Previously, Huawei started rolling out Android 7.0 Nougat update to the Honor 8 unlocked units in the Japan. Whereas now, the Nougat update is also now started hitting in the other countries. It’s a large update that measures nearly 2.23GB and also comes with EMUI 5.0 which first appeared on Huawei Mate 9. However, the update which previously pushed out in Japan was lower than 2GB in size.
Additionally, it also brought some optimizations related to the system, improvements related to stability, and better app versatility. At this moment, it is unclear that what else does the global update brings other than EMUI 5.0, since the changelog isn’t available. But we could assume that there are a lot of other changes included in the update as well.
