At the meeting, glory launched the AI-enabled personalized full-scene operating system MagicOS 7.0 and glory Magic Vs series, glory 80 series of new products, covering two major directions: software and hardware.

Glory CEO Zhao Ming said in a media interview, “As a strategic fulcrum of Glory for the future, MagicOS aims to break through the limitations of the device-centric standalone OS and bring a human-centric, cross-system, cross-device, cross-ecology smart life solution.” Based on MagicOS 7.0, it will also drive Glory to accelerate the attack from the previous cell phone field to the full scene field of software and hardware two-way synergy.

Zhao Ming revealed that in the future, Honor phones will be all-around access to MagicOS 7.0, and tablets, and laptops will also support the system of MagicOS 7.0.

Open cross-device and cross-system system

Along with the acceleration of the digitalization process, after the completion of intelligent and interconnected terminal devices, users face a new embarrassment: due to the diversity of smart device hardware and systems, these devices are still unable to interact completely and smoothly. For example, cell phones with Android systems, PCs with Windows systems and IoT devices with Linux systems are ecologically closed and it is difficult to collaborate with each other. It becomes a burden for users to connect and switch between multiple devices repeatedly.

MagicOS 7.0 introduces the MagicRing trust ring solution, based on a user-centric authentication system, which effectively connects devices of many different systems such as cell phones, tablets, and laptops together. The solution solves the mutual trust problem and also enables efficient interconnection – no need to have the same WLAN, no need to touch, devices with the same identity are automatically interconnected when they are close to each other, which is the industry’s first multi-device self-connection solution for cell phones, PCs and tablets. In addition, based on the MagicRing trust ring, MagicOS 7.0 also enables intelligent flow and sharing of services among different devices.

The Huawei Hongmeng system, known by the public, has a similar experience. However, Zhao Ming said that MagicOS 7.0’s MagicRing trust ring is not based on the same principles as its predecessor. Based on distributed soft bus technology, Harmony can only interconnect between its own products, while MagicRing Trust Ring creates an identity authentication system that allows devices with the same identity authentication system to be automatically networked in a trusted state, making the ability to connect with each other more powerful. As a result, MagicOS 7.0 continues to evolve forward and will be compatible with

existing ecological and operating system solutions, adapting to a wider range. Theoretically speaking, Harmony can join the MagicRing trust ring and access MagicOS as well.

In terms of specific experience, the connection between Harmony devices and the flow of services is point-to-point and still “device-centric”. The underlying technology of MagicOS 7.0 is precisely for these all-around upgrades and transformations, can do the corresponding services of multiple devices at the same time, let the service flow with the heart, is “user-centered”.

This time, the glory Magic Vs and glory 80 series two new products are equipped with MagicOS 7.0, with a more complete all-scene, cross-device collaborative experience and richer active intelligent service features. It is reported that the first tablet equipped with MagicOS 7.0 system, Honor V8 Pro, will be launched in December, which will bring a more complete cross-device experience.

From people looking for services to services looking for people

In the traditional intelligent terminal ecology, users need to be “people looking for services”. For example, if you take the subway, you have to find the App related to the code on your phone before entering the station, and if you are in a hurry to commute or have something in your hands, you will be in a hurry to find the App. Zhao Ming has said, “We want to create an experience that MagicOS gets better and better, and the more you use it, the more you understand it. Such an experience relies on AI technology.

MagicOS 7.0 is equipped with Magic Live, a platform AI solution that breaks the boundary between people, environment and services based on the three core capabilities of scene perception, user understanding and intent decision, enabling timely and accurate active service recommendation, or “service to people”. The same subway ride, with the MagicOS 7.0-enabled folding screen phone, the origin of the interaction experience evolved from “human command” to “AI active push”, based on Gloria’s AI algorithm, at the most appropriate time and place, the initiative to initiate smart services in line with consumer behavior habits, so that picking up Express, check flights and other common cell phone operation steps reduced by more than 50%, to improve the efficiency of folding interaction.

Although Harmony is also creating a scene-aware experience, MagicOS 7.0 has three major advantages. The first is more advanced high-precision geo-fencing capability, so MagicOS 7.0 can identify scenes more accurately; the second is better AI learning capability, MagicOS 7.0 shortens the learning cycle and realizes “the more you use, the more you understand” faster; the third is that MagicOS 7.0 has the ability to determine the precise intent of multi-intent association compared to Harmony’s single-intent perception. At present, MagicOS 7.0 can make multi-intent association understanding for 3 types of scenarios: work, commuting and travel, and provide 25 kinds of combined service recommendations, such as flight check-in reminders and destination weather reminders before travel.

