Asus started with the deployment of the latest operating system last year. However, the company seems to be a little slower in the headway. In the latest development, the ZenFone 7 and ZenFone 7 Pro are getting the stable Android 12 update. The lineup was launched a couple of years back with Android 10 out of the box.
