TL;DR
- ASUS has apparently withdrawn the ability to unlock the bootloader on its phones.
- As per the company’s technical support team, Zenfone 10 and Zenfone 9 users
Well, there goes our hope for the Zenfone 10.
I got an Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 in 2020 and it already gave up last year by becoming very slow and randomly rebooting from time to time. Updates also seem to have stopped but the phone was released in 2018 so the obsolescence doesn’t surprise me, but what’s infuriating is that right now it’s pretty much garbage. I’m now using it only for work 2FA as the process to add my new Pixel phone to my employer’s 2FA is pretty bureaucratic and takes a whole month (and during that month you have to give up working from home since they have to disable 2FA on your old phone).