Create an open ecology

Cross-end collaboration and information integration require not only the mature application of intelligent technology and continuous innovation but also the support of software and hardware partners and developers. Glory and Huawei are building their own open ecology.

At the press conference, glory announced the results of its ecological cooperation in the field of sports health and intelligent travel. Glory to create a sports health platform, through self-research equipment and ecological sports health equipment for sports monitoring and data recording, joint medical institutions and research institutions to achieve platform sharing and mutual assistance in capacity. In the field of intelligent travel, Glory announced cooperation with BYD and Baidu Apollo to provide consumers with a better experience.

On MagicOS 7.0, Gloria fully opens 22 Kits to partners in 5 major scenarios: mobile office, sports and health, smart home, smart travel, and audio and video entertainment, and releases 32 capability open sub-solutions. As of the release, Honor has built joint labs with partners such as Nail, Antennas and Ants based on MagicOS 7.0, and achieved joint co-creation with more than 100 partners.

Huawei has been working in the smart terminal industry for many years and has the first-mover advantage in ecological expansion. According to the data announced at the 2022 Huawei Developer Conference, there are more than 2200 partners and more than 2 million Harmony ecological developers.

And glory is accelerating to catch up. magic 7.0 has low code, fast access, ecological openness and other characteristics, can be quickly scaled up to apply to ecological partners. Glory also created a service platform for developers as a unified ecological entrance, one-stop docking full process services. At the same time, glory also released the “glory voyage plan”, which will provide developers with 1 billion yuan worth of resources to support.

In addition, Zhao Ming believes that Glory’s solution has the first-mover advantage in ecology, because Glory’s cell phone is based on Android’s ecology, and is standing on the shoulders of the giant Android to develop forward, and already has a strong ecosystem innately. In PC, and IoT as well, MagicOS is compatible with Matter and OLA.

“What MagicOS presents is what the operating system should look like in the future, in the era of the smart connection of everything, and it will continue to grow and improve and become better and better in the future,” said Zhao Ming. Zhao Ming said.

Honor officials previously revealed that MagicOS 7.0 will create a cross-application, cross-device, cross-system intelligent experience of everything connected, which can provide a seamless user experience for different platforms and devices, using different operating systems devices can be connected with MagicOS devices to achieve system-level.

In addition to the user interface changes, MagicOS 7.0 also enables control of three platforms – laptops, smartphones, and tablets – using a single set of keyboards and mouse. With this new feature, users can seamlessly transfer files between devices, for example, using a laptop keyboard to enter text on a smartphone or tablet.

Honor CEO Zhao Ming also said that with the release of MagicOS 7.0, Honor will also simultaneously release a new generation of folding screen devices. According to previous revelations, the device is the Honor Magic Vs, equipped with a stylus.

The time of the new Honor launch coincides with the Qualcomm Snapdragon Summit, we can look forward to seeing if it can be equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.

In addition, Honor models FRI-AN00, FRI-AN10 two new 5G machine 3C certifications, support 66W fast charging, news that this is the Honor 80 series of new machines. According to the previous news, Honor 80 series will have three versions, respectively Honor 80 SE, Honor 80 and Honor 80 Pro, these three models will be equipped with MediaTek Dimensity 1080 processor, Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G + mobile platform and the flagship Snapdragon 8 + mobile platform. The news also said that the Honor 80 series will not use Sony’s IMX800 sensor, but will choose 200 million pixels, the specific sensor may be Samsung’s HP1.

According to blogger @digitalchat, the 200 megapixels should be exclusive to the Honor 80 Pro, while the remaining two models should use a 64-megapixel or 100-megapixel sensor, with 66W and 100W versions of fast charging power.

In response to the positioning of the Honor X series, Zhao Ming said: “The Honor X series has always been the standard for others, when have we ever been the standard for others? We have always been cool and cool, and when we did the Internet phone, we came out as the best in the field in this class, generation. Any product that comes across our X series in this slot can only be the second, so it’s not like Honor’s X series is benchmarking anyone.”

Zhao Ming said the X series had the best sales in this slot or in the first half of the year for the entire Android phone, and the new X40 will definitely continue to improve. “The product managers and the corresponding teams of each generation of the X series, are used to being ahead and outperforming all their rivals, and I hope they continue to maintain this kingly spirit.”

