    I love everything about the zenfones except Asus not allowing bootloader unlocking. Deal breaker.

        Look up the recent drama with Asus. They halted their bootloader unlockong server (which should exist) since mid-last year.

          Oh shit I missed that news completely. I got mine in April and rooted it right away. Thanks for the heads up. I’m going to block updates and really avoid a full reset
