Like every year, this time as well, the Android 11 is already out now as developer preview. Accordingly, in the coming months every OEM will be ready with their custom OS based on the same. Similarly, Huawei’s EMUI 11 which is based on Android 11 is already in development.
It is reported that the EMUI 11 will be launched with the Huawei Mate 40 series of phones around September 2020. It is also reported that there are a total of 34 Huawei and Honor devices for which the EMUI 11 or Android 11 will be released, officially.

EMUI 11 Features
Of course it is too early to discuss about the features of EMUI 11 when the Android 11 itself is in Developer Preview! But still there are some confirmed features that have been integrated to this latest update.
Gesture Navigation on EMUI 11
Well, this is neither specific to EMUI nor a new thing. Android 10 natively introduced the iOS like navigation gesture which has also been found in the Xiaomi’s MIUI 12.
[su_note note_color=”#D7E3F4″ text_color=”#728095″ radius=”3″ class=”” id=””]But unlike other implementations, EMUI has a sensitivity setting for the side gestrues that can be set to prevent false touches. This sensitivity is primarily implemented to prevent the false touch on the Huawei Mate 30 Pro which has a waterfall screen and the P40 Pro which has a curved screen.[/su_note]In Android 10 it is called as Navigation gestures, in MIUI 12 it is Full Screen Gestures, similarly, Huawei may call it something on the EMUI, but ultimately it’s just the same thing.
Below are some of the screenshots from EMUI 11 which has gesture settings control:
