Asus Zenfone 4 Android Oreo 8.0 Out Now!
Asus announced earlier that Android Oreo 8.0 will be released FOTA to their Zenfone 4 range of phones from today 29th December 2017.
The specific model mentioned is the ZE554KL varient and it is not clear whether the ZC554KL Zenfone 4 Max Pro will be included any time soon or not.
That aside however, let’s have a look at the improvements Asus have noted for their Oreo update:
- Update version: V15.0405.1711.76
- Release date: December 29, 2017
- Upgrade to Android O.

After OS upgrade, launcher has some important changes – swipe up to all apps, all app icon could be changed.
- More friendly setting UI design.

It looks like there are some nice improvements to expect from Asus’ Oreo update but there’s no mention of any camera improvements which is a shame. Hopefully there will be improvements in the software as that was one of the things that let the phone down in my opinion.
