Asus ZenFone 2 Update to Android 5.1.1 Lollipop Might Come Sooner than Expected

The user used the ZE551ML model for the experiment and says that once he heard that the phone would be Intel-based, the idea of running it on Windows have since intrigued him. He adds that the experiment he’s done is far from perfect, but he’s coming close to the goal. It is presumed that the other two models of the ZenFone 2 can also support Windows 7 although no experiment using the two models have been done yet.

The developer also shared the tools needed and the step-by-step procedure to allow the smartphone to run on Windows 7, adding that he didn’t experience major bugs during the installation of the OS and that the phone can possibly run on Windows 8 by following the same process.

Although some users don’t see the logic and practicality with running phones on an operating system that supports PC and laptops, enthusiasts and techies have definitely welcomed the idea with open arms.

Many users have praised ycavan’s effort to bring about a new arena of development for the phone. Some users even suggest that soon enough, the device might be able to run on Windows 10, once the latest operating system from Microsoft comes out at the end of this month.

  1. 5.1.1 lollipop update will be great for zenfone 2 since android 5.0 has bugs, such as battery drain through it’s processor though you’re on standby mode. Another 1 is the memory.

  2. Its very difficult to use the camera as it takes long time double flash and night camera is to bad may be software problem … but expect tha all is good … when will i get update to Android version 5.1.1….

  3. I’m hoping they will also release 5.1.1 for their memopad line of tablets, 5.0 is the latest update and it’s pretty buggy. If they don’t release it soon I’ll probably sell it and get another device that’s rootable/rom-friendly like a Nexus or similar.

  4. It’s been 3 months since the article and still no update to lollipop 5.1.1
