Asus ROG Phone 3 has been well received by users across the globe simply because of its benchmark specs for heavy gaming.
The ROG Phone 3 has had multiple issues like black crush, device not charging, auto-brightness, ghost touch, and overheating.
However, this has not stopped users from pushing the device to its limits and now the OEM is rolling out a new update to the ROG Phone 3 with a bunch of improvements.

It seems that the OEM is working tirelessly to maintain the ROG Phone 3 as this update offers a lot of fixes for many of the persisting issues.
This is good news for Asus ROG Phone 3 users as they can now expect a more refined software support from the OEM in the near future.
Moreover, it must be noted that VoLTE/VoWiFi support was already enabled on the ROG Phone 3 in Norway but this update has now enabled the same on the ICE network in Norway.
