I've been using this for 2 weeks, its 4/64 and i got the latest fota update just last week (Security patch level 1 Dec 2018 - OPM1.WW_Phone-15.2016.1812.179-20181227).

Firstly using this i was disappointed by the camera quality and complained to the store but they asked me to wait for the update. Then came the update last week i stated above. The quality is quite the same. One thing worst is when you turn brightness below 50%, when you take picture and about to review, the screen will automatically turn dark around the photo. So, i can not get the exact view of what i have taken previously. Thats the most disturbing behavior of the phone.
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Real Life Review] kickyvivi:
Use google cam. Much better. The contrast, saturation and processing is very good.
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Real Life Review] alta94:
it always better to suggest the google camerw version when u suggesting that app . bcoz most of time they are incompatible
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Real Life Review] agbtopbgt:
Not really sure if installing gcam will eliminate the problem on how the phone view the photo just after you take a shoot. How much daily brightness you set on your device?
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Real Life Review] kickyvivi:
Links of the gcam versions with and without night sight working for me: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/...f/GCam-5.1.018-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.3b1.apk

For version with night sight support, use this: https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/GCam_Pixel3Mod_1.3_build.6.1.021.apk (selfie cam won't work with this version)

---------- Post added at 07:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 AM ----------

The brightness thing is not a bug. The camera is set to override the manual brightness settings to have a clear view of what you are shooting. When you exit the canera app it will revert back to the manual brightness settings.

Hello, when I take a picture, every photo of the application will do twice. Do not you know why?
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Real Life Review] Tyakrish:
That is because Google camera after taking a picture, processes the image and so there are two images... One is unprocessed and other one processed...
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Real Life Review] Petr-73:
Thank You.

Can it be turned off?
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Real Life Review] Tyakrish:

I'm successfully using the GPS driver with my Mobile Phone WM6 but have a question with regard to turning off the GPS device and turning it back on within my application.

Initially when I turn on the GPS device I use gps.open() then verify that it's open by gps.opened. Events are handled via the DeviceStateChanged and Location_changed event handlers:

Code Snippet

Private Sub gps_Location_changed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal args As LocationChangedEventArgs)

position = args.Position

Invoke(updateDataHandler)

End Sub

Private Sub gps_DeviceState_Changed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal args As DeviceStateChangedEventArgs)

device = args.DeviceState

Invoke(updateDataHandler)

End Sub

When I want to turn off the GPS device I verify it's still open gps.opened then use gps.close().

So, here is my delima - when I turn off the GPS device and then turn it back on within my app it doesn't seem to be firing the event handlers even though I test that gps.opened is "True" and then use gps.open()? However if I close my app then restart it - all seems to be just fine and the event handlers seem to work just fine.

Anybody have any ideas or experiences with a similar problem, this is in vb.net?

Thanks,
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] tiger.woods:
After reading around on some forums it seems that my problem might be related to the phone going into hibernation and turning of the GPS, anyone know how to keep the GPS device on even in hibernation?

I would think that Tom-tom somehow is achieving this so I guess I'm looking for a similar solution. hopefully someone has some insight on how it works.

Thanks.

TW,
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] horst-vario:
At the moment,

I've pointed a button to s2u2 and put there in the settings "don't suspend."

Actually from what I've seen, TomTom prevents the whole device from hibernating.

Hey. First of all thank you for the screen shot. Can u please let ur fellow Asus Users,that which sim card and which connectivity (2g/3g/4g) you use on your phone?.

[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Real Life Review] chirogan:
On screen time depends on how you use your device. If you use it for intensive processor task expect it to be less like that. Do you game? Do you have mobile Data turned on. Do you have tunneling apps? Do you have a lot of background monitoring apps? Do you have launchers? Then expect the battery on screen time to be less.

I get 10-11 hrs of screen time when i use it only for texts calls and browsing through wifi. Else. Lower.

Restrict the background activity of the Android System can help on random battery drain.
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Real Life Review] f4vr:
Restrict background activity for Android System should help a bit on the random battery drain during standby. But better check it on every restart because it returns to default.
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Real Life Review] RajeshChouhan:
Background task ?

I will check the "background activity for Android System"

As soon as I get the option to add image, I will update them, I am getting this issue from first day, so I have many screen shots

I went to Asus service center twice for this issue

Sent mail too

Service center people are saying the mobile is working as expected so they will not do anything.

I have formatted the mobile many times (also the chash partition)

i feel m1 is more battery efficient than m2

i used max pro m1 for around 5 months...and i used to get 13hrs SOT(normal usage with internet/wifi ON everytime) then i switched to m2 and now i get 11hrs or rarely 12hrs SOT (normal usage with 2 volte sims and internet on all the time)

according to processor m2 should be more battery efficient than m1 ..but according to mine and few YTBERS m1 seems to be more efficient

If i play pubg for around 2hrs then i get approx of 10hrs SOT
