Security updates ended May 2026 . Updates came out even after the end date

The support period the maker announced is over, but it still released an update on October 22, 2026.

The maker’s pages disagree: it says support for this model has ended, but its minimum support period for products sold in the UK still runs until at least December 31, 2026.

The maker’s pages disagree: it says support for this model has ended, but its minimum support period for products sold in Singapore still runs until at least December 30, 2026.

Dates and sources

Dates and sources

The maker’s announced end date (May 2026) stays, but the maker released firmware afterwards (October 2026), so this page doesn’t say fixes have stopped.

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 15, 2026).

Key dates

Release
October 2022 · estimate
How I calculated it: Month of ASUS's own press release (dated 2022-10-25) announcing the availability of this model. ASUS does not state an exact on-sale date; the release date is used as the launch month.
Last update
October 22, 2026 · version 3.0.0.4.388_25207
End of support
May 15, 2026 · calculated by us from the maker’s data
How 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 3.0.0.4.388_25206. ASUS gives no separate date, so we use that final firmware’s release date (2026-05-15).
