Almost eight months after its release, only 5% of Android devices have managed to update to Oreo. The adoption of the system is being very slow, especially considering that Android P, the new version of the platform, is coming down. Huawei is one of the big companies that is trying to make a great majority of its models able to update to Android 8. Recently, the Huawei Mate 8, Honor 8 and Huawei P9 have achieved the beta.
Also, about a month ago it also landed on the Huawei Mate 10 Lite. Despite this, there are still devices that have not been able to update and there are doubts whether they will or not. Next we review the status of updates to Android 8 for Huawei phones. Read on if you are interested in knowing if yours is or will be on the list.
