MagicOS 7.0 Experience： A Sci-Fi All-Scene Smart Operating System

The new systems launched by major smartphone manufacturers in the past two years all have a common evolutionary direction, that is, to move towards the direction of end point interconnection. Whether it is Hongmeng OS or Apple’s ecosystem is no exception. However, due to cultural nuances, Apple’s ecosystem is not satisfactory in some places, and Hongmeng OS, due to some objective reasons, at the end point level, whether it is scale or function, some hands and feet cannot be let go. The glory of independence from Huawei has been committed to exploring a more user-friendly and convenient end point interconnection experience. The previous Magic system is still exploring more, and the latest MagicOS 7.0 has achieved good results in ecological integration.

So what are the surprises of MagicOS 7.0’s ecological integration? Here, let’s give you a detailed explanation through the two highlights of smart interconnection and smart services.

MagicRing Trust Ring brings multiple devices together

First of all, it needs to be noted that the intelligent interconnection power of MagicOS 7.0 is all based on a technology called Honor MagicRing Trust Ring. Based on this technology, different Honor devices can automatically discover and connect after turning on WIFI and Bluetooth. There is no need to "scan", "touch", "connect" and other actions. And the connected devices can realize the mutual call of software and hardware, making different devices like one.

As the name implies, the smart interconnection of MagicOS 7.0 is to realize the interconnection of mobile phones, PCs, tablets and other end points under the glory ecosystem. The external manifestation of this interconnection is that calls and notifications of Honor mobile phones, PCs and tablets can be shared.

This function requires entering Settings – Smart Internet Notification Sharing, making sure that the notification sharing switch is turned on, and turning on the application switch that needs to share notifications.

After turning on the sharing switch, when the Honor mobile phone receives a notification message, it can directly view and reply on the tablet and PC device currently in use. For example, we are using the PC for work, and the Honor mobile phone is put aside. When the mobile phone receives the message, the PC will also push the notification in real time. Click on the message, the PC will prompt us to enter the mobile phone password, and we can reply directly on the computer.

It is worth noting that the notification sharing of MagicOS 7.0 does not simply push notifications to all devices, but will be based on a cross-device AI decision engine that only alerts notification messages on the devices we use.

Similar to the notification message, when the Honor mobile phone calls, the Honor tablet and PC can also answer, and during the call, it can also be transferred to other connected devices to continue the call. For example, if we make a call on the way home, when we get home, just open the Honor smart screen and click the "Speaker" button on the phone’s call interface to select the connected device to continue the call.

In order to avoid user privacy leakage, MagicOS 7.0’s call sharing also supports a cross-device AI decision engine. Only incoming calls are displayed on the device the user is using, and all supported devices will not ring when an incoming call is made. For example, if you are using a computer when the call comes, the tablet will not vibrate together; if you use a tablet, the computer will not vibrate together. It can not only avoid user confusion, but also take into account information security.

Although Hongmeng and iOS ecology also support notification sharing, according to our tests, Hongmeng and iOS notification sharing cannot achieve refined strategies such as owner identification and device status recognition similar to MagicOS 7.0. For example, iOS ecology, smart phones make calls, then PCs, tablets, and watches will play ringtones immediately.

Earlier this year, Honor released the HONOR Connect full-scene connection protocol, which can use the tablet as an extended screen of the computer and share the keyboard and mouse across screens. MagicOS 7.0 takes it a step further, with another revolutionary "sharing" feature – keyboard and mouse sharing.

To enter the settings – smart interconnection – keyboard and mouse sharing for this function, turn on the keyboard and mouse sharing switch. And place the mobile phone and tablet on both sides of the computer to ensure that all devices are unlocked and on the screen.

After that, move the computer mouse to the edge of the PC screen and touch it twice. After the connection is successful, we can use the PC keyboard and mouse to control the PC, tablet and mobile phone at the same time. For example, if we want to look at the mobile phone when we are working, we need to put down the computer, pick up the mobile phone, and unlock it to see the relevant information.

On MagicOS 7.0, we can simply swipe the PC’s mouse across the edge of the screen to switch to the mobile phone with one click. On the mobile phone, we can directly click the button through the PC’s mouse and enter text through the PC’s keyboard, which is convenient and fast.

It is worth noting that MagicOS 7.0 also supports device orientation recognition, which can automatically determine the direction of mouse penetration. For example, if we place a mobile phone on the right side of the PC and a tablet on the left, and then we switch the two devices, MagicOS 7.0 will also automatically match the direction of the screen.

Interestingly, we also connected the keyboard and mouse to the smartphone first, and then tried to share the keyboard and mouse on the mobile phone with the PC and tablet, but the result was not possible. The keyboard and mouse can only be used on the mobile phone. From this point of view, the keyboard and mouse sharing of MagicOS 7.0 can only be done on the PC center, not in reverse.

