EMUI 11 testing to start at the end of September and early October

Huawei Developer Conference 2020 will hold from September 10th to September 12th. According to Huawei’s official website, it will share the latest developments of HMS Core 5.0 at the conference. It will also unveil the mystery of HarmonyOS and EMUI 11. According to Weibo blogger @长安数码君, Huawei EMUI 11 will be more friendly to cross-applications. Furthermore, he also revealed that the testing of EMUI 11 will commence at the end of September and early October. 

In accordance with previous practices, Huawei EMUI 11 will be built based on the Android 11 open source project (AOSP), with a fully pre-installed HMS ecosystem. 

EMUI 11 APPEARS ON HUAWEI APPLICATION STORE

Huawei recently updated the membership center of the Huawei Application Store for Chinese users. The update comes with some information about EMUI 11. In the description, the update adds the phrase “optimizations for EMUI 11 styles”.

There are reports that the EMUI 11 system will be on top of Google’s Android 11 system. The latest Huawei software user interface will come with a large number of new functions. One of the core features is that it will deeply integrate HMS.

The general expectation is that EMUI 11 will arrive with the Huawei Mate 40 series. However, the likes of Huawei P40 series and Mate 30 series will be one of the earliest devices to get the beta update. These updates should arrive in the third/fourth quarter of this year. In fact, there is more specific speculation that claims that EMUI 11 will arrive in September.

This year, Android 11 will still focus on privacy protection, notification optimization, and battery life improvement. It will also focus on a plethora of features that will make the system more fluent.

According to Huawei’s official website, the company will hold a user conference in Suzhou on July 2. Also, Huawei has another conference in Shanghai scheduled for September. While we expect to get some information about EMUI11 at the July conference, the September conference will be a good time to release the update. Moreso, Huawei’s September conference coincides with Google’s timeline for Android 11 release.

As of now, Google’s Android 11 is still in testing. The third developer’s preview hit the road some days ago. The first and second developers preview arrived in February and March respectively.

HUAWEI EMUI 11 WILL FURTHER DEVELOP HUAWEI DISTRIBUTED TECHNOLOGY

EMUI realizes cross-device service and migration through meta-capabilities, local virtualization of external device services, and natural perceptual interaction between users and devices. It achieves this through a distributed and integrated information perception platform. Thus, the system builds a distributed multi-device collaboration capabilities.

EMUI’s multi-screen collaboration function actually opens up Windows and Android applicability. It eliminates the barriers between different systems and makes mobile phones a peripheral device for each other to achieve complete integration.

Simply put, the “Distributed Technology” can create a “super device” that allows information to flow seamlessly among multiple terminals. It also creates the ability of each terminal to share mutual assistance and peripherals with each other. This will make it feel like these devices are running on the same terminal for applications.
