Marking and strengthening the confidence that Huawei and Honor are instilling in their customers, we now see a brand new update for its firmware, bumping it to version 9.1. Previously, EMUI and Magic UI were both at version 9.0.1. After Trump’s banhammer, customers were frantic and it’s good to see that EMUI 9.1 and Magic UI 2.1 update just popped out without expectations or teasers from the company.
Before that, Magic UI 2.1 is essentially the same as EMUI 9.1 in its core but has a few minor tweaks and changes.
The new EMUI 9.1 and Magic UI 2.1 brings a new file system to the table which they name it to be EROFS, promising 20% higher random read performance and with GPU Turbo 3.0 built in.
The Mate 20 Pro and Mate 20 X also now has “moon mode” for you take pictures of the moon.
Both Huawei and Honor has sent out press releases of devices getting the EMUI 9.1 and Magic UI 2.1 firmware updates, hence we are aggregating them into one list:
