Huawei's Mate70 series, lauded as the "most powerful Mate ever," has garnered significant attention since its November launch. Featuring Star Flash technology across its lineup and starting at 5499, it offers a premium flagship experience. Simultaneously, the Huawei Mate70 series and the MateX6 foldable phone have achieved a major milestone in HarmonyOS ecosystem development, receiving OpenHarmony compatibility certification and launching a public beta program for HarmonyOS NEXT.

The Huawei models receiving OpenHarmony compatibility certification include the Mate70, Mate70 Pro, Mate70 Pro+, Mate70 RS Porsche Design, and MateX6. The Huawei MateX6 foldable phone passed the OpenHarmony compatibility test for the first time, running OpenHarmony 5.0.1 Release (software version ICL-AL105.0.0.111 (C00E110R4P7)). The four Mate70 models passed the OpenHarmony compatibility test again on December 5th, also running OpenHarmony 5.0.1 Release. Notably, this series initially received certification in November with OpenHarmony 5.0.0 Release. This demonstrates Huawei's ongoing commitment to optimizing and upgrading the OpenHarmony system and actively promoting its adoption in its flagship devices.

The release of OpenHarmony 5.0.1 Release marks a significant leap in the capabilities of the open-source HarmonyOS. Compared to the 5.0.0 Release, this upgrade focuses on continuously improving and enhancing system capabilities, rapidly introducing API 13. This includes significant CAPI enhancements across numerous areas: application framework, ArkTS, data management, file management, multimedia processing, network connectivity, system function control, and clipboard functionality.

Specifically, in the application framework, OpenHarmony 5.0.1 Release enhances application query capabilities, providing developers with more convenient application management tools. In ArkTS, the new version adds node custom attribute setting capabilities, giving developers greater freedom in UI customization. Improvements to Preferences data management make data storage and retrieval more efficient and reliable. Enhanced file management improves system file operation efficiency, providing users with a smoother experience.

In multimedia processing, OpenHarmony 5.0.1 Release optimizes AVSession, improving multimedia application performance and stability. Improvements to the event notification mechanism enhance system information transmission efficiency, providing users with more timely and accurate feedback. In network connectivity, the new version adds query capabilities for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, location services switches, and cellular network functionalities, offering developers richer network control options.

Furthermore, OpenHarmony 5.0.1 Release optimizes and enhances key system features. For example, camera capability optimization provides richer shooting scenarios, enhancing the fun and practicality of mobile photography. Simultaneously, enhancements and optimizations to Web component capabilities improve the user experience of Web applications, making them smoother and more stable.

These improvements are interconnected and work synergistically to create a more powerful, stable, and user-friendly operating system. The release of OpenHarmony 5.0.1 Release not only reflects the enthusiasm and vitality of the open-source community but also provides developers with a more complete development environment and richer API interfaces. This will further drive the prosperity of the OpenHarmony ecosystem, attracting more developers to participate in the development of open-source HarmonyOS.

To allow more users to experience the appeal of HarmonyOS NEXT, Huawei launched a public beta program this month. Huawei Mate70 series and MateX6 users can participate in the public beta after receiving their new devices, experiencing the latest features of HarmonyOS NEXT firsthand. This will undoubtedly further promote the iterative optimization of the HarmonyOS system and accelerate its market penetration and adoption.

The OpenHarmony compatibility certification and HarmonyOS NEXT public beta for the Huawei Mate70 series and MateX6 represent another significant milestone in Huawei's journey to build a self-reliant and controllable operating system ecosystem. It not only showcases Huawei's technological innovation capabilities but also injects new vitality into the development of domestic operating systems. Future trends indicate that OpenHarmony will be deployed on more Huawei devices, further enhancing its ecosystem and providing users with an even better experience. This signifies Huawei's continued investment in HarmonyOS ecosystem development, providing users with a more stable, smoother, and feature-rich mobile experience. Through continuous system upgrades and public beta programs, Huawei aims to develop HarmonyOS into a powerful and user-friendly operating system, bringing users a more convenient and intelligent lifestyle. Simultaneously, Huawei actively participates in the development of the open-source community, promoting the continuous development of OpenHarmony and providing a broader development platform for global developers. This not only helps to improve China's competitiveness in the global operating system field but also promotes the common progress of the global technology industry.

The dual assurance of OpenHarmony compatibility certification and the HarmonyOS NEXT public beta will significantly improve the software experience of the Huawei Mate70 series and MateX6, providing consumers with higher-quality products and services. This also reflects Huawei's high regard for user experience and unwavering commitment to independent innovation. In the future, we can look forward to Huawei achieving even greater breakthroughs in the OpenHarmony ecosystem, bringing more surprises to users.
