Huawei users welcome series of software updates
There’s a lot of good news for Huawei lately and now existing users of their phones going to get a major update to EMUI 9.1, Huawei’s latest custom operating system based on Android Pie.
The roll out to devices will begin mid-July; enabling a faster, easier and more secure user experience for thousands of Huawei smartphone customers. Huawei will also continue to provide ongoing Android services and security updates to ensure that all Huawei customers enjoy the best possible experience on their Huawei smartphone.
“We have long been committed to continuously innovating the user experience by consistently contributing to open Android innovation. In line with this we set out to develop EMUI 9.1 providing consumers with an even more enjoyable, uncomplicated and secure user experience,” said Walter Ji, President of Huawei Western Europe, Consumer Business Group.
The update will bring fundamental optimisations that will elevate the overall user experience, including the latest Android security patches and a new and improved gaming experience, courtesy of GPU Turbo 3.0.
Ji continues:
We initially launched EMUI 9.1 on our latest smartphone device - the P30 series, to great customer feedback. Recognising the benefit that all our customers could gain from this more responsive and faster system, we are committed to ensuring that EMUI 9.1 will now roll out on other devices in our portfolio.
The latest EMUI 9.1 interface design consolidates the settings menu, removing multiple steps and hiding complexities for effortless user experience. It also features new wallpapers and themes reflecting scenes of nature, and the app icons have been redesigned to be more realistic.
GPU Turbo 3.0 improves the mobile gaming experience by supporting more games than ever before, whilst also reducing the screen touch response delay by 36% and optimising the system performance for uninterrupted play.
EMUI 9.1 includes features that promote a healthy digital lifestyle for users and their family members, including screen time statistics, sleep time management, parental control for supervising children’s smartphone use, and more. Plus, the improved digital wellbeing features can be used to manage usage time, apps, downloads, share location and trace devices.
The EMUI 9.1 software update will roll out to 24 Huawei devices beginning mid-July 2019, starting with the HUAWEI Mate 20 X and the Porsche Design HUAWEI Mate 20 RS.
