HUAWEI reportedly testing Android 9.0 Pie on P20, Mate 10 Pro, HONOR flagships
July 23, 2025
GoogleandEssentialhave quickly deliveredAndroid Pieto their users, following the update’s release this week. Now, it seems likeHuaweiis joining the army of brands preparing for the update, testing it on four phones, according toMydrivers(h/t:GSMArena).
A company official apparentlyconfirmed on Weibothat the manufacturer was test-driving Android Pie on theHUAWEI Mate 10 Pro,HUAWEI P20,HONOR 10, andHONOR V10. Unfortunately, this is just an internal test, so you still have to wait a while before receiving availability details for your phone.
If news of an internal test is confirmed, it suggests that these are the most likely devices to receive Android Pie from HUAWEI first. you’re able to also probably count on the manufacturer bringing the update to other recent flagships too — such as the HUAWEI P20 Pro,HONOR Note 10, andHONOR Play— if the aforementioned list is anything to go on.
HUAWEI is obviously trailing Google and Essential in delivering Android Pie to its users, but it also seems to be lagging behind several other third-party brands at the moment.
Companies likeHMD Global,Vivo,Oppo, andXiaomihave all allowed users to participate in Android P beta testing in the wake ofGoogle I/O, but HUAWEI has been conspicuously absent. Nevertheless, the race is on now to see who’ll actually deliver the fully baked update.
We’ve contacted company representatives to confirm the story and will update the article accordingly when we receive information.
