The smartphone has been launched, and is likely, to give tough competition to Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro in terms of specifications and the rate. The new Zenfone Max Pro M1 comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 chip set with 3 GB\/ 4 GB of RAM coupled with 32 GB\/ 64 GB storage. The phone captures enough momentum for mobile phone photography enthusiasts as it comes with a 13 MP + 5 MP cameras on the back with a 8 MP front camera to capture beautiful selfies. Another great thing about the device is that it is shipped with stock Android 8.1 Oreo and not with Asus&#8217; Zen UI skin. The 5000 mAh battery is enough to provide power for an entire day.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1828\" src=\"https:\/\/thedroidarena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/asus.png\" alt=\"asus-zenfone-max-pro-m1\" width=\"600\" height=\"403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thedroidarena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/asus.png 966w, https:\/\/thedroidarena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/asus-300x202.png 300w, https:\/\/thedroidarena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/asus-768x516.png 768w, https:\/\/thedroidarena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/asus-585x393.png 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Must Read:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thedroidarena.com\/install-android-oreo-galaxy-s7-edge\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Install Android Oreo on Samsung Galaxy S7 &amp; Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"toc_container\" class=\"no_bullets\"><p class=\"toc_title\">Contents<\/p><ul class=\"toc_list\"><li><a href=\"#Method_Unlock_Bootloader_of_Asus_Zenfone_Max_Pro_M1\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_1\">1<\/span> [Method] Unlock Bootloader of Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1<\/a><ul><li><a href=\"#Major_Update_Unlock_Bootloader_of_Asus_Zenfone_Max_Pro_M1_Easily\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_2\">1.1<\/span> [Major Update] Unlock Bootloader of Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 Easily<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n<h2><span id=\"Method_Unlock_Bootloader_of_Asus_Zenfone_Max_Pro_M1\"><strong>[Method] Unlock Bootloader of Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Whenever a new Android smartphone hits the market rooting enthusiasts start working on the method for unlocking bootloader of the device.
