Asus Zenfone 6 software update makes the camera even better

One of the many standout features of the Asus 6Z, and perhaps its more eye catching one is the rotating rear camera. The dual rotating camera of the 6Z mesmerised people with the things it could do, including taking panoramas without moving the phone and flipping a full 180 degrees to serve the duties of the front camera.

Now Asus has begun rolling out a new update for the flagship.The build number of the firmware is 16.1220.1906.167.

The new update for the device now improves on the camera performance and fixes bugs like slow or incomplete rotation, that some users faced. The camera also now rotates at a more consistent speed and the quick toggle to retract the camera is now moved to the first page on the quick settings.

The software side of the camera was also tuned. The Electronic Image Stabilisation (EIS) on the device now works better with video recording and the Super Night Mode now produces better textures in pictures.

The pictures shot by the Zenfone 6 now also display more accurate colours and improve on the noise reduction.

Apart from the camera, the new update improves the overall battery life of the phone and betters the call quality. There are also a few system stability enhancements bundled in the update.

You can check for the update on your Zenfone 6 under Setting/System. However it may take a few days before the Over-The-Air updates get to you due the rollout taking place in mass batches.
