Huawei P40 Pro (EMUI 12) starts getting May 2022 system optimizations
Huawei is sending May 2022 EMUI optimizations for the Huawei P40 Pro smartphone. As the name suggests, the respective patch brings new repairs and improvements to the device.
Launched in March 2020, the Huawei P40 Pro is the first device to grab the May 2022 optimizations in South Africa. Besides, the patch appears with improvements to the system in certain scenarios. Further, it extends the line of stability at the internal surface. Thus, confirming better user access to the functions of the device.
The newly built patch weighs up to 24.21MB. So if you are a Huawei P40 Pro user, then we recommend downloading the May 2022 system optimizations immediately as soon as it knocks on the door of your handset. On the flip side, users can keep an eye on the software update section of the device as well.

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.
