New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….
Original story (published on June 21, 2021) follows:
Asus Zenfone 8 Flip offers so much value for money as it packs the highest end internals, a heritage of killer devices in the Zenfone line of devices while not costing as much as similarly spec’d devices.
It is, therefore, no surprise that many gamers and spec-heads are clamoring to grab themselves one of these units, the ROG Phone 5’s existence notwithstanding.
So, we know that Asus does pretty well when it comes to pushing out regular software updates, but really drops the ball when it comes to the big OS upgrades. (We hope that changes soon.)
Now, while Android 12 is still not in the picture for Asus for now, the company can comfortably focus on pushing out these patches and enhancements to its devices.
In line with this, Asus is rolling out an update to the Zenfone 8 Flip. This update brings with it a bunch of enhancements and improvements to this device as outlined in the following changelog.
– Optimized system stability
– Improved camera quality
– Enabled VoLTE & VoWiFi on Orange & Deutsche Telekom (Poland)
– Enabled VoLTE & VoWiFi on EE & H3G & O2 & Vodafone (United Kingdom)
– Enabled VoLTE on TIM & VIVO (Brazil)
– Enabled VoLTE on Orange (Romania)
– Enabled VoLTE on Vodafone (Hungary)
Evidently, the company is doubling down on the VoLTE feature for its devices in various markets around the world, a wise move as this enhances the user comfort for users in these regions. Also worth noting is the lack of mention of any new security patches.
This Zenfone 8 Flip update also brings camera quality enhancements and we can only wait and see user reviews to learn about how effective this update is in that regard.
The Zenfone 8 devices are in line for an update to Android 12 and you can learn more about that in our dedicated Asus Android 12 tracker here. We shall continue to keep an eye and update as and when we have new info so stay tuned.
