Asus ZenFone 4 reviews by real users Asus ZenFone 4

I got the T00I model or A400CG version as a hand-me-down from my brother 7 years ago. I recently found it again on one of my storage boxes and it's still working! I was able to update to Android 5.0 Lollipop before I stored it away last time, and every other software updates or tweaks are held up to that. The ZenUI still looks OK but it's sluggish now, had a bunch of bloatware that I had uninstalled or disabled to help the 1GB RAM and free the rest of the tiny internal 8GB storage. Using it now in 2023 both the cameras are terrible but back in it's time it was good to have at least. Wifi, bluetooth, FM radio, mobile signals, microSD, OTG, sounds, the tiny speaker all still work fine and the haptic feedback is still great. The removable and measly 1600mAh battery is now wonky and sometimes won't charge properly as it's showing it's age, microUSB charges quickly to full but to maximize battery endurance even on simple standby I had to turn on the ultra-saving mode so the full charge can be stretched to at least a day or close to the next day.
