Android Nougat Beta Build for the Huawei P9 and Mate 8 is Available – Get it Now!

Android Nougat’s fifth developer preview was recently released for Nexus devices, but for the past few months owners of any other non-Google devices have been waiting to get a chance to taste some of that sweet Nougat. We’ve known that OEMs have been internally testing Nougat releases for their devices (after all, Google shares their work with their partners to ensure timely updates for all) and it seems that Huawei is no exception. Today, an OTA link that updates the Huawei P9 and the Mate 8 to a beta build of Android 7.0 Nougat has been captured that includes the updated EMUI 5.0 skin.

Mate 8 users can use the OTA link to update their device by clicking on the link captured in this thread over on our forums. P9 owners can use the OTA links captured in its respective forum as well. Get flashing, and let us know your thoughts on Huawei’s take on Android Nougat! Here’s a video of some of the features in action:
