          @pDe76 Huawei did the honourable thing of making the bootloader not unlockable on most of their devices , past and present. This means installing an alternative operating to Huawei's offering is impossible. I won't say it is impossible to do, however most involved in the alternative device operating systems, tend to choose devices that are convenient to play with.

          Xiaomi Redmi Note 7.... And more...
          I have too many devices...

            Like @MrT10001 said, that's something to ask to Huawei directly.
