THE FULL MOBILE EXPERIENCE

Another key differentiator for HMS is Huawei’s ‘1+8+N’ strategy, where the smartphone serves as one (1) centre, connecting across eight (8) supporting devices – from wearables to tablets – to create a fully-connected IoT environment consisting of endless (N) services.

“In the Huawei ecosystem, HMS is the coordination and management centre between devices, apps and end-users that maximises user experience. Together with Huawei’s 5G network, AI-powered system and cloud computing solution, we strive to establish seamless AI living for all,” said Mr Zhang. Huawei is also adopting a “glocal” approach to HMS that will feature popular native apps as well as apps that have been customised for local users. This could include apps that work as a digital wallet in specific markets or apps that can unlock smart lockers.

Special effects take us into another world, and the Mate Pro 30 adds that functionality with its Ultra Slow-motion Video at 7,680fps as seen above in the GIF. A feat that was previously only available on professional super-speed cameras has now been engineered into Huawei’s new smartphone, and allows you to as much as 256 times the speed. The Cine Camera allows for super-fast read and write, and when paired with the new Kirin 990 chip, means the horsepower needed to produce striking slow-motion sequences is realised with ease. Extra software capabilities support this effort, with AI-assisted motion prediction and compensation for steady visuals throughout.
