I am thinking to buy this Zenfone 5Z but I don't know if it's splash proof as weather at my place is variable, can it handle splashes?
I had Honor 8 Pro, it doesn't have any IP rating as well but it could handle splashes, can this one too? I don't have to take it phone under water or anything, slight protection is enough.
It doesn't have any IP rating.

For some time now I have the Meizu MX3 phone and I would be very happy if I can share my thoughts and my personal opinion about this really unique device . Meizu is very known company from before. So I think I don't need to write anything about them.
About packaging except the MX3 you get also the USB cable and charger. All accessories are in white color. I must admit because the packaging was very smart and cool packed, legal different from other.
Meizu MX3 is 1st smart phone in the world which has edge-to-edge design. In other words it means it almost without bezel or to be precise edges are very thin. So this is very cool because of that the device can be smaller with bigger screens. The phone is completely made of plastic, the build quality is high. The front side is completely protected with gorilla glass 3 and the back cover has hyperglaze finish. In my personal opinion the phone is really cute and I think you will also agree with me on this.
Meizu MX3 has 5.1 inch display. Display has resolution 1080 x 1800 pixels. The screen is very sharp and it has enough strong brightness including viewing angles. In this combination the screen gives about 412 ppi what I believe is really impressive. AsI said in the beginning the screen is also protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 with Native Damage Resistance technology. So in my opinion the screen in one word is perfect.
Alt.the MX3 is not the newest model it is still a good device these days. Because it has very powerful hardware under the hood like Exynos 5 Octa 5410 chipset with 2 GB of RAM and for graphics PowerVR SGX544MP3. From this you can see that this hardware is strong and in 99.9% you will be able to do anything you want to do. For example you can play any game you want if you like gaming also as an average user you can go to the Internet, check your mail or listen to the radio. I have also tested the device with several benchmark test applications and below you can see the results.
If you love to photograph then the Meizu MX3 is good choice because it has good quality camera. It has 8 megapixel camera with led flash. I photographed in several different conditions and in my opinion photos are good. Of course there are phones with better camera but if you are not to the mending then you don't need to worry about it. Also below you can see photo examples.
According to this blog GPS works out of box. You don't need to do any modifications and GPS does not need Wi-Fi or network help. So there are no problems. I am telling you this because many Chinese smartphones has GPS problems because of bad antenna or something else.
It has built in battery with capacity of 2400mAh. According to the Meizu it gives autonomy of 400 hours in standby mode with 2G connection and about 385 hours with 3G connection.
As conclusion I can say that Meizu MX3 is still good device with many good features. It has high build quality, really nice design, strong hardware, good camera and many other things. If you want you can go to the official website for more information and also you can like their official Facebook page.
Any questions please ask
thank you
One use case I have is to use the phone when running, some questions around that.
How good is the GPS with dual band and L5/E5a support?
The firmware reported accuracy seem to be around 3 m but that is like letting the manufacturers run the performance tests themselves.
Any real life comparisons?
(Many phones still have bad dual band support, Samsung s20FE is not supporting it all dor instance.)
How good is the splash protection?
No official IP rating, but there are few affordable IP58 phones out there.
Is it reliable to use in heavy rain for instance?
(No commitments from Xiaomi though.)
Splash protection is also for biking, the backpack is not waterproof in heavy rain.
Many sites lists the phone as having a barometer, but not all.
Is there any variant with barometer at all or is the baro just a typo somewhere?
Any user that has one?
How sturdy is the phone with an case like Nilkin Nature?
The ground is harder than the phone. Some phones are more fraglile than others.
The phone is a little too heavy really, but there are not much alternatives for size.
Slightly lighter phones like the upcoming Redmi Note 10 at 20g less is sure an alternative, but you can get the 10T Pro at good prices now and Redmi Note 10 is not yet available.
Need a tablet with good screen especially good whites to read
Both are more than good enough just for reading. Certainly Pad 5 will have the better screen due to OLED vs IPS and higher resolution within similar screen real estate (11" vs 10.61"). If you want to read outdoors, Pad 5 would be better as Redmi Pad brightness is limited to 400 nits only (still good for outdoor under a shade, but no direct sunlight).
If you only plan on reading, you should consider something with an e-ink screen
both are IPS with no stand-out quality to talk about, indeed for reading you'll want e-ink display, and no Pad 5 doesn't have OLED
Different telephones have cases that will fit the Asus ROG Phone.
These telephone cases would require some modifications.
But, they are better than anything available regarding protection in a drop.
The Fusion 5G from A.T.&T. has similar dimensions.
List any that you have compared the Asus ROG Phone to.
Thank you.
