Brand New ROG 3 came with a battery with no charge

I just got my brand new ROG 3 strix edition and I am a bit concerned. First thing I noticed is that it had no protective film on the screen and the battery was totally dead so much so that it would not fire up until I had it on its charger for 5 minutes or so. Is this normal. I have had tons of New phones before and this is the first one that came like this. I am wondering if this particular phone has been sold to someone else and returned??????????

Not really they've improved very much in the past 1 year including for rog phones
As of now Rog 3 has been getting monthly updates
And as an avg expect bimonthly updates
My 2.3yrs+ Zenfone 5z is on September patch too right now by the way 🙂

I tried your method and it seems to work all the way to the notification but when I tap it it says update failed. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. The version I'm on at the moment is 32 not 78 could that be the problem,do I need to go through all the updates until I'm up to speed do you think?

The version is actually 17.0823.2007.32 not even 2009 ???? Go figure??? I may just have to wait until they push the updates through, but I will keep trying
