ZenFone V Live Android Pie update

  • Not eligible for Pie

The ZenFone V Live made its debut in 2017 powered by Android 7.1.1 Nougat and later towards the end of 2018, the phone was upgraded to Android 8.0 Oreo by Verizon Wireless. Being the budget phone that it is, there is no room for a second major OS upgrade for the ZenFone V Live, which means the best you will get are irregular Android security patches for probably a year or less.
