contacts.. You always press it but you probably think its restart

  • I have the same problem, I don't think that this is a sim card issue because I've been using a different phone before and this is the first time that it happened. I've already tried to do the steps you've given since last year but it didn't fix the issue. Maybe it is a know issue with zenfone Go

  • otg support ?

  • it is not the zenfone go issue, it is issue with your sim card, if you are using vodofone sim card this issue will be arised when restart the phone, try changing the sim card or go to sim card option and switch the sim card off and on again, your contact will be back.....

  • How to screen shoot😃

  • nice nice nice smartphone in India.best look and superstar camera.

  • Same for my phone...what happen?

  • I recently purchase an Asus Zenfone Go and I have to admit the phone is excellent :). I have not issues with the phone in terms of day to day usage whether it being phone calls, text, MMS or internet usage. I have used the phone as a Wifi hotspot with not issues, other than this model being 3G speeds only which reduces its hotspot functionality with multiple devices contended to it. With one or two devices hooked up to it, its fine for internet and emails etc. The camera is of a very good quality I have found competes easily with my iPhone 5s when it comes to photo's outside and almost as good in low light usage. I have installed a 32gb micro sd for additional storage for music / photo's etc. I find the Asus Zenfone GO to smooth scrolling when switching between screens / tabs and icons. Running a couple applications I find works well. Battery life is soooo much better with battery saving options running given many more additional hours of usage. I would recommend this phone if you are looking at spending around $250 price point, although I bout it for $216 w/ delivery from a reputable seller on ebay.

  • i already read all of yours opinion about dis fon....so i just want to know about de function n quality...tq all

Long press the home screen, then tap Preference, then tap Folder Icon, change the font inside there. You can also change the font on Home Edit page. Swipe the option below until you see the font changing option icon.

  • If you have (ASUS FILE MANAGER) on your zenfone go , You can download apps and move them to your sd card . (If you don`t have it , you can download it from google play store). OR, you can download apps from a computer on sd card to zenfone go.

  • That's why there is a 16gb version, which is priced only 10$ more than 8gb version.

  • Make sure your device is updated to the latest firmware version. For WiFi issue also check with the router you are using if that is getting connected to other device properly. To check if this is a WiFi hardware issue try SMMI test : How to Enter SMMI_TEST (test hardware) Go to Calculator=>type " .12345+= " you will be entered to SMMI_TEST

  • I think i know your problem. Are you using tempered glass screen protector? If yes, maybe the glass block the sensor when you answering the call, and the screen will turn black. You need to take off the glasa and use the normal screen protector.

  • Recently bought this phone, everything is great for its price. Glass is no gorilla glass so please put a temper glass or screen protector. It scratches easily. I have a scratch from keys already. Does anyone know how to block a number? I cant find an answer for blocking numbers... Thanks

  • no way man.no option for lockscreen wallpaper.only zenfone5 got the option.not for zenfone go.cannot select different wallpaper for lock screen and home screen unless u using third party lockscreen

  • bought only few days back. But from the very next day after buying, started facing difficulties with incoming. I can call and people hear, that's fine. But when I receive phone call, I can't hear anything neither the caller can hear at the opposite end. Somebody please help me out.

  • after trying a whole bunch of things it seems the audio problem is software related. Turning off the speaker enhancement option in settings seems to fix it. Hopefully some update will fix this feature, all the audio problems happen with this turned on. Other than this the phone works well so far, the only downside is the camera isn't that good at night shots, they come out quite grainy.

  • there is a problem in this phone...

  • I just bought one of these 2 days ago, it worked great for about a day then i started having a problem with the audio stuttering & cutting out constantly in everything from ringtones to watching videos. I took it back to the store & got it updated to lollipop 5.1 which seemed to fix the audio for about an hour, now its stuttering again. Anyone had any problems like this? Is it a hardware issue rather than software? I can't find anyone with similar issues searching google. Should i return it for a different model?

  • no problem...battery is depends on your usage..the rest of the function is great...worth it

  • Just tap an image you want to be your background and tap the three vertical aligned dots on the Top Right and tap "Set Pic as" Then tap background.

  • just google it

  • Thank you :)

  • yup removable batt but drains easily..

  • Plz tell me how to change the lock screen wallpaper there is no option of set as lock screen wallpaper .guyz if u have same problem follow me

  • I just brought this unit few this ago and for me it's worth enough like watching movies, play music, games, call, sms, etc. For me it's weakness is just 3G mobile data and battery capacity. However it's fine for me because I always connected to WIFI and I have Power bank. Hope it helps anyone planning to have this phone.

  • I said better battery life not bigger mAh.

  • Omg trying to look knowledgeable . U dont even get the point

  • Same question here. I want to know if it's corning gorilla glass so i won't have to put a screen protector.

