Huawei has built a reputation for providing devices with strong hardware and consistent long-term performance.
However, consumer feedback on software updates has been varied. Some customers have experienced troubles with upgrades, such as the "Software Install Failed" error, which can make devices useless until rectified.
Despite these issues, Huawei continues to maintain its devices with regular upgrades that improve functionality and security. The company has also created its own operating system, HarmonyOS, to ensure that upgrades are consistent across its device ecosystem.
In conclusion, while Huawei smartphones are generally dependable in terms of hardware performance, software update experiences can differ amongst customers.
Staying educated about potential problems and seeking help as soon as possible will help keep your equipment running smoothly over time.
