Honor 20 was released back in 2019 and the device came with Android 9 Pie out-of-the-box. The sub-brand from Huawei offers some of the best devices while the EMUI/Magic UI custom skin further enhances the user experience.

However, Huawei wants people to think of Honor as a separate, independent brand. But, Honor devices still receive software updates from Huawei. And now, the OEM has been rolling out the Android 10-based EMUI 10.1/Magic UI 3.1 update to its devices for some time.

Honor 20 received VoWiFi (WiFi calling) support in India along with some other features back in May. Also, we reported earlier that the EMUI 10.1/Magic UI 3.1 update is available for Honor 20 in other regions. However, the Indian Honor 20 units are yet to receive it.

Well, the situation has improved a little bit and the Indian Honor 20 units might receive the latest update soon. An Honor support professional has confirmed that Indian Honor 20 users will get the EMUI 10.1/Magic UI 3.1 update by July-end.

The announcement came on the official Honor community where the support professional also stated that the update has already been evaluated by the software team. Let’s check out the message from the Honor support professional:
