Honor MagicOS 8.0 Introduction
In a groundbreaking move, Honor has officially launched MagicOS 8.0, a mobile system that pioneers AI-driven intent recognition for human-computer interaction. This cutting-edge technology, which will be available on the Honor 50 to 100 series and Magic3, 4, and 5 series, promises a seamless experience through its innovative “Any Door” function.
MagicOS 8.0 introduces platform-level AI-enhanced arbitrary door functionality, allowing users to effortlessly navigate between applications with a simple long press and drag. This feature streamlines multitasking, significantly reducing operational steps and time.
The “Any Door” feature supports a diverse range of services, including taxi booking, navigation, search, shopping, decryption, printing, sharing, and global collection. This versatility caters to various user needs, enhancing the overall user experience.
A highlight of the release is the Honor Magic Model, a self-researched on-device AI big model boasting an impressive 7 billion parameters. This model, debuting on the Honor Magic6 series, is exclusive to devices equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen3.
The Magic Model facilitates local operations, enabling intelligent functions such as image recognition, map searches, schedule management, and many more. Additionally, Honor has established a large model service ecosystem, fostering secure collaboration between multiple models. Strategic partnerships, such as with Baidu Intelligent Cloud, contribute to the growth of this ecosystem.
MagicOS 8.0 introduces the Spirit Capsule feature, akin to Apple’s Dynamic Island, providing a concise display of important information in eight categories. The “three-finger slide, everything can be collected” function allows users to effortlessly capture web pages, videos, documents, pictures, and text for multi-device access.
Other notable features include “My Day” for intelligent schedule arrangement, full-stack device interconnection with MagicRing trust ring supporting up to 8-way service concurrency, and a new spatial touch effect for a natural and elegant user interface.
Security enhancements include an upgraded Parallel Space function and features like permission minimization recommendations, monthly privacy reports, anti-scam and anti-hooligan software, and anti-“Shake” ads. The UI improvements in MagicOS 8.0 encompass three new features: magic lock screen, variable desktop, and smart table.
