While there are still flagship devices out there waiting to receive an update to Android 10 it seems that the midrange HTC U11 Life can now be counted as one of the smartphones that has actually started receiving the latest operating system. The HTC U11 Life, which was released in late 2017, is part of the Android One program.

The HTC U11 Life has reportedly started receiving the Android 10 update, with a user posting Russian-language information about the operating system on Google’s support forum. Users had been concerned that the HTC U11 Life would not receive any more software updates and by February there had been no sign of Android 10 for the smartphone.

However, the HTC U11 Life was launched with Android 8.0 Oreo and duly received an update to Android 9.0 Pie as expected. Even though the midrange Chinese smartphone only became part of the Android One program in September 2017, it seems an update to Android 10 is incoming.

The HTC U11 Life offers attractive battery life, quick Internet connection, and it comes with regular security patches and a relatively clean operating system thanks to its membership of Google’s Android One program. Owners of the Snapdragon 630-powered device will likely be delighted to learn that they can enjoy the new features that Android 10 brings with it.
