My mobile requirement was basically: as small as possible, which can fit in the palm of your hand, fast, not rushing. There were only 2 types of more powerful small mobiles to choose from: this and the iPhone mini. I decided on the Zenfone based on a good experience with an Asus laptop years ago (price/performance), the fact that I was used to Android, and the price, which in comparable mobile parameters was almost 2x lower than this Zenfone (I bought it on Alza 1.12.22 for 10,980 CZK, a discount of approx. 19 thousand. ), so I' m reviewing after a year of use. My initial satisfaction (including a trip to the tropics, it didn' t overheat there either), was marred by the experience that the mobile got stuck during normal activity (after less than 3 months. usage). The complaint was devastating, I don' t know how long the mobile was transported to the Ostrava service center. I know it was 56% charged at the time it stuck, and the service told me it was probably a bad charge (as they got it almost dead, but they never said when I directly asked how much; it was quite cold), and he wanted to solve the matter by sending an offer to buy the original charger (which, however, was already part of the orig. packaging and I used it regularly, I just didn' t send it to the service center together with the mobile phone - for some reason they wanted to send it with the charger as well. Trumpeters didn' t know that everyone who bought it had to have it). Just by the way, they then wrote to me that they changed the software. It came back to me frozen and charged to 18% after 3 weeks (sent to service and received via DPD), it took 3 weeks through several phone calls and clarifications. No apology. Since then, the Zenfone 8 has been working at 100%. Full satisfaction with my, admittedly not very big, claims. I use the 4G+ network, it' s quite enough for me. It' s lightning fast, I wish I had a laptop and computer like that too. I think that the Zenfone 8 was put into circulation prematurely without catching any flies, however, our Taiwanese comrades have probably already corrected their mistakes. So if I wanted to buy a smaller mobile now, I could recommend it, the price/performance ratio is good compared to the mini-iPhone, unfortunately there is probably no other competition.
