MagicOS 7/Android 13 beta rolling out for Honor phones

The post Honor Magic 4 Pro is getting Magic UI 6.0.0.177 with new features and optimizations appeared first on Huawei Central.

A week ago, our fellow reader Adrian shared a screenshot of the Magic UI 5.2 rollout for the Honor 20 smartphone. The shared screenshot reveals more information about the software, which shows EMUI 12 in the base.

Earlier this year, we reported that Honor will release EMUI 12 for Honor smartphones. However, the company showed no sign of this since then.

Meanwhile, Honor smartphones users gave us questions one after another related to this upgrade. But it’s finally here and it’s happening. Don’t worry, we got some proof to cement this claim.

What did we find?

While researching further, we found that the Honor 20 is not the only smartphone to get Magic UI 5.2. Because EMUI 12 is also upgrading other Honor smartphones such as the top-tier Honor 30 and V30 series.

That’s not it, Honor is randomly sending EMUI 12 build for old budget devices such as Honor 10 Lite, and Honor V20 as well. However, some other users of the same models are still waiting for the OTA update.

Availability?

For your information, the Magic UI 5.2/EMUI 12 is spotted in Russia and we’ve not found this occurring in another market.

May take some time to expand:

We’re certain this rollout is in the initial stage and may take some to reach every eligible Honor model. Also, we’re not expecting a fast rollout.

Instructions:

If you want to check for the latest software update, visit Settings > System & updates, tap on Software updates and then CHECK FOR UPDATES. Alternatively, we suggest you to also check for new firmware via the My Huawei app.

Before you proceed, make sure you get a backup of important data and maintain internal storage to download Magic UI 5.2/EMUI 12 on your Honor smartphone.

On the sidelines of the Honor Magic V launch, George answered some of the media’s questions. One of which especially spotlight this question, of which, George answered that Honor Magic UI 6.0 is an operating system and software system of Honor.

The Honor chief said Magic UI 6.0 has a different philosophy compared to Huawei HarmonyOS and has its own direction to go, differently.

What to know:

Although, the core of Magic UI 6.0 is based on Android 12 but its user interface including widgets, snippets, and most of the user interface is identical to HarmonyOS operating system. It’s simple to judge the similarities among both of these software systems.

Huawei and Honor:

Following the mega partition between the two firms in 2020, Huawei and Honor went separate ways. Post-separation, Honor established its supply chain and got access to prohibited components that were banned with Huawei.

The company has retained most of its employees and Geroge is promoted from head to CEO. Therefore, it works independently and launches a high-end smartphone similar to Honor Magic V.

High-end is not a slogan, and it’s not just something that can be solved by determination. Similarly, it is not that Honor comes out of Huawei’s system, so it should take Huawei’s high-end share as a matter of course. Honor still has to build its own core capabilities.” He said that to Apple It is not unexpected to win more high-end shares.
