EMUI 10 is already official at the Huawei Developer Conference 2019 event earlier this month. The company also announced the list of Huawei & Honor phones to get EMUI 10 update and the Huawei P30 / P30 Pro are the first to get the EMUI 10 beta update starting from September 8. It’s just three weeks for EMUI 10 rollout, but before that Huawei wants to ensure all of its eligible devices have been upgraded to EMUI 9.1. Regarding the same, the company has started rolling out the EMUI 9.1 update for Huawei Mate 9, Mate 9 Pro, and Mate 9 Porsche Design.
Huawei Mate 9 series users will really love this update as the devices are all-most three years old from now and might have lost hopes for further major EMUI upgrades. Moreover, the EMUI 9.1 will be the final update for the Huawei Mate 9, Mate 9 Pro, and Mate 9 Porsche Design smartphones.
Alongside the Huawei Mate 9 series devices, the Chinese smartphone giant is rolling out the EMUI 9.1 update for 5 more devices. This includes the Huawei P10, P10 Plus, Nova 2s, Honor V9, and Honor 9. Although the EMUI 9.1 update has already been going out to some of these in some territories, now we have a wide rollout.
