ASUS Zenfone 4, 4 Pro and Zenfone 3 in Japan gets Oreo Update

As days by Asus is becoming more active when it comes to Android updates, as now the Taiwanese PC maker is pushing out the Zenfone 4 (model ZE554KL ) and the two-year-old Zenfone 3 (with these two model numbers ZE520KL[3GB/32GB] & ZE552KL).

The update is over the air, and however, not all devices will receive it at the same time. Asus with this latest flavor of Android brings a toned down Zen UI 4.0 which strips a lot of bloatware as well as less duplicate apps. Apart from the less bloated UI, all the features of Android Oreo 8.0 will come to the Zenfone 4’s and 3’s. With new features such as the highly anticipated Picture-in-picture mode, new notification shade, and functions, auto-fill abilities, better battery life you should look forward to this update.

Moreover, the Asus Zenfone 3 marks a milestone for the company by receiving significant OS upgrades from Marshmallow to Nougat and now the Android Oreo which is outstanding software from Asus. Other mainstream OEMs shall take a lesson or two from the Taiwanese PC maker? We hope to see the same for the new Android P 9.0 by 2019.

Lastly, make sure you have 50% or more battery life remaining on your phone before ing and installing the update. If you haven’t received the notification yet, then jump on to Settings > About Phone > and System Software Updates to check for them manually. In the coming weeks, more regions around the globe could also see the Oreo update.
