Huawei’s latest custom OS EMUI 11 was awaited by many smartphone users due to its massive features and new changes to the user interface. The Huawei Mate 20 X is the company’s previous-generation flagship, which is also in line to get this latest mobile skin.
EMUI 11 Process (completed):
In November 2020, Huawei started the recruitment of Mate 20 lineup in the home ground including Mate 20 X (4G/5G). Afterward, the company released beta builds and then stable EMUI 11 for Mate 20 devices.
Talking about global variants, in December 2020, the company has expanded the EMUI 11 beta activity for Mate 20 devices in the global market. After months of testing, the stable EMUI 11 recently starts to roll out for Mate 20 X 5G.
Moving on, the company has now begun sending the official EMUI 11 version of Mate 20 X (4G) smartphone for all users including beta tester and users on EMUI 10.1 via OTA update.
This latest upgrade of EMUI 11 brings many amazing features such as super notepad, rhythmic ringtones, AI Subtitles, and impressive changes in the user interface (UI) like artistic always-on-display, long take animation effect, and more.
Aside from this, Huawei Nova 5T smartphone users are also getting the EMUI 11 stable rollout in the Middle East regions and experiencing a bunch of changes offered by the new EMUI 11 OS.

EMUI 11 CHANGELOG:
- Always On Display (AOD): AOD allows users to customize their screen and showcase their personal style by adding text and images to their lock screen.

You can mirror your phone to your laptop’s screen to improve your productivity with up to three windows readily available.

- System translation: Translate screen allows you to touch and hold the text on a foreign language web page with one finger, or on a picture with two fingers, to have the text translated. You can also adjust the area of the screen to be translated.
