ASUS seems to understand that many people interested in the latest version of ZenFone 6 are part of the same market as OnePlus devices, and that developer support is one of the biggest benefits for Android enthusiasts with regard to OnePlus devices. Root and ROM users opt for things like OnePlus 6T, partly because you can root it and ROM. Now, ASUS wants its ZenFone 6 to attract the attention of developers, so it sends phones to some of them.

First, an ASUS representative told us that the company had sent ZenFone 6 to Arnova8G2 (from Gcam, a carrier of fame), which has already resulted in a quick but approximate release. Owners of ZenFone 6 wishing to try can check downloads here (or here on APK Mirror), and we are told that it takes a bit of tweaking to get decent results.

XDA Developers also announced helping to select a whole list of additional developers who will receive the ZenFone 6 to boost homebrew efforts, including LineageOS, OmniROM, CarbonROM, TWRP, and a handful of people. others totaling ten.

Other companies like Huawei previously had development programs like this one. OnePlus was later killed and restarted his program. ASUS is only in its infancy and most of the selected developers have not yet received their devices. Nevertheless, for those who like to flash custom software or tinker with system-level details, the ZenFone 6 has become a little more appealing.
