Honor gives major software updates for its handsets first priority, and with MagicOS 10 beta testing, it appears the company may soon advance this strategy. According to a leak, the Chinese OEM may take this action in the days ahead.
According to DigitalChatStation, two well-known companies, Honor MagicOS 10 and OPPO ColorOS 16, will begin beta testing their Android 16 skins this month. The precise timeframe for this operation was not disclosed by the tipster, but it might start before the end of August.
In addition to OPPO/Honor, Xiaomi and Vivo can begin testing their Android 16 software version for qualified devices and search for new features.

In April, Honor revealed the Magic 7 Pro’s initial Android 16 developer preview. Only developers with certain features and enhancements have access to it.
The MagicOS version test for the Magic 7 Pro phone, which is based on the Android 16 Beta, was introduced by the firm in May. Again, this beta activity was limited to developers.
However, Honor may expand this software exploration pool with additional devices through the MagicOS 10 beta testing. Users may be able to preview the new features and improvements of the next MagicOS version thanks to this procedure.
Additionally, users of Honor smartphones will have the opportunity to comment on the software experience, report bugs and problems, and recommend any additional features or adjustments for the MagicOS 10 operating system, which is based on Android 16.
It’s unknown what gadgets will be included in this process and how the company will begin. However, as the month draws to a close, we might learn more information on this topic. Keep an eye out.
