This a strange one to say the least. I have a Nexus 7, Zenfone 2 ZE551ML and a Padfone-x so I'm certainly an Asus fan and I decided to buy the ZE550 16gb Zenfone 2 for my son. He loves it. I took it from him for a few days and put it in my bedside drawer. Yesterday I took it out to charge it with my THL 5000t charger (this is the same charger I use on my padfone-x without any issues). I left it charging for about 4 hours, tried to switch it on and found a crack in the lower left third that stretches almost all the way across the screen with that purple ink stain blob running up the left side. There is ZERO physical surface damage to the screen. Nothing. Not a scratch or blemish on the outside of the phone, front, back, sides, screen NOTHING.
The screen is blank now when it's "on" and it's also relatively warm. I can only conclude that the phone overheated and damaged the screen. Did a Google search and found something similar with a Zenfone 5 from last year I think. But I've never heard of it apart from that. The phone is less than two months old so it's still covered by Asus USA but the problem is that I'm in Africa and won't be back for another month or more. Unfortunately I get the feeling Asus are going to dispute my problem based on using a thl charger and/or saying I damaged the phone. I've ordered a screen anyway but I'm going to take it up with them tomorrow and see if they step up. Has anyone else encountered this type of issue with any brand before?
