The Asus Zenfone 5 has been really making waves in India since its launch last month. This smartphone has a lot to offer for its price and is proving really popular. Now there’s a new Zenfone 5 update available in India, which is arriving OTA (over-the-air). The same update is also rolling out to the Asus Zenfone 6.

Just after these phones launched in India they received minor updates that included bug fixes. Now the new OTA update is arriving for the Zenfone 5 and 6 as V1.16.40.8_20140725_9834. The update brings various enhancements and further bug fixes for the devices.

Some of the changes for both handsets are enhancements for Beautification mode effects, the addition of a Quick Edit button, and the ability to transfer multiple files at once. Changes specific to the Zenfone 5 include being able to hide the PC Link option in Settings, additional support of photo location information in Gallery, a new easy recording security mode, and more.
