We have stepped in the 10th month of this year and so is Huawei. The company has published the Huawei EMUI October 2022 security patch details for its eligible devices. Slowly and steadily, this new improvement package will start knocking on your device notification bar to provide you with an impressive experience.
The Chinese manufacturer was running on a very busy schedule in recent days. From unveiling the highly-anticipated Mate 50 series on the consumer platform to rolling out different HarmonyOS 3.0 beta versions with new optimizes for smart gadgets, Huawei was stuck in the depths of the tasks.
Consequently, this was one of the reasons we observed a little delay in the update distribution procedure. But, with the release of the latest EMUI October 2022 security patch, the company has proved that the wait for new updates ends here.
Another interesting piece of news is that EMUI 13 is on its way and will keep its legs on user ground soon. With some amazing and eye-catching features, Huawei is preparing the most iconic and minimalistic interface for its global fans.
Coming back to the October improvements, this patch holds numerous fixes and security amendments for the devices. It shields the internal framework of a gadget making it tougher for privacy-related threats and issues.

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.
