Huawei mobilizes 2000 users for a HarmonyOS beta program seeking “a purer and safer system”

• Huawei Mate 60
• Huawei Mate 60 Pro
• Huawei Mate 60 Pro+

The new version of Huawei’s HarmonyOS is said to bring “simpler and easier to use operations” and “a purer and safer system” with “better user experience” (via GizChina).

A pack of new features are expected to bless users with updated and enhanced interface, system security, and overall smoothness. Here’s what the report states:

1. The Art Protagonist theme brings the new function of changing the custom background.
2. There’ll be a new function available that allows recording clearer recordings via Bluetooth devices.
3. The overall performance of the system has been improved. This makes the operation smoother in various scenarios such as task switching, application startup, and more.
4. In terms of system security, a device-cloud cooperation mechanism has been established. This is to achieve more accurate and rapid control of malicious apps. Also, it adds an anti-false alarm mechanism for viruses and risky apps. This is to make the HarmonyOS system purer and safer.
