HarmonyOS 4.2.0.120 beta reaches Huawei P60 series with new security patch

Huawei P60 series smartphone users are getting a new HarmonyOS 4.2 beta update with the 4.2.0.120 version. Perhaps this could be the last testing build for the flagship lineup and the company may soon treat it with the official software upgrade.

It is worth noting that the Huawei 60 series HarmonyOS 4.2 beta update is currently rolling out for the first 2000 users who have enrolled in the latest software testing activity. Meanwhile, others need to wait for some more days to fetch the stable build.

All three P60 series models – Standard, Pro, and Art are compatible with this update. But make sure to have at least 8GB of storage in your phone before proceeding.

Huawei P60 series testers installing the newest HarmonyOS 4.2.0.120 beta update must have the baseline version 4.2.0.110 for a smooth installation procedure. We also suggest using a stable Wi-Fi medium to download the software package.

Concerned with changelog, the company is sending new interactive theme-related features, optimizations for apps’ interface, and a security patch released in April 2024. You can check the complete changes and other improvements below.