Talking about MagicOS 7.0, which will be officially launched in the fourth quarter of this year, Zhao Ming revealed that when Honor Magic I was released in December 2016, the Honor team was thinking about creating a system that could grow with consumers, understand them better the more they used it, and be more fluid and consumer-centric. “After Honor’s independence, we gradually put this idea into perfection. Frankly speaking, the general architecture was completed at the beginning of this year, and the architecture system of MagicUI 6.0 was released at the beginning of January this year, which actually laid the groundwork and foundation for MagicOS 7.0 today.”

Zhao Ming pointed out that Honor also integrated the software team for this purpose, and there are probably several thousand people involved in the creation of the entire MagicOS system. So this year officially released to the world, Honor will be launched in Q4 MagicOS 7.0. “In addition to the artificial intelligence support can accompany the growth of consumers, the more you use the more understand you, the more smooth, we also want to break the screen boundary, system boundary, ecological boundary.” “In this year’s Q4 when Honor released MagicOS 7.0, it must have both the advantages of an open operating system and the excellent experience of closed services flowing between different devices created by iOS.”

Zhao Ming also talked about the Honor executives before “someone to poke the sky up, Honor to down roots” remarks, said Honor has still adhered to the underlying technology breakthroughs and innovation, to create the core technical control point and competitiveness. To this end, Honor has done several levels of innovation, one is industrial partners, such as SoC partners. In the future, Gloria will be deeply involved in the planning of SoC, share the product requirements with partners, and reflect many of Gloria’s requirements in future development. Second, in the industry through partners to solve the low efficiency, Honor will also develop Honor’s own chip, operating system and many patents and innovative technology, to create their own core root technology, and on this basis long-term development. Third, in addition to building the underlying hardware core capabilities and technology, to be able to experience the security of consumers, to be able to truly experience the security, based on the location of the core capabilities, AI machine learning capabilities to build a leading edge.

In addition, Zhao Ming said in this European release of Honor European strategy and global strategy, the company is a highly unified idea, in Europe to play the main Magic series and Honor digital series. Honor to use innovation and experience, to win the market competition in Europe, in the construction of global high-end brand Honor to be unwavering, even though in this process may be aspects, but in the breakthrough of high-end products and use innovation to lead the competition with friendly business, Honor is unwavering. “This road, we choose will go on, but also in line with our company values, of course, we will also balance the speed of growth overseas, as well as the quality of growth issues.”

In addition to software, Honor has invested a lot in developing its own software and apps, especially the updated Honor Health App.

Honor also said it is expanding its partnership with Microsoft to make the Windows “Your Phone” Phone Link available for international versions of Honor devices as well.

The feature allows users to connect some Honor smartphones to a Windows PC without installing additional apps to take better advantage of cross-device features, including viewing phone notifications, making and receiving calls on the PC, and opening phone apps on Windows.

The Honor Magic 4 Pro phone is reportedly one of the first smartphones to support Phone Link, and the new Honor 70 will also support Phone Link with the update.

Also at IFA, Honor talked about its new “Honor Spatial Audio Surround Sound” solution, which enables headphones to produce cinema-quality 3D surround effects.

Pride’s surround sound solution is said to be designed to provide surround sound and 3D sound effects through the headset, using the headset’s accelerometer and gyroscope to track the user’s head movement and remap the sound field accordingly in movies, music and games. The algorithm can be used to simulate changes in sound as it travels from the source to the listener’s ear. These effects include sound source localization above, below, behind and in front of the listener.

According to Pride, its surround sound solution is the first to support sound distance adjustment. This offers the possibility to dynamically adjust the distance of the virtual sound source to 10-15 cm for a more personalized listening experience.

As part of its IFA keynote, Honor also announced that it has joined several IoT alliances, including Matter and Ola, and is bringing a new developer services platform that provides direct support and services for developers, offering software developers the opportunity to submit apps through the platform, app marketplace and game center.

As a final note, during its IFA keynote, Honor announced a program called “Gateway to the Future,” a new HONOR Talents program that aims to enrich cultural heritage through technology.

In collaboration with ARLOOPA, Honor will reportedly challenge artists Yunuene and Timo Helgert to redesign the iconic Wasserschloss building in Hamburg’s Warehouse City and UNESCO World Heritage Site.
