After the months of EMUI 11 testing, Huawei has concluded the EMUI 11 beta program for most of its eligible devices in China and global variants are underway of beta testing. However, the company is planning to soon end the EMUI 11 testing by delivering stable versions.

On the other hand, Huawei Nova 7i has the capability to support EMUI 11 features but, there is no confirmation about EMUI 11 at the moment. Currently, this smartphone is running EMUI 10.1 and receiving further software updates.
