The HONOR brand has launched the latest version of its operating system with integrated AI, the MagicOS 8.0, based on Android 14
This is great news because it is the first intent-based user interface (IUI), i.e. based on user intentions. In other words, MagicOS 8.0 uses artificial intelligence to figure out what you want to do before you even give input. Thanks to this revolutionary system, the user experience becomes easier and more intuitive. But how does the IUI operating system work and which technologies is it supported by? Let’s see it together!
MagicLM: a real revolution
MagicOS 8.0 uses a language model, MagicLM, developed by HONOR in collaboration with Qualcomm. The MagicLM model can interpret the speech, images, gestures and even eye movements of smartphone users. Based on these movements, it offers functions and services proactively. All this makes interaction with the device more intuitive and faster. The MagicLM language model runs on the new Snapdragon 8 Gen3 processor, integrated by all new smartphones from HONOR, including the brand new Magic 6 Pro.
More privacy and security with MagicOS 8.0
User privacy has always been one of the priorities of the HONOR brand. The brand had already demonstrated this by introducing, for example, a special chip (Dual TEE) used for storing sensitive data. To guarantee even more security than in the past, MagicOS 8.0 has introduced protected and private spaces for storing data, images and personal files. Additionally, a feature to block intrusive ads and pop-ups has been added. All this further improves the overall user experience.
MagicPortal simplifies access to services
With the launch of MagicOS 8.0, HONOR introduced MagicPortal, an innovative function also based on the IUI, which suggests the user shortcuts in line with his intentions. This technology allows you to quickly access services and switch from one app to another or from one device to another with a simple touch. This is undoubtedly a further step forward regarding the interaction between user and device.
Personalized user experience with the LLM ecosystem
AI models built into the operating system act as a bridge between the user and cloud-based AIs. These help users search for information online or access various services. To make this even more user-friendly, HONOR, in collaboration with several partners, has launched the LLM Ecosystem program. Through the LLM ecosystem, the MagicOS operating system can access partners’ vertical cloud AI models. The interconnection between AI allows users to enjoy a personalized, simple and safer user experience.
Even more efficient MagicRing technology
MagicRing is one of the core technologies of the MagicOS operating system. Simply put, MagicRing is that system that interconnects the various devices owned by a single user, creating a digital ecosystem. With the new MagicOS 8.0 this technology has been enhanced compared to the past. MagicRing is 25% more energy efficient than before. Speed has also been improved by 500%. The connection between smartphones, tablets, smartwatches and other devices is therefore faster and smoother, but not only that. Via MagicRing it is also possible to connect devices such as printers, smartwatches and even cars.
Conclusions
HONOR quickly gained a reputation as a revolutionary brand that is in step with the future and proves it every time. Its human-centered technologies have become increasingly intelligent, personalized and intuitive over the years. But this is not the only news from the brand. HONOR’s brand new top of the range, the Magic 6 Pro, will soon arrive in Europe. It is a powerful and cutting-edge device, which integrates both the MagicOS 8.0 operating system and the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen3 processor.