  • No, please read the specs carefully. When it comes on battery 2070 zfgo, 2110 zf5 the reason why you can say it has a greater life is because zfgo use mediatek 1.3ghz quadcore while zf5 use 1.6 to 2.0ghz hypertheading. and there's no way zfgo will dominate zf5

  • Hi, Step to open the setting for call divert/forwarding 1-Open dial pad 2-See left side on the keypad 3 dotted line is appear 3-Tap the 3 dotted line 4-Option full screen dialpad and setting will open .

  • Hi all.. I just used this phone 1 month. This phone so great with the price. I think this phone better than zenfone 5. The screen is HD means so clearly and sharp like GS6. Battery life is good. Heating only minimum with heavy user compare to my GS4 is very heat at screen and back. Performance not bad. No any have lag. Playing fifa15 is smooth. Overall for me is very satisfying at mid range phone

  • @Neiji Yes you can just slect any image from gallery => set picture as => Lock screen wallpaper Your Asus Gallery App & Asus Launcher App needs to be updated to the latest version. Update your device firmware version to the latest built

  • @pinoy Ofcourse the battery will heat. there is intel processor inside. Its a quad core processor and all the four cores are active due to which it heats.

  • No bro..there is no option... do u have guest mode? Screen pinning?one hand mode?

  • There's no call settings, as call divert/forwarding, call waiting, etc. -_-

  • Hai i wanna ask.. Is there possible way to chance the lock screen wallpaper? So far i can only change the main wallpaper and the lock screen will automatically change to the same picture.. I dont want that.. I want my lock screen and wallwallpaper to be different picture >___

  • Guys y it doesn't have guest mode and screen pinning and nany lollipop features not available in this phone ? Anybody having same problem? Pls answer

  • Asus Zenfone Go, it has better battery life than z5, no overheating(at least less than the z5), and REMOVABLE battery, hooray!

  • @chupa It depends on your usage & even zenfone go is expected to launch with 5.1 so i think go will be better as compared to zenfone 5

  • @CoC He meant to say that Total of 12 Hours of battery backup will be available on the device after full 100% charge and complete usage such as browsing, watching youtube, gaming, etc.

  • @Pinoy With regards to battery issues i would suggest you to upgrade your device to the latest software, try to minimize the application which are running under background.

  • What do u specifically mean by around 12 hrs? Wifi + like browsing, youtube,etc?

  • Asus go

  • I need help. I can't register to my mobile date connection. It wont appear on my phone as connected. I just bought this phone yesterday. Please Thank you

  • Can u tell how long it last when using wifi? Ty

  • I have 1. Yes its removable

  • Bought 1 last week. Very very nice fon. Only prob is the batery. Drains really fast but only takes 2 hrs to charge tho. I always use the power saver.

  • Of course Zenfone 2 has better specs. You can see it even by just looking at the price. But, i was referring about its battery, heating problems. Anyways f u own both pls tell me how Zenfone 2 is "better" than this regarding performance and battery life. Ty

  • of course zenfone 2 is better than this

  • Is there any heating problems while using/playing? Pls those who uses this tell me

  • I read that it has non removable battery somewhere? Anyways im gonna buy this phone if it has removable battery? Can someone tell me if it has heating problems? I was choosing between this and Zenfone 2 laser ZE500KL

  • Its have the same specsification as lenovo a5000.. but on the different is the battery.. just go with the lenovo a5000 if u want to get more battery backup..

  • My son previously owned lenovo a606, and replaced wth zenfone go. Ang he said a606 can last 1 day even when heavy use like gaming wth just 2000mah battry, but zgo does not. I think this is one big setback of asus, battery usage. Almost all asus line up suffers from this problem even z2 with 3000mah already. Asus enginners should look at this very seriously otherwise they might lose completely with competitors.

  • Yes cannot move apps to sd. We have zenfone 5 and memo pad that can move apps, and we thought that zgo is the replacement for z5. I hope that asus will consider in the next update. And still battery drains very fast when gaming and using net even not with intel atom.

  • this mobile is normal

  • problem call setting, only clear voice using earphone.. service centre careless

  • I have this phone and so smooth to use battery however i think the web chrome does not support uploading pic #SAD but iam trying to download FB app.

  • Ya cant move apps to sd.that sucks maybe in the next update they will allow it to move

  • yes it has removable battery.........

  • Does asus go have removable battery. ?? . Those who have use this phone plz reply

  • Just got zenfone go for my son. He noticed cannot transfer apps to sd card. Why asus removed this?? Battery is just ok just enough for one day use. But bigger battery could have been better specially for gaming.

  • Just go for Asus Zenfone 2 Laser ZE500KL

  • Just go for Asus Zenfone 2 Laser ZE500KL

  • which has better battery between zenfone go and zenfone 5? zenfone 5 have intel atom so it drains the battery too fast but zenfone go has no intel atom but only a 2070mAh battery what do you guys think? help me i think im gonna buy this

  • lenovo a5000. zenfone battery really sucks.

