    Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 Starts Receiving Android Pie Beta Update

    Asus launched the Zenfone Max Pro M1 back in the month of April last year. The smartphone quickly became one of the best selling models of the company owing to its affordable price and the features it offered. Asus has made an announcement on Twitter that it has started rolling out Android 9 Pie to the device, but there is a catch. The update is only available as a part of a beta program; users will need to register for the update on their device to get the latest software. 

    Android 9 Pie: What’s New?

    The current generation of AndroidOS, Android 9 Pie was introduced in August last year and brings about significant changes from its predecessor, Android 8 Oreo. The most notable change is the introduction of navigation gestures, which can be enabled manually in the settings. These gestures offer a completely new way to navigate around the user interface. Also introduced is the new settings menu, which is completely overhauled since Android Oreo. The quick settings menu has also been updated, with the option of selecting a dark or a light mode active at all times.

    Interestingly enough, some sources also claim that the phone has a triple rear camera setup and not a dual rear camera. This can be a possibility as none of the teasers actually show the entire camera setup. They always cut the phone at a place where the third lens os not visible. However, it is also possible that this is not a third sensor and is simply the LED flash on the back. We will have to wait till the launch of the device on December 11th to know more details about the phone.

It packs a massive 5,000 mAh battery, along with a solid build quality and some stellar features. All this combined, it is a great deal. Naturally, the successor to this phone would be highly anticipated and the latest leak has just added to the excitement. According to sources, the Zenfone Max Pro M2 will sport a triple camera setup on the back.

    The feature was made public by Roland Quandt, who is one of the most trustworthy leakers. So we can be sure that this feature will be seen on the upcoming smartphone.
