It’s barely two weeks since the ZenFone Max Pro M1 was announced and even though the phone is only available for purchase in a handful of markets, developers are already up to their old tricks.

A senior XDA member by the name Saktis_STi has already found a way to unlock the ZenFone Max Pro M1 bootloader.

What does this mean? Well, it means that users of the phone are on their way to rooting and flashing custom ROMs of their choice.

If for some reason after unlocking the bootloader of your ZenFone Max Pro M1 you feel like it wasn’t the best decision, you can still relock it, which is pretty cool. However, keep in mind that there’s nothing official about this method, so make sure you have no second thoughts before going down this channel.
