TL;DR

  • As per the company’s technical support team, Zenfone 10 and Zenfone 9 users

Well, there goes our hope for the Zenfone 10.

    Those big companies usually don’t have great inter-department communications, we’ll just have to wait and see if it’s true or not.

      Yeah, hopefully this is just a whole misunderstanding, as there’s not much reason for them to stop allowing bootloader unlocks for the people that want them.
