Asus has confirmed its roadmap and schedule for Android 13 on its various smartphones. Here’s the full schedule.

Confirmed on Twitter today, Asus has announced that it will update several devices to Android 13 over the coming months from its Zenfone and ROG Phone series. Currently, Asus has Android 13 in beta only on the Zenfone 9, and the company says a final version will be available in December.
