In the second half of this year, Huawei will have a lot of "big moves"!
Huawei Nova10 series will be released in early July, and Huawei Mate50 series will be released in September. There is also news in the market that Hongmeng version 3.0 is coming soon!
According to digital blogger @ Factory Director Shiguan, the official version of Hongmeng OS 3.0 will be released in late July. The blogger previously revealed that the Hongmeng OS 3.0 system will be more streamlined. With the support of new algorithms, Hongmeng OS 3.0 will be smoother than 2.0 in daily use.
Currently, the number of Huawei devices equipped with Hongmeng OS exceeds 240 million units, and the shipment volume of ecological equipment exceeds 150 million units. This data is definitely the fastest growing leader in today's market. It can be said that Huawei Hongmeng has given The results are quite impressive.
Judging from the reactions of users, after the news broke, many "pollen" people began to rub their hands in anticipation.
As early as the Huawei Developer Conference on October 22 last year, Huawei launched the developer preview version of Hongmeng OS 3.0, innovating and upgrading the system around the three core values of flexible deployment, super terminal, and once-developed multi-terminal deployment. Performance and development tools whetted everyone's appetite at the time.
Until June 15 this year, one year after the release of Hongmeng 2.0, Hongmeng 3.0 finally ushered in public beta! On the same day, Huawei officially launched the developer public beta registration for the Hongmeng OS 3.0 system. The registration deadline is July 15, and the review deadline is July 25.
It is understood that the devices supporting public testing this time include: Huawei P50, P50 Pro, P50 Pocket, Mate 40, Mate 40 Pro, Mate 40 Pro 4G, Mate 40 Pro+, Mate 40 RS Porsche Design, Huawei MatePad Pro 12.6 inches 2021 model.
Since the public beta supports direct upgrade from Hongmeng OS 2.0, it is speculated that most or even all current Hongmeng OS 2.0 devices will iterate to version 3.0.
Without further ado, let’s take a look.
Unfortunately, due to the confidentiality agreement, the friends who received the push cannot directly share the characteristics of the new function with everyone, but some breaking information has been released one after another.
It is understood that Hongmeng OS 3.0 will not have much change in the UI interface, but the position of the system status bar icon display has been adjusted, the previous HD icon has been removed, and WiFi and other icons have also been moved to the right. At the same time, the new 3.0 version The side notification bar has also been adjusted. As for the changes in other parts, not much has been revealed yet.
Not only that, due to the addition of the new algorithm, Huawei Hongmeng OS 3.0 will become smoother in daily operation, application startup will be faster, and multi-device transfer is likely to be decentralized to more models, which also means that the user experience will be smoother. Well, the Internet aspect is more widely used.
Judging from the news exposed so far, the overall improvement is still relatively large. It depends on whether there will be other surprises when it is officially released.
More importantly, this Hongmeng OS version 3.0 can be called a "reborn" upgrade iteration. It is reported that after the third phase of the open source code of Hongmeng is launched, the code contributed by Google will be deleted.
In fact, many people will have such a feeling after using Hongmeng system. They feel that Hongmeng system is the Android system, but it has been reskinned.
But seriously, the underlying development of the two systems is different. The "similarity" is mainly because the Hongmeng system uses some open source code of the Android system. The so-called open source code means that anyone can use it. This also improves the compatibility of Hongmeng system.
And Google itself cannot do without the technology that Huawei has contributed. For example, the Huawei EROFS super file system is used in Google Android 13 system, so it is understandable that everyone feels that it is very similar.
If Huawei’s Hongmeng 3.0 system deletes all the only Android open source code this time, then it really has nothing to do with the Android system, and the Hongmeng system will no longer be restricted.
With the official arrival of Hongmeng OS 3.0, the next Huawei flagship phone is also obvious. It is likely to be the long-awaited Huawei Mate 50 series. As usual, the Huawei Mate 50 series is likely to be the first model to ship with the official version of Hongmeng OS 3.0.
Recent revelations about the Huawei Mate 50 series have gradually increased recently. It is rumored that this phone may have three versions: Huawei Mate 50, Mate 50 Pro, and Mate 50 RS. Each version has different appearance and configuration.

Unfortunately, Huawei Mate 50 series is likely to be unable to use the self-developed Kirin chip . Instead, it will use the 4G version of Qualcomm Snapdragon chip, but it will be equipped with a 5G communication shell. This enables the use of 5G networks.
And this series is still expected to have built-in Huawei's self-developed NPU chip to further improve the processor's computing power.
In addition, the imaging function of the Huawei Mate 50 series is still the main selling point. Although it no longer cooperates with Leica , the camera components used in the machine will still be top-notch, and the NPU chip will be used to enhance image processing, thus bringing Better photo and video recording experience.
In fact, judging from this public beta, the adaptation of Huawei’s own models is quite extensive, and it will also be included in some Honor mobile phones.
But having said that, it is expected that the models of Honor mobile phones that support Hongmeng system should be the same as the Hongmeng OS version 2.0, that is, models before Honor X10 can support it, but subsequent models are unlikely to adopt it.
After all, these models are pre-independence versions, not to mention that the Magic UI 6.1 now equipped on Honor phones is already very good, and it will not take long to restore the supply chain, so new Honor phone users should not be able to use it.
What’s more important is that some tipsters revealed earlier that non-Huawei mobile phone manufacturers are also planning to use Hongmeng OS. “Well-known former major manufacturers” and “Zhuhai Little Samsung” and “Zhuhai Little Samsung” mentioned by netizens in the comment area are also planning to use Hongmeng OS. "The company has a new owner" and so on. Judging from the comprehensive clues, it seems to be Meizu Technology.
In fact, Meizu has already had a precedent of cooperation with Huawei's Hongmeng OS. Its smart home brand Lipro announced that it has access to Hongmeng OS. Earlier, its mobile phones had been using its own Flyme system.
Previously, Geely acquired a majority stake in Meizu. Perhaps it wanted to further connect Meizu with Huawei's Hongmeng OS and connect it to Huawei's Hi Car ecosystem. After all, Geely's car system has been criticized by users. Using Hongmeng OS seems to be a good choice to make up for its shortcomings.
Although it has not yet been determined whether Meizu will enter the game, it can be confirmed that many domestic manufacturers have already developed equipment for the Hongmeng system, so that smart terminal products under major brands have successively supported the Hongmeng system. In the future, the ecological environment of the Hongmeng system will also change. will grow further.
Finally, after entering the official version, Hongmeng OS 3.0 will soon be further adapted to more Huawei mobile phones . The streamlined system architecture is also conducive to giving older models a smoother operating experience. Let us wait and see!
