While the new Huawei Mate 30 series doesn't come with Google services due to the company's ban from the US, its older models are still getting updated. Last year's end of the year flagship, Mate 20 Pro, is starting to get EMUI 10, which is based on Android 10. The said handset was expected to get the beta version of EMUI 10 in late September, so it makes sense that a stable version of the operating system is coming out now. However, the rollout seems to be in stages, so it hasn't shown up for users here yet. You should keep your eye out for the update to make its way to you soon, though. It's sized at 4.4GB with the build number "10.0.0.136."

On top of Best Buy Canada's leak of the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, PC Canada may have possibly leaked the pricing for the rumoured Nest Wifi device launching alongside the phones. This "new Google Wifi" is being referred to as "Mistral," and it shows up like that on the retailer's site with the retail price of $192.99. The two-pack version (the primary router and smaller beacons, we presume) costing $292.99, while the three-pack variant goes for $384.99.

But that doesn't seem to be the only Made by Google device coming to Canada, a device codenamed "Newman" was also seen on the listing. This refers to the Nest Hub Max smart display. Its pricing is set at $270.99.
