Calculated ASUS’s firmware page marks this model as end-of-life without a date, so I use the release date of its final firmware (May 12, 2026).

- End of support
- May 12, 2026 · calculated by us from the maker’s dataHow I calculated it: ASUS’s firmware page for this model says it reached end of life and its firmware will no longer be updated, next to the final firmware 3.0.0.4.386_52102. ASUS gives no separate date, so we use that final firmware’s release date (2026-05-12).
