Slowly but surely, Huawei is now rolling out the Android 10-based EMUI 10 update to Honor 8X owners around the globe, with users of the phone across Europe and Asia confirming receipt of the update. This will also be the last OS update the phone gets, making for a total of two.

Huawei has sent out the Android 10-based EMUI 10 update to its Kirin 980-powered phones, and the rollout is continuing with the company's Kirin 710-powered offerings. The Honor 8X is one of those, and the phone is now receiving the EMUI 10 update globally.

According to PiunikaWeb, users of the Honor 8X across Europe and Asia—the Netherlands, Czech Republic, Indonesia, and Pakistan—are confirming receipt of the EMUI 10 update. The version number of the update currently being distributed is V10.0.0.175, and weighs in at around 3.6 GB.

The EMUI 10 update has also been sent out globally to the Mate 20 Lite, although the P30 Lite release appears to be rather limited at the moment. Huawei has also confirmed that it's set to send out the update to its Kirin 970-powered phone, with the Mate 10 Pro billed to receive the OTA in Europe next month. Sadly, the Honor Play, a phone also featuring the Kirin 970, will not be getting EMUI 10.
