Most notably, the update fixes the ASUS launcher crash bug, a video recording failure issue when connected to a Bluetooth accessory, as well as a bug related to NFC service.

Besides, not mentioned in the changelog is the fact that this update enables support for installing the Google Phone app from the Google Play Store.

The Google Phone app was initially available on the Google Pixel and Android One smartphones only, but it has slowly been making its way to non-Google phones as of late. While it was always possible to install the app through unofficial means, ROG Phone II owners can now install the latest version of Google Phone directly from the Google Play Store. This ensures that you also get the latest update delivered right on your phone without needing to check for it manually.
