Moreover, the Huawei EMUI 12.0.0.270 (C432E4R7P4) September 2022 security update for Mate 30, aims to patch the security gap and provide a better user experience. All you need to compromise with 273 MB of your data to install it.

Well, users should appreciate Huawei, as the firm works single-handly on several projects to give users a better experience and satisfy them with their features. Working over HarmonyOS 3, August 2022 security patch rollout alongside the September 2022 patch.
But it’s a little unfair to the global Huawei smartphone users, as the company is releasing the new era of HarmonyOS operating systems for China-specific devices. On the other hand, global users still have to satisfy with the monthly security patch.
In comparing the Mate 30 smartphone, in China, the devices recently grab the HarmonyOS 3 beta update and in the global market, it gets EMUI 12 September 2022 security patch.
More disappointing is that there is still no prospect of launching EMUI 13. Alongside the HarmonyOS 3 to release for the global smartphone market. This might degrade the market value of Huawei.
Notably, other smartphone brands like Samsung take advantage of this situation. But Huawei is working hard to come back into the competition by developing its own technology for the devices.

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.
