What is your model?

Then what's your mate 8 model? I think you'll get the upgrading notification soon.
Some friends told me that the hardware performance of mate 8 is poor for the new system Oreo. So, I have not actually made the upgrading till now.

Which country and operator are you using mate 8? I see your HD call (volte)
Works well with oreo. The battery I think is the strong point

I'm rocking the nxt-l29-c185. At this point I'm not even sure that we will be updated to Oreo. Back in the early days of Oreo I was advised not to update since the Mate 8 is my daily driver. Now I think I will debrand and move to the Chinese models that have oreo.

Same here, no OTA notification for me, I am guessing it is really discriminating support from Huawei for this device, US seems to receive all support and the rest of the regions just being on an endless wait.....will never buy Huawei phones again And add to the misery that they give our devs crappy source codes that only make their work a lot more tedious than it should be!

Performance is better but RAM management will be improved in the future updates because it's poor in this version.

I checked in HiCare appa and my location says China, I'm still on B167 and whenever I check for updates it says my phone is up to date.
but - changing to "china" will that not badly affect the language of the phone, or is all that "android" controlled ??
I am currently on LON-L29C432B156
will I benefit from updating through china ??
will I get Nougat 7.1 `???
Also, when I change to China - I receive a message saying: please log in using credentials used for registration in china.

When you hide the navigation bar, you slide up from the bottom to get it back when you need it.

Yeah. It shows as 7.0 -- all of the specs show up wrong. This is true with prerelease builds on other Huawei phones as well.

I use to be a "gotta have it now" and would flash pretty much any rom that came along, when I had the Dell Streak 5, and the Galaxy Note (1). Since I got the Mate 2, then the 8, then the 9, I haven't flashed anything but OEM official builds, haven't even bothered to root or screw with it.
For me, my experience with Huawei, their roms have been so stable, I haven't had the urge to jack around with it. I don't mind you guys doing it though, makes it easier for us old timers that don't want to bother with it anymore.

Me too. There really isn't anything else for the Mate if you wanted to flash at least officially or on here. But yeah, I can't really think of anything I want that it doesn't already have. Nothing I could really improve. I thought I was all 100% for the Pixel 2 but now I'm thinking Mate 10!

Of course, everything I want but even faster and longer lasting. Less body to screen ratio is always welcome too. Tmobile's new 600 mhz support would also be great.
I would want Wireless charging, then I would upgrade to the Mate 10, if not I will keep my Mate 9.
I would like to get a current Security patch though
@duraaraa
Hi mate,
What is the kernel number, is it still 4.1.18 or it got up to 4.4?
Do you actually feel any real life difference in general at all between Nougat and Oreo?
Do you think that stand up time/drain has improved as to the few wake ups restrictions in Oreo?
Anything significant that you like/hate or is changed?
Thank you for your reporting here!

The kernel version is showing as 3.10.20-20436-468, built on Sep 14. Security patch is September 5. Whether or not it's reported correctly, I don't know.
I'm not really using it as a daily driver, but it does feel a little bit different. Some of it may be because of Android O, some of it may be because of EMUI 6. It seems smoother, but that's so objective.
Drain seems better than before, but I haven't done an actual scientific comparison.
I've not yet found anything major to like or hate.
Some other people are installing this build now, so hopefully they will chime in with their opinions.

I was thinking the same thing about the Mate SE since if the 7X were to get updated I would assume the Mate SE would since it actually has more RAM/storage in otherwise the same phone.

Nice changelog, however still no changes to 5g support or anything said about the photochrom filter. Also I would've expected to see something about the AR issue but also no fix for that.....
I wonder if we'll see any of those "bugs" or "glitches" fixed but I start to think I won't hold my breath.
