Huawei is slowly updating its smartphones to EMUI 10, and meanwhile slowly creating EMUI 11. We already know what to expect from it and what Huawei and Honor models can count on the new software version.
At the Huawei Developer Conference 2020, the company unveiled EMUI 11, the latest version of its mobile software. It also announced the launch of beta testing for several smartphone models.
These builds are reportedly based on Android 10, not Android 11 as expected. The company later provided additional clarifications on this matter. The Chinese giant first confirmed that some Android 11 features will be included in EMUI 11. This means that the final version of EMUI 11 will likely remain based on Android 10, just like the beta releases.
Due to the US ban, Huawei has been unable to partner with Google to develop its new software based on the latest version of Android. In a second statement, the company announced that devices running EMUI 11, which the company claims are based on distributed technology, could be upgraded to HarmonyOS in the future. However, this statement does not mention specific models that may be updated. We do not know if the HarmonyOS update will be forced or optional.
EMUI 11 beta testing has started for 10 device models: Huawei P40 / P40 Pro / P40 Pro+, Mate 30 (LTE / 5G) / Mate 30 Pro (LTE / 5G) / Mate 30 RS Porsche Design, MatePad Pro (LTE / 5G) ). Subsequently, this list will expand. And the new version of the user interface will come to more than 50 devices of the company.
