      The author studies the asymptotic properties of solutions of the fourth-order nonlinear difference equation \[ \Delta^2\big(p_n\,(\Delta^2y_n)^\alpha\big)+q_n\,y_{n+3}^\beta, \quad n\in{\mathbb N}. \] The main results concern the classification of positive solutions (necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of the coefficients) into one of six described classes according to their asymptotic behavior.
