“If a smartphone's battery is your top priority, then you're going to be hard pressed to find a cheaper phone with better battery life. The Zenfone Max Pro M1 may not be perfect, but it's certainly a budget offering that can put its money where its mouth is.”

“A well-rounded smartphone greater than the sum of its parts and the pros outweigh the cons. The performance is first-rate, there’s the stock Android experience, and the aggressive pricing undercuts Xiaomi’s offerings.”

“The lack of NFC lets the phone down but if this isn’t important to you then the combination of large screen, amazing battery life and stock Android Oreo should be enough for you to consider if you want to spend as little as possible on a smartphone.”

Hi Rahul. What's the problem with the phone? Are you saying there are songs and photos when you first opened the phone? If I were you and bought a new phone with existing files, I'd return it ASAP.

Go to Settings > System > System updates to check for updates. Availability of updates may depend on your region, some usually get it late.
