HIGHLIGHTS

Apparently, Huawei revealed the name of Android P in a conversation with a customer who wanted to know if his P9 Lite would get the Android O update

Information circulating the internet reveals that the next version of Android could be called Android Pistachio. This could be a mistake or an assumption as Google has always named Android versions after desserts and Pistachio definitely isn’t a dessert. During a conversation with a customer who wanted to know if his P9 Lite would receive the Android O update, Huawei revealed the name of Android P as Pistachio. Previous information circulating the internet did suggest that the OS could be called Android Pistachio Ice Cream, and this does seem like a more viable name for the OS. However, we will have to wait for Google to officially unveil the name to us.
