ASUS made an ambitious promise back in August 2017, around the same time when Android 8.0 was officially being released to the public. All of Asus's ZenFone 4 devices, as well as the ZenFone 3 series, were promised to be updated to Android Oreo. This was a very big promise, because many of the devices in both of these series fell in the low/mid end segment, and some even dated back to 2016. With ZenUI 4.0 onwards, Asus also promised to cut back on the bloatware, bringing down the number of pre-installed applications from 35 to 16.
