I would strongly reccomend google pixels and oneplus. In my expirience they have been the best i could ask for, had a Oneplus 6 and now a pixel 6 and i am very happy, they might have a “premium” price tag but i consider them an investment since i use them every day ( even for work, i do development ) and typically last a while ( my OP6 lasted 5 years and i needed to switch to the Pixel 6 for the new android versions due to programming ).

Oh… Sadly this one is not a Tier 1 manufacturer and doesnt just publish the latest version. I saw online that it was version 12 out of the box so if you truly have the 11 one, you might have been scammed. I would recommend not going with honor in the future ( thats my personal opinion, you might like the device ). Look if there are custom ROMs for it that might have a newer version

Which phone are we talking about, also have you done the updates? maybe its not from this year after all

Its still “wiping” data if we go stable after the beta is done?

Yes.
