I love everything about the zenfones except Asus not allowing bootloader unlocking. Deal breaker.

Whaat? I'm sending this comment from a Zenfone 9 with an unlocked bootloader. It's not too difficult

Look up the recent drama with Asus. They halted their bootloader unlockong server (which should exist) since mid-last year.

Oh shit I missed that news completely. I got mine in April and rooted it right away. Thanks for the heads up. I'm going to block updates and really avoid a full reset
