Huawei P10 and P10 Plus get Android Oreo through beta release

Huawei seems to be following the trend of releasing Android’s latest operating system through beta updates. This time, it’s bringing Android Oreo to its P10 and P10 Plus devices. Huawei Mobile Romania posted on Facebook looking for owners of these two devices with software versions VTR-L09C432B180, VTR-L29C432B180, VKY-L09C432B181, and VKY-L29C432B181. It seems these devices will be getting access to Oreo first. If you have this, you’ll still need to download Huawei’s beta app and login with a Huawei ID. When you join, you’ll immediately get an over-the-air update. You can also opt out of the beta program through the app.

As a reminder, if you rely heavily on your phone, there is a risk using beta software. But if you’re willing to take the risk, you do get early access to some new features such as a EMIU 8.0, floating navigation dock, new look for the settings menu, and a 30-day recycling bin for the gallery. The update is pretty sizable at 2.61GB.
