On A12 still can't hide/remove under keyboard where is option to choose keyboard (small phone, why need one more extra row for this? Why was so hard asus devs to fix it?) On A11 that was one of most unsatisfied things.
Notifications background ugliest have ever seen. - black or white, depends on phone's theme. Why there is no option for transparent?
Fingerprint scanner works about 70% of the times (crap). Came here from Oneplus 7 pro, where scanner worked 100%
Face recognition sometimes do not work too.
I faced 2 times after update to A12, when front camera indicator stays on after unlocking phone. Need to restart device. Both time was on dark room. Maybe camera still try to capture face to unlock or maybe green dot bug.
Lovely to see more options for AOD, now same 3 types.
I think, for Asus to choose 888 was mistake. Its a battery hungry as hell. I had Oneplus 7 pro, and way bigger screen can use for all day, Now for this small phone sometimes needs to give some juice over day. Very unpleasant. Cant make one day.
In my opinion Asus do a good job on snapdragon 888 compared to others. With small body, it can cool the temperature effectively. (Oh wait, I don't do intense games 🙂). Most people get Zenfone 8 because we want small phone with good hardware inside. Nowadays most phone all more than 6 inch screen size.
Are you stating with android 12, battery life become worst now?
For me, after upgrading to Android 12, the battery life is improved a lot (~30% in general). Everything remains very stable and fast.
Some people are not happy with the interface... me too! Very dull color without transparency and ridiculously large quicksetting tiles. But these are Google's choice, not Asus.
Im saying that battery way way better on A12, that was absolutely crap on A11. But battery life on this phone (which is smaller alot, then my previous oneplus 7 pro - same capacity batteries) is good, but not top notch.

Just received a small update this morning. Zenfone 8 Flip
Update the firmware to fix this issue:
https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZS590KS/UL-I006D-ASUS-31.1004.0404.81-1.1.25-2111-user.zip
Updated last night. 😁
Aaaaaand it's still here, full screen in YouTube Vanced and boom.
There is no mention of fixing this in the update list, so wait.
Oh how generous you are! I will wait.
Thank you, sir! 🤣
After latest update, still System UI force close error. YouTube fullscreen rotated.
I had it once or twice on a game after rotating the phone and never appeared again
So far I didn't have it after last OTA... But I will keep monitoring
Hi @tupatatapa ,
Thanks for reporting it.
Do you get the same error using other video apps too?
Could you share the video from your screenshot so that we can try reproducing this error?
I still have the bug with the proximity sensor when I call, phone app or WhatsApp. The screen is on on calls so I touch things with my year.
Latest firmware btw... Thanks.
Hi.

I'm having zero issues with face recognition or fingerprint sensor. Never have any misses.

Same here. Battery clearly better on A12.

I have a 8,000mah rugged phone. Zenfone 8 battery is much worse.
