Huawei’s official website also stated in their “Huawei Answers” page that all Huawei smartphones and tablets will continue to receive security patches and Android updates.
“Anyone who has already bought, or is about to buy a Huawei smartphone, can continue to access the world of apps as they have always done. All devices continue to be covered by our manufacturer’s warranty and will receive full service support accordingly.
Our most popular current devices, including the P30 series, will be able to access Android Q. In fact, we have already launched a beta developer programme for Android Q which is running right now on our Mate 20 Pro device.”
The 90-day lift of ban will expire on August 19, 2019, so we can expect the update to arrive very soon on the above-mentioned Huawei devices.
