Furthermore, other devices in the Honor series have already been updated to EMUI 9.1 and if that’s their second major update after Android Oreo, then do not expect them to get Android Q unless somebody develops a custom ROM for it. Finally, it’s good to see Huawei still supporting their devices in such tough times and while the rumors of Huawei’s own OS which could soon replace Android is under development shows up anytime soon. Until then, Android Q is the way to go for everyone.
