ASUS has rolled out Android 10 stable updates to the Zenfone 6 and Zenfone 5Z. Now it is rolling out a beta update to the Zenfone Max Pro M1 and the Zenfone Max Pro M2, its popular mid-range phones from 2018.
ASUS promised the Zenfone Max Pro M1 would get two Android upgrades and it already got one last April when it was updated to Android 9 Pie. Since the Max Pro M1 will be getting Android 10, it only makes sense that its successor, the Max Pro M2 also gets updated. Both devices launched with Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box.
The beta update for the Zenfone Max Pro M1 comes as version 17.2017.1911.407 and weighs in at 1.6GB in size. The update for the Max Pro M2 arrives as version 17.2018.1912.409 and is 1.5GB in size. If you are interested in trying it out, you can download it for your device from the source links below and sideload it on to your device. This is a beta update, so it is expected to experience issues. It is therefore advised that you backup your data before updating.
Android 10 brings changes in the user interface, Dark Mode, Smart Reply for messaging apps, and a new navigation system.
