Well, I contacted #Asus support about my #Zenfone. I bought the Zenfone 9 in March of last year, when it was the latest model available. Support confirmed that both #Android *and* #security patches will case for it this year. I've owned this phone for less than a year and absolutely love it, but this is a complete fumble on Asus' part.
They also took down their unlock tool for it, so running an alternative Android is out of the question for now as well. Very disappointed.
Caveat emptor.
