My Mate 8 still has Android 6.0/EMUI 4.0 and I cannot upgrade as the OTA upgrade is no longer available and the bootloader is locked
Honor V8, EMUI 8.0 just get the update OTA, 2.4gb patch..... Love you Huawei...
My MateSE phone got the update from EMUI 5.2 to 8.0. WOW! That kind of update is unheard of in other manufacturers. It has been stable and battery life is great.

Don't understand the content about beta testing. Some users of Mate 8 have been running Android 8 / EMUI 8 for many months.
Taffy Boy, 30 Jun 2018Oreo & EMUI 8 will not be coming to the Mate 9 if you're using the UK carrier Three.Tell u what, borrow your friends phone that use other telco as hotspot, wifi on your phone, boom! Got the oreo.

Procrastinator, 29 Jun 2018I'd love it for Huawei-Honor to show some love to other 2015 phones, like the Honor 7.
I feel... moreIt's not possible to expect such love. Apple do it, because charge it's own users humongous amount of money - for a phone about 200$ they ask the customer to pay 600-700$. That generate enough money for R&D + support from 3-4 years.
Huawei didn't charge you such money for Honor 7 and you shouldn't expect support for 3 years old device at that price range.
Anonymous, 29 Jun 2018Just a thought, the article says that the phones are receiving emui 8 'based on oreo', it does... moreIf u know EMUI number means, EMUI 8.0 is definitely Android Oreo.
I'd love it for Huawei-Honor to show some love to other 2015 phones, like the Honor 7.
I feel like it is still a very capable phone despite being an "oldie" and it should at least deserve a little bit more features than the ones it already has.
I'm not asking for the EMUI 8.0, but at least something so this great phone doesn't feel as abandonned.
I don't know if it's possible or not but, regardless, I'd still love to see something in the near future.
Anonymous, 29 Jun 2018Just a thought, the article says that the phones are receiving emui 8 'based on oreo', it does... moreIt's Oreo based, still Oreo 8.0, but is skinned with EMUI.
If huawai update software they gonna impress the users they have already own. if not there are lot other option users gonna run out of hand.
Anonymous, 29 Jun 2018P10 lite will still receive ? I didn't got it yet but heard it should be rolling...You have news about P10 lite at bottom of this article.
P10 lite will still receive ? I didn't got it yet but heard it should be rolling...
excellent job by huawei!!
Just a thought, the article says that the phones are receiving emui 8 'based on oreo', it doesnt say its getting oreo update independantly, just based on.. its good to see they updating their devices though.
