Huwaei has released the Android 10 for a few devices and has revealed a timeline/schedule to update its devices. Well, the Huawei P20 lite was not present in the list.
Following this, some Huawei P20 lite have also signed a petition to bring the Android 10 update for P20 lite (Nova 3e). Well, Huawei India’s twitter handle replied to a user saying the updates for the device have been stopped due to hardware specifications.

We would like to inform you that the updates for the device has been stopped due to hardware specifications as the mother board cannot take more updates hence it is a risk for rolling the updates which may harm your device. We appreciate your understanding and patience.
