Chinese manufacturer Huawei has just launched the SnapTo handset in the U.S. featuring Android 4.4 KitKat. But it seems like the company has some other plans for its existing crop of smartphones as well as a few relatively old ones.

The company has released the full list of devices that will be receiving the Android 5.0 update which includes the Honor 6 Plus, while a couple of old handsets like the Honor 4X are included as well. Prominent among the devices are the

Customers will have some waiting to do though, as the company is not expected to begin the update rollout until June, starting with the Mate 7.  This will be followed by the P7, Mate2, 6 Plus, and the Honor 4X (Che2-TL00M) which will receive the update in July. The rest will be updated to Android 5.0 by September 2015 according to the company. Huawei will add its UI layering on top of vanilla Android, so don’t expect this to be anything like stock Android.
