Today, however, it finally announced that Android 12 is now out for the Zenfone 7 and Zenfone 7 Pro, both released in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>The new firmware that&#8217;s rolling out is labeled as version 31.0210.0210.250 for both models (note that we&#8217;re talking about the Zenfone 7 ZS670KS and the Zenfone 7 Pro ZS671KS.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/05\/asus-zenfone-7-7-pro-android-12\/inline\/-1200w5\/gsmarena_001.jpg\" alt=\"Asus rolls out Android 12 update for the Zenfone 7 and Zenfone 7 Pro\"\/><\/p>\n<p>As usual with such over-the-air rollouts, the new software is going out to different devices in batches, and so it may take a few days for all the units out there in the wild to receive the coveted update notification. If you&#8217;re impatient and want to manually check and see if you got yours, you can go to Settings &gt; System and tap System updates &#8211; maybe you get lucky.<\/p>\n<p>Note that if you at some point want to go back to Android 11 from Android 12, you&#8217;ll have to erase all your data. So a backup is advised before you upgrade to Android 12, just in case.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from everything that Google packed into the Android 12 release, your Zenfone 7 or 7 Pro is also getting revamped built-in apps, &#8220;adjusted&#8221; Quick Settings panel, notification tray, and volume panel, and a system charging animation. Asus Safeguard has been replaced with the stock Emergency SOS function, and the Asus Phone app has removed the SIP calling function for some reason.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-source\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/zentalk.asus.com\/en\/discussion\/60617\/220516-zenfone-7-pro-7-ww-31-0210-0210-250-android-12\">Source<\/a> | <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/onsitego.com\/blog\/asus-zenfone-7-zenfone-7-pro-android-12-update\/\">Via<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-image\">https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/05\/asus-zenfone-7-7-pro-android-12\/-952x498w6\/gsmarena_000.jpg<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-link\">https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/asus_rolls_out_android_12_update_for_the_zenfone_7_and_zenfone_7_pro-news-54329.php?rand=119<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Asus rolls out Android 12 update for the Zenfone 7 and Zenfone 7 Pro Asus started its Android 12 update journey back in December with the Zenfone 8 and Zenfone 8 Flip, and it unfortunately took the Taiwanese company almost five months after that to work its way back to those phones&#8217; predecessors.
