Want to buy Zenfone 6 but worried about motherboard issue.

I'd really like to get this phone, but I'm concerned about the motherboard issue. I live in Japan but would be buying the North American version of the phone because I travel between the two countries occasionally and that's the version that has the most frequency bands I need. If the phone has the motherboard issue this would make it very complicated to repair, though. I'm willing to wait a bit, but would that make a difference? I don't know if the ones being manufactured now are any different than the ones from before they knew there was a motherboard issue.

The backlash is quite obvious considering relatively high failure rate. You don't expect to get a 5-star review from a user whose phone died after a week. Most people here seek best price to feature ratio so recommendations to buy chinese brands are natural consequence of that.

So many "USER" suggest not to buy this phone, and suggest to buy China's brand phone

Is it some "marketing agency" were hired to start FORUM SEEDING on zentalk?

Asus is actually Taiwan, not Chinese.

I'm purposefully bumping threads about this issue because Asus are pretending it's not an issue with these phones, even though it clearly is.
There's no China conspiracy here, in fact I'm looking at getting a Samsung A90. It'll be full of their bloat but at least it might actually work.
