    I use phones thrice its price as my primary device, but I still love 9X Pro for its uniqueness.

          On the past, devices under Huawei name had better build quality than Honor.

          Then, Why's that this one has (Metal Frames+Glass back) over P40lite(Plastic back+frames) i.e. Better build quality, higher storage but losing in 33w charge, macro to P40 lite.

              Got the September Monthly Patch ✌️

                Jay1977efc, 23 Oct 2021Why would it stand for Hulk 🙄The guy is pissed of as his Honor 9X Pro (Global variant) have not been upgraded to Android 10 leave alone Android 11.

                My 9X Pro is standing with Android 9 with July 2021 security patch with no further updates. So this is 2 years of security patched from release date. Which is what I think we will get.

                The phone have never been commercially successful globally due to the lack of GMS support after US trade ban. Hence Huawei/Honor have sell them at almost zero profit margin. The hardware part is superb with HiSilicon Kirin 810 & 6GB LPDDR4x RAM. As this model garnered almost no profit globally, updating the Android which costs a lot of money does not make sence.

                One has to understand Honor 9X Pro is a project of Huawei. A the project needs to bring in money so as to be further enhanced and provide more software updates.

                          Also, Is it correct to call it Huawei HLK-L42 OR HONOR HLK-L42?
