OEM skin/software

[XDA_RealLifeReview]

Are you comfortable in your own skin? Is your phone comfortable in its skin? Rate this thread to express how you deem the skin on the Asus ZenFone 3 Zoom. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it adds just the right amount of features, it's visually pleasing, and overall it's additive to the experience. If this is a Nexus phone (you didn't think we hand-wrote all of these prompts, did you?) then use this rating to indicate how the latest version of Android looks to you.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Terrible ZenUI. Nougat update helped a bit. But it is just still terrible. Terrible color scheme. Larger than necessary buttons from drop down menu.

Despite the 1 star, I've grown to just ignore a lot of the stuff I dislike.

I use Nova launcher on all my phones, so I don't see too much of the ZenUI. I actually like their quick dropdown menu and haven't had any issues.

Upgraded to nougat, switched to nova launcher and now it doesn't bother me too much. I do wish the quick dropdown menu had smaller icons though, looks like it was designed for blind people.
