Hello,yesterday, to my surprise, I discovered that there is a new BIOS version 312 for my UM425IA, after three years of no updates. The official changelog is very vague: optimize system performance. Would it be possible to provide more context as to ...

Hello,I have recently switched my carrier from Freenet to one of the Drillisch brands (handyvertrag.de). With Freenet both VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling options were available, with the new SIM neither of them is. Who is to blame? ASUS, the carrier, or bot...

Well I am hoping for the one last update at least. For reference, Huawei updated the P30 from 2019 adding VoLTE support for 1und1/Drillisch network, even though the phone was not getting regular updates for months. Zenfone 8 is more than two years yo...
