If you have an Android phone, you'll be familiar with the update process for Android versions: Google launches a beta, eventually pushing that to Pixel devices, before manufacturers roll-out to other devices about six months later.

Android 10 began to roll out from 3 September to Pixel phones. There's a system-wide dark mode, new gesture navigation, boosted security and more. Check out what else is new here.

To find out when, specifically, you will get the update and be able to try all the new features included in the release, keep reading.

Android 10 for other Android devices

Asus

Asus hasn't always been in the best position with Android updates - it can be a little haphazard. However it did have a phone on the Android 10 beta, so we know there's an update incoming for at least one device. 

  • Asus Zenfone 5Z
  • Asus Zenfone 6 
  • ROG Phone II

BlackBerry Mobile 

BlackBerry has been slow to update phones, even if it does manage to stay on top of security updates. The BlackBerry Key2 was confirmed to be getting Android 10 on its update path, but no official timeframe has been announced yet. 

  • BlackBerry Key2

Essential 

The Essential Phone has already pushed out the Android 10 update to open market customers.

  • Essential Phone

HTC 

HTC has only just started delivering Android Pie, and with the company virtually giving up on phones, we don't want to get your hopes up about Android 10. 

Huawei 

Huawei is in an interesting position. Having become the darling of Android smartphones over the past couple of years, increasing tensions between the US and China has seen business get more difficult for Huawei. The update on all these devices is expected to be part of the EMUI 10 update. Huawei had originally said on Weibo that it would be pushing the update soon after the Pixel, with reports that the update started in Europe on 15 November, but Huawei then confirmed the global timeline on 20 January 2020. Our P30 Pro in the UK has been updated.

  • Huawei P30 Pro - from January 2020
  • Huawei P30 - from January 2020
  • Huawei Mate 20 Pro - from January 2020
  • Huawei Mate 20 - from January 2020
  • Huawei Mate 20 X (4G) - from January 2020
  • Huawei Nova 5T - from January 2020

The following devices are confirmed to be getting the EMUI 10 and Android 10 update "in later months". That statement was made in January 2020.

  • Porsche Design Huawei Mate 20 RS
  • Huawei Mate 20 X(5G)
  • Huawei P30 lite
  • Huawei Nova 4e
  • Huawei P20
  • Huawei P20 Pro - from 29 May 2020

Honor

Honor has come forward to reassure customers saying that it will continue to offer warranties and updates to its phones. It has gone as far as confirming that some will get Android 10. You might get Android 10, but you won't necessarily get Google services on all devices. 

  • Honor 20 - from 11 March 2020
  • Honor 20 Pro
  • Honor 20 Lite
  • Honor 20i
  • Honor 8X
  • Honor View 20 - from 11 March 2020
  • Honor 9X - from 11 March 2020
  • Honor 9X Pro
  • Honor 10
  • Honor View 10
  • Honor 10 Lite
  • Honor Magic 2

LG

LG isn't the biggest force in Android phones, but the flagship LG G8 was on the 10 beta, so is likely to see an update in a reasonable timeframe. LG has said that it wants to speed up updates and it is launching an Android 10 beta programme including a new LG OS. That announcement says that it will come to a number of models - although the timeframe for the final OTA update hasn't been confirmed.

There's the loose suggestion from LG that updates will be within the year, but it's not clear if that's within 2019, or within a full year. 

  • LG G8 ThinQ - February 2020
  • LG G8 X ThinQ - February 2020
  • LG G7 ThinQ - February 2020
  • LG V50 ThinQ - February 2020
  • LG V50S ThinQ
  • LG V40 - February 2020
  • LG Q60 - February 2020
  • LG K40, K50 - February 2020

Motorola 

Motorola has fairly raw Android phones with little customisation, but that doesn't always result in rapid updates. However, it has a couple of Android One devices and has promised updates in some other areas. For the Moto Razr, the update adds a range of new functionality.

  • Moto One - From 27 March 2020
  • Moto One Power
  • Moto One Vision
  • Moto G7 - From 11 May 2020
  • Moto G7 Play

  • Moto G7 Power - From 11 May 2020
  • Moto X4 Android One
  • Moto Z4 - From 11 March 2020
  • Moto Razr - From 11 May 2020

Nokia

Nokia's record with updates is good. The company uses Android One on most of its devices and successfully updated most of its devices to Android Pie before anyone else. We'd expect the same for Android 10.

Nokia has also confirmed that many of its phones will receive the Android 10 update, and when they're due to land. Depending on which model you have, you could see the rollout hit your phone anytime from Q4 2019 through to Q2 2020. The Nokia 8.1 roll-out officially started on 10 October 2019, but the company has revised the timetable because of coronavirus.

  • Nokia 8.1 - from 10 October 2019
  • Nokia 9 PureView - Q4 2019
  • Nokia 7.1 - from 10 December 2019

Oppo has put the standard Reno in the 10 beta, however, so we know it will get the final version. Oppo has also published and updated Android 10 roadmaps for the update. The update will arrive with ColorOS 7.

Realme

Realme is the budget brand of Oppo and although it's just getting started in its global march, it's also on the Android 10 beta, so there's some hope for a rapid update.

  • Redmi Note 7 - Q1 2020
  • Redmi Note 7 Pro - Q1 2020 (beta from 5 March)

XDA Developers has also spotted that Xiaomi is now updating the Redmi K20 Pro in India and China.

Samsung

Samsung doesn't feel the need to update rapidly and in the past has been slow - but with Android 10 it appears to be moving a little faster. There's been a beta for One UI 2 with Android 10 and the stable version has started rolling out to some devices in some regions.

  • Vivo NEX S
  • Vivo X27
  • Vivo NEX A 

Xiaomi 

Xiaomi is also pretty new to global markets, but it seems to be taking Android 10 pretty seriously, with two devices involved in the beta, meaning they will get the update.
