Huawei’s latest software, HarmonyOS 6, is officially launching its public beta. Back in June, there were reports about this update. Now, users can finally start testing it. This big software update is a major step for Huawei’s own operating system.
It’s important to know that this first list of devices is only for China. If you want to try the beta, you’ll need to sign up through the My Huawei app.
What’s New: Look and Feel
The biggest changes in HarmonyOS 6 are in how it looks and feels. Huawei completely revamped the design with new, smooth animations that make everything feel faster. You can now deeply personalize your phone with new lockscreen customization options. They’ve also worked hard to make the basic user interface (UI) snappier and better performing, so your phone should fly through tasks.
Smarter Than Ever with AI
A huge part of this update focuses on Artificial Intelligence (AI). HarmonyOS 6 is packed with smart features designed to make life easier. Meet XiaoYi, the new personal assistant. This assistant is super smart, knowing what you’re doing, and gives you helpful info based on the situation. XiaoYi can even do things for you on its own, like finishing tasks without you having to press a button.
