The first update brought several improvements to the phone's performance, camera quality, and connectivity, along with the Android security patches for April 2021.

It isn't clear if ASUS is rolling out a similar update for the ZenFone 8 Flip or not. The company hasn't shared any information about the update on its ZenTalk forums, but we're told that it improves the selfie camera performance and fingerprint scanner performance. A representative from ASUS has also told us that the company patched the Qualcomm modem vulnerability in the launch firmware for the ZenFone 8 series and the ROG Phone 5 series.
