EMUI 11 for Huawei Nova 5T users in New Zealand, followed by March 2021 security update
Huawei is rapidly upgrading its previously launched devices over EMUI 11, the latest Android-based mobile operating system, across the globe as soon as possible. In the meantime, the company is also preparing to release HarmonyOS for general smartphone consumers.
Coming to Huawei Nova 5T smartphone, this device also gets the chance to participate in the EMUI 11 beta testing program. After completing the beta activity, Nova 5T beta tester, as well as EMUI 10.1 users, began to receive this major upgrade.
Since February, the stable EMUI 11 version is rolling out for Nova 5T devices. As one of Huawei’s most popular smartphones, Huawei has sold a huge number of units of the Nova 5T and because of its vastness, it may take some time to reach EMUI 11 in different markets places.
So far, EMUI 11 for Huawei Nova 5T touched the UK, Europe, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Philippines, and Latin America. And users from these countries started enjoying the latest EMUI 11 features.
Now, the EMUI 11 major upgrading is expanding for Nova 5T smartphone users in New Zealand and comes with new user interface changes including smoother animations, better multitasking, improved multi-screen collaboration, and other features.
Aside from this, the company has also released the March 2021 security patch for this device user that enhances security by fixing different levels of exploits and issues.
We advised users to first install this EMUI 11 major update on their respective Nova 5T device and further March 2021 security improvements for device safety.

Huawei Nova 5T Latin America smartphone users starts receiving EMUI 11 with new features
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.
Thanks to the tipster for this amazing information, Masterpiece.
