ASUS ZenFone 4 Max updated to Android 8.1 Oreo with ZenUI 5.0

We’re currently on the fifth generation of ASUS ZenFone devices, but that doesn’t mean that previous models have been (entirely) forgotten. The ZenFone 4 Max has just begun receiving its update to Android 8.1 Oreo, which also includes ASUS’s ZenUI 5.0 skin. This is a few months behind schedule, but at least it’s here now.

This update carries version number 15.2016.1809.412. There are two release notes, and they don’t tell us much:

So if you have a ZC554KL model of the ZenFone 4 Max, keep an eye out for an 8.1 Oreo OTA. ASUS notes that OTAs are sent out in batches, so you might have to wait a couple of days to receive the update.
