EMUI 12 rollout completed in West Europe [Listed Models]
Huawei has successfully completed the stable EMUI 12 rollout for its smartphone and tablet users in West Europe. The company started pushing off the latest EMUI interface in the respective region at the end of January 2022. To date, the Chinese manufacturer has fruitfully summed up the procedure.
The EMUI 12 rollout in West Europe initially began with Huawei Mate Xs and Mate 40 series. The device grabbed the new interface in January. Thereafter, came the Mate 30 Pro, and the P40 series. As per the rollout schedule, the Chinese tech maker kept on pushing the update with a gap of 8-15 days.
In the past few days, Huawei has dispatched the major EMUI 12 update for several devices including the old and mid-rangers. For instance, Huawei Nova 4, Huawei Y9 Prime, and the Mate 20 series.
Notably, Huawei has also turned its face to those models that were not in the users’ expectations. Such as the P Smart series, P30 Lite, Mate 20 Lite, and the Mate 10 series. Surprisingly, these devices never came into the spotlight of the eligible devices. However, these devices also get the taste of a coherent and comprehensive system.
EMUI 12 Features
Although we are well aware of what new offerings the latest EMUI interface brings for its users. Yet a revision is a must for those users who are still standing over the old software builds.
The EMUI 12 operating system brings a huge packet of eye-catching features. It brings on a comprehensive user interface that brings a modern look over the home screen. Alongside, users will find a bunch of functions such as device controllers, Motion Effects, Customizable fonts, an advanced Notification Panel, and a Control Center.
On the other hand, tools such as Device+, MeeTime, and Distributed File system easily manage the regular operations on the device. Moreover, it let you connect to different Huawei devices in real-time making the collaboration with your colleagues more efficient.
The Chinese manufacturer has started to rapidly roll out the EMUI 12 system to several of its devices, at the moment. Undoubtedly, the company will gradually expand this amazing software to all the Huawei fans residing in other regions.

Huawei has released the January 2023 software update for the Huawei Nova Y90 and Y70 smartphones in the global market, and this firmware clearly improves these phones’ security aspects for a better user experience.
Both Huawei Nova Y90 and Y70 runs EMUI 12 out of the box but it would be interesting if the company could have sent EMUI 13 instead of the security patch. Speaking of which, no one knows, when Huawei will rollout EMUI 13 for global users for the time being.
Coming back to the rollout, January 2023 security update for Huawei Nova Y90 and Nova Y70 comes with EMUI version 12.0.1.177 and EMUI 12.0.1.202. This update is suggested to install on all of the devices sold marketed outside of China and will appear in batches.
We suggest the corresponding users look into the settings > then open System & updates, followed by a Software update, and then tap on CHECK FOR UPDATES. You can download the latest firmware also from the My Huawei app.
You should know that the update won’t erase your personal data but it is suggested for you back up any important data before updating the device. On the other hand, the package will be deleted automatically once the installation succeeds.
