HUAWEI still working on EMUI 10 based on Android Q, software leaks for P30 Pro
June 02, 2025
With HUAWEI’s presence on theUnited States Entity List, the idea of the company pushing outEMUI 10based onAndroid Qwas cast in doubt. However, it appears that the company is still working on the next iteration of its Android skin, as EMUI 10 software for theHUAWEI P30 Projust leaked.
Over atXDA Developers, the team got their hands on the early beta of EMUI 10 and installed it on a P30 Pro. The team was able to determine that the software will almost certainly be called EMUI 10 and that it is definitely running on Android Q.
However, other than a few tweaks here and there, there doesn’t appear to be much aesthetic difference between EMUI 10 andEMUI 9, at least for now. The UI of the camera is slightly different and the new Android Q permissions feature is present but other than that it looks very much the same as before.
Granted, there are likely many different changes “under the hood,” so to speak, that aren’t immediately apparent just by swiping around the software.XDAis going to dive deeper into the software and publish its findings in the near future.
Interestingly, a tipster toldXDAthat the leaked software is actually fairly stable. Most major features all seem to work and in some cases, there are even performance improvements.
HUAWEI already announced that its line of flagships — including theMate 20 series, theP30 series, and even some HONOR devices — wouldreceive an Android Q update. However, this was before the company faced a ban from the U.S. so it wasn’t clear if that promise was going to be kept. It seems that because Google released the early beta of Android Q before the Entity List came into play, HUAWEI was able to skirt by, at least for now.
NEXT:HUAWEI Mate X delayed until September
