We’ve known that OEMs have been internally testing Nougat releases for their devices and it seems that Huawei is no exception. Today, an OTA link that updates the Huawei P9 to a beta build of Android 7.0 Nougat has been captured (meaning they were able to find the source of the leaked update) that includes the updated EMUI 5.0 skin.
One thing you should know about the update before updating your Huawei P9: You may be able to update your Huawei P9 to this build, but chances are you may be stuck on it. Huawei would need to release an OTA specifically for this build to get you to a newer version. So even if you do flash it with minimal knowledge of fastboot (as you won’t need to use it for this), you may be stuck on this build and will need to either restore your phone entirely with HiSuite, or you may need to unlock your bootloader and to restore to factory software.
