I'd say it likely will, but probably not until 2022. Though, there hasn't been any official statement yet, and stable Android 12 hasn't even been released by Google yet.
True..apart from Pixels, no other phone has 12 yet. But just wanted to confirm what's the history of ROG phones about getting the major updates. I'm just new to Asus.
Hmmmmm well.. that'd be disappointing. Spending a hefty amount on a handset aiming it to use for atleast 3 years and then getting just 1 update is a huge turndown!! I also googled a lot and looks like Asus only gives 1 major OS updates to ROG phones 😒
Sorry to be so drastic, but I don't think we have A12 .. they don't even fix the color bands after a year .. do we really have to hope to have A12? I don't think it will ever come. Now they will focus on the new rog5S and little by little they will abandon the development of rog 3.
I'm very sorry for my pessimism, but that's what I think about this.
There's already a Rog 5, and given Asus track record there might be a rog 6 with the 888+ or this year or early 2022 with the new Qualcomm soc. That's 2 generations. Seriously doubt it maybe custom rom but look at xda custom roms are pretty dead already. Doubt it.
no rog3 is a very special phone don't confuse it with 1 and 2 rog2 is garbage now it doesn't come with main software update. but wait and see Android 12 update will come for rog3
Hmm I want the android 12 beta for rog 3 start early this time.. but I'm confused if we will get and 12 or not... Hope dot os makes a custom rom if asus can't do it.
Redmagic, blackshark,legion are garbage in updates
If you're going for a gaming phone Rog series by far has the most stable and updated os, however slow it may be compared to a normal flagship but all other gaming phones fare much worse
For example Rog phone 2 is on July 2021 patch and gets an ota every 2-2.5 months
Red magic 3 (launched alongside rog 2) is dead on June 2020 patch (it's last update) basically a broken and outdated android 10 build
OnePlus has a lot of issues too after recent oppofication the ui is purely Chinese like cos if that's up your alley

Possibly never.

.....just killed the fun of buying a new phone
Before getting upset, I would advise to wait for an official statement.
This is what happened with the rog phone 2. A flagship phone in its day and just one big update..

Np..You are on track buddy. Looks like investing on ROG is not a good idea.
Even my older Red Magic 3 received 2 updates.
Hardware alone can't keep up the fun for long..Software is also necessary for a long term usage. Hope Asus realises this someday 😐😐
It will but not atleast for a year or maybe even few more months but it will
Hey,
Too early to comment. Stay tuned as soon as more info comes in. Thanks.

Not possible
Rog Series only Provides 1 Major Android Update
ROG 1 - Android 8 to Android 9
ROG 2 - Android 9 to Android 10
ROG 3 - Android 10 to Android 11
ROG 5 - Android 11 to Android 12(highly possible)
Just forgot about any other major update
Uhh guys will get only security updates and some bug fix upto 2 years or may be 3 years
ROG 2 users still waiting for Android 11
Also after 1-2 months ROG2
2 YEARS will be completed
So Guys Don't waste Your Energy asking for next Android Update
It's totally illogical
❤️
Yes it will get android 12 very soon
Is it SARCASM???
In my views it's just a waste of money buying an rog phone ... They just have hold on hardware not software..
Ain't gonna buy an rog phone in future and would suggest a big NO if someone asks me based on my experience with ROG 3...
I'm really disappointed with it
no rog3 is a very special phone don't confuse it with 1 and 2 rog2 is garbage now it doesn't come with main software update. but wait and see Android 12 update will come for rog3
You go use china made shiaomii every day you get a new bug and buy a dumpster or a rotten apple
Idiots counts Xiaomi in competition..
OnePlus ,Redmagic, Lenovo legion 2, Black Shark... Heard any of them
