HarmonyOS development is currently in full swing, but Huawei is not taking any chances. The company knows that building HarmonyOS is not an easy task. This system will take time and serious effort from Huawei if it wants to see the light of day. At this moment, users of Huawei smartphones are already receiving the HarmonyOS 2.0 update. It's still in beta, but testing has gone smoothly so far. Users are already releasing videos about HarmonyOS 2.0 features. Yesterday there was a video showing the official ringtone of this system. Now the latest video shows that this system increases the RAM and built-in memory of smartphones.
According to popular Weibo leakster @ 长安 几君 , Huawei smartphones have received more RAM and file storage space after upgrading from Android-based EMUI 11 to HarmonyOS 2.0. Additional available RAM is more than half GB. As for storage, there's an additional 6GB of internal storage. He believes this means HarmonyOS will be lighter than Android. In addition, it seems that the memory requirements of HarmonyOS 2.0 are generally not high. This means that the system will perform better and smartphones will use less memory and storage space.
Is HarmonyOS faster than Android?
In addition, the new video shows that the reaction speed of HarmonyOS is faster than that of the Android system. However, since it's still in beta testing, it's too early to make any comparisons. It will be better to wait for the final stable version before making any conclusion. This is due to the fact that at the end of beta testing there may be a need to make this system heavier or even lighter.
Today, the official release schedule of the stable version is not very encouraging. However, based on the information so far, Huawei should start the large-scale release of HarmonyOS already in June. Huawei models like Mate 40, Mate 30, P40 and Mate X2 series will get this update. They will be among the first devices to receive this update.
According to Wang Chenglu, president of Huawei's consumer business software division and head of AI, HarmonyOS offers a unified language for analysis, interconnection and cooperation of various devices. He claims that HarmonyOS will already be running on 300 million devices this year. This includes smartphones, tablets and other IoT devices. Of this number, more than 200 million will be smartphones.
