Honor announced MagicOS 8.0 in China at the beginning of the year. The user interface is based on Android 14 and brings MagicLM on-device large language model with 7 billion parameters to the Magic6 flagships.
Yesterday Honor began seeding the new version of its UI to its overseas devices. Multiple users from all regions reported on the Honor subreddit that they are receiving MagicOS 8.0 on their Magic5 Pro devices.
Here’s the full log, shared by user badday0401:
MagicOS 8.0 changelog
The new features are split into 7 different categories. The new interface is smooth and seamless, while the Home Screen got better with Magic Capsule and Quick Services — something that has been missing from other MagicOS variants since Honor became an independent company.
Users with MagicOS 8 will be able to edit media more easily; there’s also a longer battery life with a long-awaited Ultra Power Saving mode, and have some security features like Parallel Space – a secure folder for apps, photos, and videos.
