Huawei Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro will launch with Android 9.0 Pie, says the EEC

When Huawei unveiled its Android P update schedule, it was a bit vague on the Mate series. We wondered if the plans included the Mate 9 generation, but at the back of our minds we also wondered if the upcoming Mate 20 phones will launch on Oreo or Pie. Now we have our answer.

The Eurasian Economic Comission (EEC) has certified the Huawei Mate 20 Pro and Huawei Mate 20 with Android 9.0 Pie (those also go by LYA-L29 and HMA-L29 respectively).
