It's my second time I've finally broken through all obstacles of the Chinese language and managed to subscribe for EMUI 10.1 beta. And it was worth it.
That was yesterday and today I received the shiny new beta update. As usual after installation, I firstly transform the appearance into pure Android (in my opinion there is no such flexible launcher as EMUI when you get the hang of it).
After adaptation, I started to explore my brand new device. It's a lot to try, I'm attaching some pictures for the first impression.

For those who want to try it, there is still time to catch the train. It's only for the Chinese model, you must install Huawei Club app from Huawei app store and crawl through Chinese instructions. Good luck.:D

Can you put instructions? I can't find anything in the Huawei Club app
Ok. Please don't be upset if the last part wouldn't be exactly accurate. The result is to be achieved by trial and error. It's hard to reproduce the exact procedure in Chinese and there are different highlighted links all lead to the final result. Below you have marked some of those links.

What is important:

You must be registered by Huawei as Chinese (you can switch this later back).
No Chinese sim is needed but you have to register your phone number for verification purposes.
You must be on 10.0.200 (if you are not, separate instruction is available for the upgrade).
You must download Huawei club app from Huawei store. Sooner or later you must register yourself with this club.
Follow beta application steps as you can see below. As I mentioned before there might be some errors incorporated and you can get to the same result from a different sequence of steps.
You'll be informed when you succeed. And soon after your beta license is going to appear in system upgrade settings.

What icon pack and themes are you using?
Theme is dark IOS from here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.deishelon.lab.huaweithememanager

customized and with sans fonts.

the icon pack is:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.natewren.materialthings

it's a paid version but I think that the free will do as well:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.natewren.materialfree

and the whole point is in limitless customization enabled with:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mixapplications.themeeditor

I've always had Google Assistant. Installed it from GPS. Only I can't use a hotword from any screen, I have to either open the Assistant or use it in Android auto. That's good enough for me.
And Huawei strict battery policy kills it now and then and I must open it again.

Like low volume
Dystroyed dolby
What is a low volume? Volume on the loudspeakers is just below the distortion level and the sound is good as it could be on the phone.
Volume on my wired earphones goes to the limit of the sustainable level.
On Bluetooth, earpieces are just loud enough but I guess that the loudness depends on the Bluetooth device a lot.
And yes, Dolby is active.

Besides, what I noticed so far is that 2 Google apps sometimes lags significantly after upgrade: Google and Gplay store. assistant with Android auto works flawlessly though.

And the camera is completely renewed. New functionality, new possibilities, better menu, similar to the new Huawei phones. I haven't had a chance to really try it yet.

When I get to step 6, the blue dialogue box is white, and if I press it I get a black screen with Chinese writing. I am already on 10.0.200. Thanks for any input!
Hello. What is your model number? And in what region do you have your Huawei ID? In my case I have the EVR-AL00 and the region I used was China for the process. Also I had debloated the phone but reverted it back to clean stock for the process (because I removed some stuff that didn't let me get the beta profile). Btw, I don't think the region matter because now with my country region I can do the steps and everything goes well as I posted. If you want I can make a screen recording showing. Let me know.