In comparison, although there are also systems that support keyboard and mouse sharing on the market, these platforms, keys and mice that share PCs, need to manually click the switch settings before each use. In comparison, MagicOS 7.0 is undoubtedly more user-friendly. Because MagicOS 7.0 not only supports mobile phone, tablet, and PC multi-terminal sharing, but also supports self-discovery ad hoc network, device orientation recognition and other functions, it is more user-friendly.

In addition to controlling all end points in the ecosystem through a set of keys and mice, MagicOS 7.0’s end points also support application connection.

The specific operation is to enter Settings – Smart Internet – Application Connection and turn on the application connection switch. Then under My Devices, click the device connected to the machine to ensure that its application connection switch is turned on.

Take the continuous video clip as an example, edit the video in the OviC of the mobile phone, close to the tablet. The tablet will display the connection prompt on the multitasking interface or the Dock bar. Click the prompt, and the application will seamlessly flow to the tablet to continue editing.

This feature must have hit a lot of video blogger’s pain points. During a business trip, we may use our mobile phone to edit videos. After arriving at the hotel, we can directly transfer the edited videos to the tablet device through the MagicOS 7.0 application connection function.

In addition, the application connection function of MagicOS 7.0 does not support mobile end point and PC connection, only supports mobile phones and tablets to connect to each other. It is speculated that this is because Android and Windows have different ecosystems, so it is difficult to synchronize the application state.

It is understood that MagicOS 7.0 applications continue to support office notes, emails, WPS, as well as entertainment applications such as Youku, Douyu, Kugou, Ovicut, etc. Honor said that it will continue to expand in the future to adapt to more applications.

Magic Live makes services actively integrated

In the previous upgrades, smart services have been the focus of MagicOS ‘evolution. In addition to the self-organizing and self-connecting experience mentioned above, the Magic Live smart engine platform-level AI capability built into MagicOS 7.0 has also been upgraded, and YOYO recommends and MagicLive will continue to work in the disconnected state. Recommended services.

After actual experience, MagicOS 7.0 covers a wider area with more accurate accuracy. For users with relatively regular daily behavior habits, it can understand user needs in as little as three days, and recommend scenarios to support combinations.

For example, if we want to take the subway, the original single scene recognition will only push us a subway ride code. Now MagicOS 7.0 will give us a combined ride code + health treasure. In short, MagicOS 7.0 can automatically determine the scene we are in, determine which services we need, and then push the advance.

In addition to the smart scenes actively pushed by the system, the text smart recognition function of MagicOS 7.0 also supports just a click away of the scene. For example, if a friend sends us a screenshot of a scenic spot, then we just need to click the recognition button in the lower right corner of the album, and then click the recognized address to one-click jumping to the navigation app.

Although the current iOS and Hongmeng systems also support text recognition, these two systems can only recognize text and cannot be linked with other apps, which is not as practical as MagicOS 7.0.

30 apps, only kill two backstage

Since it is a new system, the basic fluency experience cannot be ignored. It is worth noting that this has always been the strength of MagicOS.

According to official data, Magic OS 7.0 has three Turbo X technologies: OS Turbo X, GPU Turbo X, and Link Turbo X. With the support of Turbo X and Magic live’s intelligent capabilities, Magic OS 7.0 can provide the most suitable smooth experience according to user habits, surrounding environment perception, and device status.

Magic OS 7.0 system virtual memory has been greatly increased to 7GB, plus 12GB of physical memory, the total number reaches 19GB. In this regard, we chose to find a 6.0 system glory phone with the same physical memory to test the background survival of Magic OS 7.0 system and 6.0 system.

The specific test steps are to use the Magic OS 7.0 system and the 6.0 system to download 30 Top applications in the built-in app store, open them all, wait for 5 minutes, and then check the background situation.

As a result, only two apps, Meituan and Autonavi, were reloaded in the Magic OS 7.0 system, and six apps were killed in the background in the 6.0 system. From this point of view, the virtual memory function of the Magic OS 7.0 system does perform well.

In addition, the scanning speed of the Magic OS 7.0 system has also been upgraded. The actual measurement is not only faster than 6.0, but also has a certain speed advantage compared to the Hongmeng flagship.

Summary: Magic OS 7.0 surprises

Overall, Magic OS 7.0 system has brought us a lot of surprises. Because it not only brings new changes in appearance, but also brings many new experiences in functionality.

For example, in response to users’ needs for multi-end point interconnection, Magic OS 7.0 system has added mouse sharing, notification sharing, application continuation and other functions. This fully shows that Honor has always built products from the perspective of consumers.

Therefore, if you want to have a mobile phone with high security, smooth and convenient operation, simple and creative page design, and smart functions, then you can focus on the Magic OS 7.0 system products launched by Honor.
