New OTA update brings Face Unlock to the Honor 8 Pro
Even though Android Oreo 8.0 arrived in early February for the Honor 8 Pro and Honor 9, the much-anticipated Face Unlock feature wasn't included in the update for the former. However, owners now report that an OTA update fixes that.

The new firmware also brings the Android March security patch.
