A couple of weeks ago, Asus launched its flagship smartphone — Asus Zenfone 6. Now, just a few days after the phone’s launch, the company has rolled out an over-the-air (OTA) software update as version 16.1210.1904.115.
The update is aimed at enhancing the camera experience of the company’s flagship smartphone. It improves the performance of both Super Night Mode and HDR++ (aka HDR+ Enhanced mode) in the camera, which results in better image quality as well as faster image processing speed.
It also adds support for volume key controls in the camera app, allowing users to control the flip camera’s rotation, zoom, or capture a photo. You can pick the preference in the Asus Camera settings. The smart key can be used as a shutter to take pictures when you’re in Camera mode too.
The update has also improved the camera rotation stability, translation strings in Settings have been optimized, the default wallpaper and ringtone have been updated, and VoLTE/VoWiFi have been enabled for Taiwanese carriers.
Asus is rolling out this update to different serial numbers in batches and thus, this is going to be a slow rollout. So, it may take a few more days before the update reaches all the Zenfone 6 units.
