We’ll continue updating this list with new information
Huawei is still uncertain if its future phones will still run Android as official communication is yet to be communicated if the US Department of Commerce if they can use Google’s apps and services again and that includes Android.
Huawei is using this time period to get their current devices to have the latest software and security updates before the August 19th deadline of the reprieve.
However, the Chinese tech giant is working on its own Android replacement aptly called HongMengOS which is reportedly performs 60% faster than Android. While speaking to LePoint, a French magazine, Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei said that their in-house OS rocks a processing delay of fewer than 5 milliseconds hinting that it could be used for a multitude of devices not just for smartphones but tablets, desktop computers, IoT devices and autonomous cars.
We’ve also seen how EMUI 10 is going to turn out and so far it has been impressive and well constructed seeing that it is going to be out in the next three or four months.
Huawei will also update these 17 smartphones to Android Q when it is released.