  • How's the battery life? Can it long for 1 day? I really need an answer. What should I buy Zenfone Go or Lenovo A5000? Pls answer :)

  • This phone Support 4G or Lte line.Or just 3G only..

  • Redmi 2 is far better!!! 4G,,sd410..and bigger battery

  • GPU ?

  • Guys is there any heating problem with dis new fone? Jst wanna know.

  • For gamers, It not suitable for u coz the battery lifetime is only 2050mAH. Gamers shud pick battery lifetime 3000mAH & above. Overall specs compare with the price..well its WORTH buying.. :)

  • Compare specs to Lenovo A5000 vs Zenfone Go which is best?

  • All Asus Zenfones has FM Radio. :))

  • Does it support 4G?

  • hows the phone im plaaning to buy it tomoro

  • Is this phone has FM radio feature, please let me know, I will buy this today only..

  • GPU Mali 400 mp2? It is to weak for any decent machine. Run away from this device.

  • Can this phone used outside taiwan?

  • I have my zfgo about a day now,my only question is can i used this phone outside taiwan?

  • A pretty decent phone for it's price. A lot of similar specs with the Zenfone 5 but at a lower price. The Quad Core processor made spot for the lack of an Intel processor so processing speed doesnt have much difference as with the Zenfone 5. I also like how it's a bit smaller than the ZF5. Also, the front camera is also much better than with the front of Zenfone 5. Overall I would give it 4.5/5. Great buy.

  • Please tell me, 2G supported or not!

  • ya mee to my friend

  • please tell me abt camera quality

  • Too good phone Jst brout tuday . Lets c de future

  • good one... i bought zenfone 5 a year back. now also i feel good to work with it.. i simply love it .. they give good updates for all apps. camera is awesome...

  • no usb otg....:/

  • My asus fonpad 7 is still got every year a new update since android 4.2 and now has android 5.0

  • apple fanboys detected

  • What is Asus doing is simple, releasing too many phones/tablets and then after you bought them there is no support, no newer android, ...

  • The chipset is miles away from the intel in the ZenFone 5..Asus should have opt for sd410 instead

  • less powerful than the zenfone 5

  • The phone i thing will be a over priced device because it is coming with the mediateck quad and 2070 mAh battery, which should priced around 6500rs, but i thing they will do it 7K or 7.5K which is a little higher I think.

  • Battery is a joke!

  • This one is also good but yesterday, I read that Asus made new phone Asus Zenfone Deluxe Special Edition with 256 gb internal memory and compatible with 128 gb memory card, intel octo core processor..why they don't produce it for whole world such phone? I would like to see that one

  • Only MALI400MP not MP2 i think :)

  • Will the Phone be the same performer as it with Intel, and do the price will drop as the processor is dropping the performance from Intel Quad chip and the Media-tech Quad chip?

  • relese date aug 14 2015

  • Full spec :https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-Go-ZC500TG/s­pecifications/

  • Chipset: MT6580 GPU: Mali-450 MP2

  • ZC500TG-1C043WW 1.3 GHz + MediaTek MT6580, Quad Core Polymer, 2070 mAh IPS Display, 178 Degree View Angle

  • is this dual sim or not full detail is not avialable

  • A potential successor and replacement of A501CG. This phone is probably intended to fill the gap between Zenfone 2 ZE500CL and Zenfone C ZC451CG.

  • what is release date?

  • no more intel chip

  • asus is really good at updating their apps and os i never saw a company this good at updates but unfortunately you wont see anyother companies like asus do this thats why i bought zenfone and im glad with it

  • i guess this fon gonna be cheaper than zen5 because of mediatek

  • how about the GPU? its quadcore but can it support heavy games(specs)? it has also 8gb internal memory unlike zenfone 5 its 16 gb. what is the difference between zenfone 5 and this phone aside from quadcore??? the price is almost the same i guess with zenfone 5

  • And I thought ASUS would be smart and considerate enough to the consumers and choose Apple as their business model (without being as pricey): releasing less models that each makes more sense to provide better-focused aftersales support (especially updates). Now they seem to be turning into the second Lenovo that follows Samsung's footsteps: releasing a number of different models in each segment (entry, midrange, high-end) that canibalize each other, then end up abandoning support for the models that didn't sell enough. The buyers of the abandoned models suffer, and so would the brand's image. I hope it isn't too late for ASUS, though. They've really affected the dynamics a lot with their competitive pricing since the Zenfone 5. I hope it doesn't stop at just 2.

  • this good but when released? how much battery capacity?

  • Good.....quad core in same price of zenfone 5.....really well done...ASUS

  • Just buy original Zenfone 5 it is the same phone.

  • This is just the old Zenfone 5 with different name

  • MediaTek inside, Intel outside

  • maybe this will be the successor of Zenfone 5 Lite or Zenfone C for sure.

  • Seem like all the details surrounding this phone is not in just yet. However looks very promising, hope the price is reasonable.
