Your Honor 8 Pro will likely receive a push notification for EMUI 8.0 OTA update, just select it and you would be taken to a download page. Before proceeding with the update, make sure there is at least 3GB of free space on your device.

It is also recommended to download the update over Wi-Fi and backup all of your personal data, including phone book, text messages, emails etc. in advance. In case you haven’t received the update notification on your Honor 8 Pro yet, we recommend checking for the update manually by heading over to the Settings Menu. As always the update could take some days before landing on your device because it’s an incremental rollout.

The EMUI 8.0 update brings important improvements to the Honor 8 Pro including VoLTE support for Vodafone and Jio users in India. There are some cosmetic changes to EMUI, a better system stability and an optimised battery life. New AI features like automatic photo scene detection, instant translation, and automatic UI optimisation have been added.
