{Disarmed} Asus ZenFone 8: Manufacturer is looking for Android 12 beta testers

Image
The Asus ZenFone 8 was introduced with Android 11 in May. And in my test , the device came off really well, you don't get pure power in a compact housing that often. Shortly before the rollout of the final version of Android 12, Asus started looking for testers for the Android 12 beta for the ZenFone 8. When Google has released the final Android 12 update, it will still be a while before other manufacturers, including Asus, can provide the final version of the new Android iteration for their devices. So if you're a ZenFone 8 user and can't wait to try out Android 12, you still have until October 13th to join the Android 12 beta program. In your smartphone you have to go to Settings -> System -> System Update, then click on the gear symbol in the upper right corner and then select "Participate in the beta test program". If your application is accepted, Asus will inform you by email. Note, however, that this is beta firmware and it is likely that the...

The custom ROM LineageOS 18.1 based on Android 11 now supports additional devices, including the ASUS ZenFone 8 and the Sony Xperia Z2.

{Disarmed} Asus ZenFone 8 review

Image
The Asus ZenFone 8 is the Android flagship that gets the least attention. Incomprehensible, because the model scores with many advantages that are otherwise rarely found in other models these days. The Asus ZenFone 8 was given to me directly by the manufacturer in color Obsidian Black with 16 GB RAM and 256 GB kindly provided. Thanks a lot for this! However, this has no influence on the test result. scope of delivery The Asus ZenFone 8 comes in a rather inconspicuous gray box. This looks like it has been recycled. Inside, in addition to the actual device, we also find a black bumper cover in a carbon look, a red USB C cable and the charger. And of course the SIM eject tool and a little paperwork. Headphones are not available here either, these accessories are hardly included in the scope of delivery of any manufacturer.

They may not turn out well, of course, but that ambition and originality is refreshing in a segment such as laptops where it almost always seems that all the fish is sold. For Asus, of course, this is not the case, and the firm has presented two surprising models that are even more surprising for the inclusion of a new peripheral that is designed for creative tasks: the physical dial of the ProArt StudioBook Pro 16 OLED and the touch dial. of the Vivobook Pro are great in concept: now it remains to be seen if they will convince users. Is it you, Surface Dial? Those who see that dial in these models will surely remember the Microsoft Surface Dial , that accessory that was designed for their prodigious Surface Studio and that allowed artists to have a potentially very useful tool to work with, especially in creative tasks . {"videoId":"x83xp81","autoplay":false,"title":"Here's ...
