Honor 8 to receive Android 7.0 Nougat update starting January 16
Huawei Japan has just announced that it will start deploying Android 7.0 Nougat and EMUI 5.0 to Honor 8 beginning January 16. The update will be rolled out incrementally, so it will reach to all Honor 8 devices in Japan in about one month.
Huawei recommends that Honor 8 owners should back up their personal data before updating, as well as make sure that the phone's battery is at least half charged.
Aside from the usual new features that Android 7.0 Nougat will bring, Huawei also mentions it will add some system optimizations, stability improvements and better app versatility.
Here is hoping that the rollout of Android 7.0 Nougat for Honor 8 will expand to more countries in the next couple of weeks.
