It is usually a happy one for phone users when updates are pushed in a prompt manner. That’s how fans of the Honor 20 will likely be feeling right now as Honor has started pushing a new update to the Honor 20 in India.

The phone still runs Magic UI 2.1 so this is just an incremental update and nothing big. It comes with the version number 9.1.0.142 and is 4.16GB in size. The update brings Android’s July security update and some optimization to the Android operating system’s performance and stability.

The Honor 20 series was first launched in May and actually went on sale in June. It is pretty impressive that the Honor 20 is getting its first update quite early. The phone has so far turned out to be a popular one. In just 14 days after they were launched, Honor reported that it had sold 1 million units. The models were launched in India on June 11 and went on sale on June 25. We believe the sales have been impressive despite the uncertainty trailing Huawei’s fate as to the US government trade ban.

The popularity of the Honor 20 will no doubt be driven by a sleek build and powerful hardware, even though the pricing is anything but cheap. The Honor 20 is priced at Rs. 32,999 in India, which roughly converts to $474. The device features the same 6.26-inch IPS LCD panels with full HD+ resolution and a punch-hole design just like the Honor 20 Pro. It comes with a side-mounted fingerprint reader and is powered by Huawei’s own Kirin 980 octa-core chipset.
