Huawei has announced the global schedule for Huawei devices
receiving the free EMUI10 update. The latest version of EMUI10
introduces a new interface, Dark Mode, improved performance and security
and support for Multi-screen Collaboration, a new feature that enables
seamless connectivity between Huawei PCs and Android devices.
Beginning this month, the HUAWEI P30 Pro, HUAWEI P30, HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro, HUAWEI Mate 20, HUAWEI Mate 20 X (4G) and HUAWEI nova 5T users will start receiving push notifications prompting them to install the EMUI10 update. Users may also check for eligibility by going to Settings > System > Software Update on their devices.
The update will be made globally available to the PORSCHE DESIGN HUAWEI Mate 20 RS, HUAWEI Mate 20 X(5G), HUAWEI P30 lite, HUAWEI nova 4e, HUAWEI P20, HUAWEI P20 Pro, HUAWEI Mate 10, HUAWEI Mate 10 Pro, PORSCHE DESIGN HUAWEI Mate 10, PORSCHE DESIGN HUAWEI Mate RS, HUAWEI Mate 20 lite, HUAWEI P smart 2019, HUAWEI P smart + 2019, HUAWEI P smart Pro, HUAWEI P Smart Z, HUAWEI nova 4 and HUAWEI nova Lite 3 in later months.
A new interface
EMUI10 features an all-new interface that draws inspiration from magazine layouts. Titles are presented in a much larger font for emphasis, and a grid system consolidates elements across the user interface (UI) to create a more focused layout that greatly improves the navigation experience.
A new muted colour palette consisting of six ashen colours inspired by the artist Giorgio Morandi adds subtle elegance to the Contacts interface. App icons are revised with respect to the golden ratio for a more consistent and appealing look.
The Camera app has been redesigned for simplicity. Aside from the shutter button, which now has a more modernised look, the zoom bar is larger, enabling users to more easily finetune the degree of magnification. Switching modes now triggers a large text prompt on the viewfinder to clearly indicate the change.
Additional filters are accessible directly from the viewfinder, allowing users to add artistic flair to their photos even before the shot is taken.
Dark Mode
An all-new Dark Mode presents a more comfortable way to navigate the UI. Re-engineered based on ergonomic test results conducted by Huawei’s Human Factors Lab, the upgraded feature ensures maximum legibility in the darkened interface. Colour saturation has also been adjusted so that the perceived colours are consistent between normal mode and Dark Mode.
More natural animation
UI elements now react to touch inputs quicker and in a way that is better aligned with expectations. The duration of various animations have been optimised for smoothness and comfort. Tapping an object now triggers a spring motion that varies depending on the size of the element. To deliver a smoother experience, transitions now feature double the frames compared to EMUI 9.1. When users swipe up to minimise an app, the animation follows the trajectory of the swipe. The speed of the animation is based on the speed, direction and release point of the swipe, with respect to the laws of physics.
Improved performance and security
The new Deterministic Latency Engine intelligently optimises resource allocation for foreground apps and processes to ensure they are allocated the system resources necessary for consistent optimal performance. The upgraded GPU Turbo feature reduces touch latency while delivering improved gaming performance and battery efficiency.
An isolated secure system is part of EMUI10. The microkernel of this system has achieved CC EAL 5+, the highest level of security certification for consumer device OSes globally. All payment, authentication and other sensitive operations are run on-device, preventing potential interception and theft. The connection setup, data transfer and stored information between devices are also encrypted in the system.
Multi-screen Collaboration
EMUI10 includes a new way for Huawei devices to interact with each other. Based on distributed computing, Multi-screen Collaboration enables a seamless connection between Huawei PCs and smartphones. After a simple pairing process, the smartphone can be directly controlled on the laptop display using the peripherals connected to the PC. Transferring files between the devices is as simple as dragging and dropping. The clipboard is shared between the PC and the smartphone, allowing users to copy text on one device and paste it on another.
