Huawei has been running a beta program for the Nougat update for a few of its older high-end phones, and now it may almost be time for the finalized software to become available. According to a new rumor out of China, the company will in fact release the final Android 7.0 build for the P9 and Mate 8 tomorrow, on December 7.
The build number for the P9 will be B352, while the Mate 8 will get B552. The information allegedly comes from a bunch of leaked documents originating at Huawei, though its impossible to say if theyre legit or not. Either way, well find out tomorrow.
Huawei P9Theres one caveat here even if all of this turns out to be true. The documents talk about the updates release date for the Chinese market, so thats when devices sold over there will start getting it. Theres no telling how much more youll need to wait after that if you purchased your P9 or Mate 8 from another country. Hopefully the global rollout will follow soon. Huaweis previously announced update plans stated that the P9 and Mate 8 would receive Nougat in the first quarter of 2017. So if this early release pans out, it will be a nice surprise.
Huaweis Android 7.0 builds also incorporate the latest iteration of its own skin called EMUI. Version 5.0 is what youll see on top of Nougat and it is more efficient, secure, and user friendly according to the company. An app drawer makes its way to the launcher (as an optional setting) for the first time in history, and Huawei boasts that a user "can reach 90% of the core functions in just two to three clicks".
