While several Huawei smartphones should receive Android Q after its release, Honor only confirmed the update for the Honor 20 duo until now. However, this limited availability is likely to change in the upcoming days. According to a series of replies made by Honor India on their Twitter handle, Honor 8X and Honor 10 are also among the devices eligible for Android Q update.

The new info also indirectly confirms EMUI 10 arrival for the two handsets. Currently, there is still no information regarding the Android Q availability for the Huawei and Honor smartphones. Of course, it will be soon after the official release of the Android Q by Google that should happen in the next month or towards September.
