Recently, a number of digital bloggers mentioned that Huawei’s new folding screen flagship Mate X3 is expected to be released at the end of April. This new phone will be equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 4G chip and Kirin 9000 4G chip.
After that, it is expected that around July, the Huawei Mate 50 series is expected to launch together with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen1 4G processor and the heavyweight Hongmeng 3.0 system.
In fact, Hongmeng 3.0 appeared on the CCTV Finance Channel in March this year, and it was said at the time that it would be launched within the year. But if the above news about the Mate 50 series is accurate, it means that the overall progress of Hongmeng will be advanced.
It is understood that by the end of 2021, more than 220 million devices have been equipped with or upgraded to Huawei’s HarmonyOS operating system, and more than 100 Huawei mobile phones support the update of HarmonyOS.
At present, Huawei has launched the developer preview version of HarmonyOS 3.0. It has continued to innovate around the three core values of system architecture, hyperterminal, and one-time development and multi-terminal deployment, bringing system capabilities and development tools to a comprehensive upgrade.
In addition, the developer preview version of HarmonyOS 3.0 brings heterogeneous networking technology, allowing distributed capabilities to support more devices.
For example, mobile phones, smart screens, and 4 speakers can be combined into a super terminal of 6 devices, so that mobile phone videos can also enjoy a large-screen and 5.1-channel cinematic experience; the combination of mobile phones, tablets, and PCs brings an upgraded version of multi-screen collaboration. Three-screen collaboration improves office efficiency.
The current news is that HarmonyOS 3.0 has not changed much in terms of UI, but has improved in terms of interaction logic and experience. In terms of distributed interaction, the connection is faster, and the performance sharing of multiple devices is also more stable.
According to the process of the official release earlier, May should be the internal testing stage of HarmonyOS 3.0 Beta version, and the official version will be launched in July.
According to estimates, the Huawei Mate 50 series will launch the 4G version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen1, which will be improved compared to the P50 series in terms of camera, and will be officially released in July.
