Per the update’s changelog, the Zenfone Max Pro M2 will see some camera improvements along with optimisation of the device’s audio performance. The update will also improve the fingerprint and touch firmware on the smartphone, along with improvements to the device’s display edge. In addition to that, the update is accompanied with the Android security patch to November 2018. Though, it is weird that the phone did not get the latest December 2018 Android security patch instead, since the January 2019 security patch is now just days away from launch.

But by the end of this week, most users of this smartphone will get the update. To install the update, you can either wait for the automatic notification, or you could manually head to Settings>Software Update> Update phone manually. For the rest, patience is key.
