New update of 450mb which only added a 1mb new powerMaster
Better release this 1mb file on playstore so no need to take risk of stuck in bootloop during update
Anyway NO-improvement I noticed  in performance and backup front. As mentioned in release note its only for add this powermaster.
POWERMASTER this app is just a addition on Mobile manager app. All features of mobilemanager again added in powermaster
One new feature which i found useful Double battery life(2x battery) which make 100% charge at 4.1volt previously its set at 4.3volt i will say it can improve battery life of set but on the cost of 30% reduction in runtime. Overall good option
BUT HIGHLY DISAPPOINT ASUS DIDNT OPTIMISE PHONE FOR BETTER EFFICIENT BATTERY USE.
Phone stay at high frequency without any need phone will suffer more now.
Before update SOT 8:47hour
After update SOT 4:55hour

Hi Yrs,

We always recommend to factory reset your device after you update.

Also try to recalibrate your device and check

To recalibrate battery,charge your phone to 100% without interruption.
then discharge it normally till 0%(phone gets switched off).
charge it to 100% in switched off condition and keep it in that state for a little more time.
now switch on your phone in charged condition and unplug when ASUS logo appears.
keep the phone unused for 5 mins.
you will get far better battery life as the battery stats.bin file will be updated.

Device will take 4-5 days to get stable.

Also follow the below steps

1. Lower screen brightness

An overly bright screen consumes more power and can be harmful to the eye. To adjust brightness, swipe down from the notification bar twice and use the slider. Extend your battery life, and protect your eyes while doing so!

2. Shorten screen timeout time.
To squeeze more juice out of your battery, you can shorten the screen timeout time so that your phone goes into sleep mode faster. Try changing the time from the default 1 minute to 15 seconds.
To change this setting, tap Settings > Display > Sleep.
To change Cover View screen timeout time, go to Settings > ASUS Cover > Automatic sleep.

3. Trim unnecessary background apps.
Prevent unnecessary apps you don't need from running in the background and consuming your battery by using Auto-start Manager. Tap Auto-start Manager to select apps you want to discontinue from running.

4. Use Smart-saving Mode .
ZenFone 2 has many extremely useful battery modes, one of which is Smart-saving mode. It provides extra toggles for brightness, a feature that turns off internet, and an Extend Standby feature that lowers battery consumption by efficiently managing your push notifications when your phone is in sleep mode.
Tap Settings > Power management > Power Saver > Battery Modes > Smart-saving mode.

5. Tap Boost from Quick Settings.
Have you ever wished for a single button that solves all your problems? When you tap Boost, not only does it make your phone faster, but it also lowers battery consumption. Swipe down from the notification bar twice to find the Boost button.

6. Choose Wi-Fi over 3G/4G Data.
Using Wi-Fi instead of a data connection will use less battery because your phone doesn't need to constantly search for the network.
To turn on Wi-Fi, swipe down from the notification bar twice and tap the Wi-Fi icon.

7. Turn off Location Services, Bluetooth, and NFC.
Don't be lazy! Turning off these services when you're not using them can extend your battery life. To turn these services off, swipe down from the notification bar twice and tap the Location, Bluetooth, or NFC icon.

8. Set up an Auto-switch mode schedule.
You can't be using your phone all the time! Set up a time interval in Auto-switch mode to automatically switch to a lower battery consumption power mode when you're not using it. To do this, tap Settings > Power management > Power Saver > Auto-switch mode. After enabling this feature and choosing your starting and ending times, we recommend setting it to change to Ultra-saving mode (the default).

Last but not least, don't forget to pick up a ZenPower (From select resellers or at http://store.asus.com/us if located in North America) for all your charging needs when you're on-the-go! Fast and convenient charging available at your fingertips, whenever, wherever.
