The update comes with a new UI and gesture-based navigation features.

There's also the AI Shopping feature which recognises objects in front of the camera view finder, or through any image on phone, and allows s to directly shop it from Amazon.in.
EMUI 9.0 additionally brings a new Digital Balance dashboard that allows s to track device usage metrics and let them set the usage quota for each app. The update also brings Wireless Projecting, which provides a desktop-like experience when the device is wirelessly connected to a ed TV or monitor. s can project presentations, photos, videos or gaming to the larger screen directly from the phone.

All Honor 10, Honor View 10, and Honor Play s in India should manually check in Settings to see if the update has arrived or not. We recommend that you update your device under good Wi-Fi connection, and while the phone is on charge for a seamless installation process.
