I believe the update is rolled out in phases, you probably aren't part of phase 1 like myself.

You can still install the update by downloading the ZIP file in the link above and choosing local update in settings.

Just downloaded and installed V 3.16 on my NA USA red magic 5G. Okay....I just posted that third party launchers worked on the latest update....well, I take that back. After restarting my phone after the update installed...my Nova Launcher no longer functions properly. All the same issues as before still exist. Hitting the home button still jumps you back to the Nubia launcher. The default home launcher just won't let you change to a third party one. Disappointed once again as it was the number one feature I was hoping would work. I guess Nubia didn't test their programming out good enough.

I'm also on 3.16 and it works FINE for me. Using action launcher. Works perfect after reboot. Also, NO BATTERY DRAIN on 3.16. Battery is just as good as before the update!

I'm guessing it might be an issue with Nova Launcher on my RedMagic 5G then. I haven't tried using any other launcher since I really like Nova Launcher and it's features. Just disappointed cuz Nova works flawless on my RedMagic 3S and on my galaxy note 10 plus. But regarding the battery issue., I'm having no issues at all as well. My 5G is running as good as ever. I haven't notice anything different with battery drainage or charging. Thanks for your reply. It may be just fine for me to switch to another launcher.

Running Nova here flawlessly (now).

You must be doing something wrong or you missed the step to force the default launcher to Nova:

Create an activity widget in Nova that points to Settings>Default App Settings (first one listed). Launch the widget and be sure to set Nova as your default for ”Desktop”.

Thanks a lot for that tip. I was able to get Nova Launcher running on my end now. Awesome! As a quick tip, the reason why I was not able to get my Nova Launcher working properly is that under the "Nova Launcher settings" you can also set the default launcher to the Nubia UI or Nova launcher (Or whatever other launchers you have installed). But that would not work even if Nova Launcher settings say that the default launcher is Nova. You HAVE to change the default launcher under the Nubia Android 10 Settings to Nova Launcher and all works good after that. I missed that one step. Thanks for all your help. Finally I have my RedMagic 5G running the way I want it to now.

After a few days of testing , I can attest to the battery drainage increase to be only above 60hz,
I used regularly 90hz before the update and averaged about 6 or 5 and a half hours of use, now it's down to 4 average .. didn't test in 144hz..
After research I did the activity method to change the launcher and after a reboot It sticks, only remaining issue is that apps stay in recents after I kill them....
It's not as bad as I thought , I can mitigate it using 60hz but it's still a handicap.. Connected via HDMI to TV on gaming mode is still to be tested...
For me personally it's the worst update yet, coincidentally the 5s is coming out.......................
