Huawei P40 (EMUI 11) gets October update, EMUI 12 Beta opens up

Huawei has started to rollout an October security update for global units of the P40 series, especially in Europe. On the other hand, the company has also opened EMUI 12 beta for the P40 devices in the region. The Huawei P40 series with EMUI 11 is receiving October 2021 security update with EMUI version 11.0.0.226, 223, and 211 software for the P40, P40 Pro, and P40 Pro+ models respectively (reports Huaweiblog).

This software rollout is currently expanding gradually among the P40 series users in Europe and will expand for more users. In the meantime, if you are eligible to participate, then we recommend you to take part in the EMUI 12 beta testing. The latest EMUI version will allow you to test the newest feature design to enrich your user experience.

The EMUI 12 will also bring a new user interface design that reflects HarmonyOS. Although, it’s not the HarmonyOS operating system but you are unlikely to miss the OS in the presence of EMUI 12.
