The led works for both missed calls and messages. Auto brightness works well.

Also the led light only works with missed calls ? And the auto brightness isn't good? Any fix for these?

Just picked up the Zenfone 8 used and had for about a day, thus far actually not that impressed.. fingerprint reader isnt good, 5g keeps dropping out, can only get unread app counts on certain apps, cannot change icon style.. the UI looks/ feels date...
