Huawei Mate 20 Lite EMUI 10 (Android 10) update goes live in Europe

EMUI 10 rollout is probably the most important task at the moment for Huawei. We reported back in October that the Huawei Mate 20 Lite EMUI 10 (Android 10) beta recruitment began in Europe. 

And in a recent development, Huawei has pushed in the release preview of the EMUI 10 based on Android 10 for the Huawei Mate 20 Lite smartphone. Note that release previews are one step above than the regular beta builds however, the final stable release might be changed.

For specs buff, the Mate 20 Lite was released back in 2018 and packed in Kirin 710 chipset, 4/6 GB of RAM, 3,750 mAh battery, 6.3-inch display, 20+2 MP dual rear camera and 24+2 MP selfie camera setup.

Cut to now, with this update, the stable Android 10 based EMUI 10 update might hit the device sooner than expected. The update is arriving with the version number V10.0.0.148 and weighs in a monumental 4.04 GB in size.

So, we would recommend you to download the update package file over stable mobile data or a WiFi internet connection to avoid any issues with downloading.
