Does it matter tho? I am currently on android 9 and I have yet to find something that dosent work on this version.
Longer security updates are much more Important than the os ones.
Thanks for TL;DR/DW... I reaaaaally liked the Zenfone 9 but the update cycle absolutely killed my decision and I went with Pixel 7 in the end which was also cheaper.
Looks like there was no reason to wait for the 10 anyways.
as a zenfone 9 owner, i can't justify upgrading. in some areas the 10 is actually a downgrade. but it's a nice device for new buyers, glad asus kept the 5,9" form factor.

nice to see the security update change, but damn those 2 years of OS updates suck 🤦♂️

The 2 years OS upgrade is ridiculous and a complete deal breaker for me.

Can never recommend this phone. Even a cheap redmi phone gives 2 years of updates.

I'm impressed they kept the form factor and the headphone jack
