Asus has started rolling out Android 13 to its flagship Zenfone 9. On Reddit, a French user claims to have received it on his model, so be sure to check yours. Be careful though: several Internet users mention autonomy problems following the update.
Tested and approved by Frandroid, in particular for its format, its power or its autonomy for a compact smartphone, the Asus Zenfone 9 is finally sailing towards new software horizons by welcoming the latest version of Android, I named Android 13. The Taiwanese brand has started rolling out this major update in several countries around the world. On a thread visible on Reddit, users from Romania, the United States, Australia, Germany and even France say that they have received Android 13 on their model.
An autonomy that would take a hit
GSM Arena was also able to download it: it is the update WW_33.0804.2060.65, which also includes the December 5 security patch.
Going through the various comments on the Reddit thread, it is worth highlighting a point of concern: several people are complaining about the battery life of the phone following the installation of Android 13.
A return to normal observed
Battery percentages would melt like snow in the sun, at least initially. Another Internet user explains that the autonomy then stabilizes, to return to its former level. In short, perhaps do not be surprised if this little mishap happens to you.
Asus should then take advantage of the month of January 2023 to update its Zenfone 8. If you are curious or curious about the novelties brought by Android 13, a complete file summarizes them for you and also addresses the calendar of all the other manufacturers.
