Hi members, my Mate 10 Pro it's just got updated today to firmware 8.0.0.157 , it was a 3gig download, but the Android and EMUI hasn't moved on in version to even 8.1, what's going on with this phone?

My model is BLA-L09 and I'm in the UK on the 3 network.

I have to say for the price of this device when new, and the fact that version updates have not increase, I would highly recommend to anyone not to purchase Huawei again (I think the USA, and BT so far have a point).

Strange, how only Chinese models of this phone have moved on to Android/EMUI 8.1, sound dodgy.

If anyone has had a full EMUI version increase with this specific Huawei model in the UK, I'd be interested to know how they got it.

Thanks

Damn Google... For now the last version is the one you've got. It was just a google patch security even if it was sended like a whole android. Calm down, there are tons of smartphones who didnt got the Pie and this isnt the last of them. All that hate for Huawei, go buy a Samsung, you'll hate that too. ? Android Pie is rummored to be avaible OTA at the end of this month. The stable version of Pie can be seen on FF, but isnt still aproved for install.

I had, I and still don't understand there answers, or why things haven't been given a proper update version, no there is no excuse, Huawei by there own Chinese nature want to just keep selling new version phone, and not be so forward in updating there old ones.

Like I said ,this is one and only Huawei phone I shall ever buy, next time it will be Samsung or Sony.

Huawei series P20 and mate 10 are getting Pie this year, Samsung note 9 and S9 only gonna get it next year. So why is huawei different from Samsung? Is even faster. I don't understand this hate towards huawei. They play the same game as Samsung, Sony and all of the major brands. Want fast updates buy a pixel phone or one of those damm chineses brand like xiaomi, or oppo. Come on you don't know what you're talking...

That not been my experience with having , and using past Samsung or Sony phones, I've only experiencened incremental minor firmware bugfix updates, and then further along, more major update version moves.

I can only say what I have experiencened with having this Huawei phone, and apart from it's speed , and battery life so many other things have been shakey or don't work, like the 'ok Google' wakeup Voice assistant, that's never worked, homescreen going into landscape mode function was removed after first having the phone after a minor firmware update.

There have been so few updates come to me through OTG for my mate 10 pro, this one today was the first off this size, I had high expectations with this, but still the same things don't work.

I can't even say they were not aware of my issues, they were, I emailed them on many occasions, even spoke to them, all they said is it will get corrected on the next update...yeh right.

Nope, you can argue all you like, I don't see it how you do, so I wouldn't bother don't waste your time.

I have the same device and firmware, we won't be getting 8.1, if you check firmware finder you will see Pie (Android 9) has appeared, though it's not approved yet, this usually means we will get it as a system update around 4 to 6 weeks (if it follows the same patterns of previous firmware)

The fact that we might get Pie a tad earlier than even P20 makes me think that Huawei is a really serious company when it comes to Users bying their top tier devices... No mater how good the P Series is the Mate series is the Very premium one... It would take lot of resources to take us to 8.1 when 9.0 is here and what i'm thinking is that Mate 10 and P20 series will be getting the updates like a couple since they are very similar in terms of hardware. Patience my friend! in a couple of weeks Pie gonna land on our handsets

I don't even have EMUI 8.1 on my Mate 10 Pro, so what's your point? And EMUI 9 isn't Rolling out to all the markets
So you're whining and crying for 8.1 instead for 9.0??

If trolling would stink I'd be choking now

And u said you're C432 region so you'll get 9 in next couple of weeks....u troll

You clearly don't know the definition of "troll", and you did that "you'll get 9 in a couple of weeks", and people told me the same about 8.1, and here I am waiting, and before answering, use a dictionary so that you know the definitions of the words that you are going to use. Ignorant.

You won't be getting 8.1, the UK c432 seems to be at the whim of the networks, hence many of us have rebranded to EU c432. Direct your ire at 3 not Huawei.

But he's right u are trolling,people already running 9 all over he world including me and you're crying for old version of android?

And if you believe what "people say" then you're a dumb troll. EMUI 8.1 was never announced for Mate 10 pro.

Please deactivate your account RN. The world is ending. Go troll on other forums how world ends and back it up by "people told me world ends".
