We already know that Asus plans to update the complete Zenfone 3 and Zenfone 4 series to Android 8.0 Oreo. However, the Taiwanese company hasn’t shared a clear timetable for the update roll-out and it has only said that the update will be gradually delivered to the eligible devices until the end of the first half of 2018.
Thanks to a recent revelation by an Asus employee on the company’s ZenTalk forums, the Zenfone 4 ZE554KL smartphone will receive the Android 8.0 Oreo update this month. This employee didn’t give any other details, but if the update indeed lands this month, the Zenfone 4 ZE554KL will be the first Asus phone to get Oreo.
As Asus had stated earlier, the Oreo update will keep its Zen UI v4.0 on Zenfone 4-series (barring a few tweaks) and brings ZenUI 4.0 to the Zenfone 3-series phones. A recent leak has given us the first look at how the Asus ZenUI 4.0 will look on Android 8.0 Oreo.
To remind you, the Asus Zenfone 4 series was unveiled in August this year and is slowly being released in the markets across the world. The lineup primarily consists of six models – ZenFone 4, ZenFone 4 Pro, ZenFone 4 Max, ZenFone 4 Max Pro, ZenFone 4 Selfie and ZenFone 4 Selfie Pro.
The Zenfone 4 ZE554KL sports a 5.5-inch IPS full HD display and is powered by Snapdragon 630/660 processor. It also packs 4 or 6GB of RAM, 64GB of internal storage and 3300 mAh battery. On other specifications, there is a dual camera setup on the back of the phone with two 12MP sensors and an 8MP selfie camera in the phone.
