In October 2014, Asus revealed the timeline for Lollipop update for Zenfone 4, Zenfone 5, Zenfone 6 and Padfone S, saying that the Lollipop update will be starting to roll-out from April 2015. The latest Android update release is still not rolled-out for the devices
Today the company confirmed the delay in releasing the Android 5.0 Lollipop update citing the issues in verification. Padfone S, which will be getting the Lollipop update by the end of May, is also delayed further. Zenfone 5 LTE variant is the only device to receive the Android 5.0 Lollipop update. How ever the devices will be receiving the update based on Android 4.4 Kitkat.
Asus on its Zentalk forum said, “Asus was scheduled to provide ZenFone 4, ZenFone 5, ZenFone 6, and PadFone S with Android L upgrade in the mid of May. However, Asus team has found some issues during verification. We decided to delay the Android L upgrade schedule in order to provide better user experience. We are currently working on the related issues and will release the upgrade as soon as possible.”
