Soon, the Huawei Mate 9 will update to Android 8.0 Oreo, the new version of the Android operating system. It seems that the Chinese firm is already testing this version in beta form, which will be accompanied by MIUI 6.0. Android Oreo is not a version that includes great news, nor is it an impressive design change, but it seems that Huawei has wanted to pamper its Mate 9 with great changes. Through the XDA Developers forum, we have been able to see different screenshots, as well as some new features. Next, we tell you
The first thing to highlight is that Android Oreo in the Huawei Mate 9 will include the news presented by Google. That is, we will have the famous Picture-In-Picture feature. As well as improvement in the application process, more power and security. It also includes improvements in notifications, as well as the notification panel through the icon. As for features added by Huawei, for MUI 6, we found one that includes the ability to change the screen resolution. We have already seen this in some Samsung devices, and the truth is that it can be very useful to extend the life of the battery.
The solution for the Home button
A button is also added to the navigation bar, which allows us to permanently hide the bar. But, the most important thing is the new gesture control on the screen. These gestures can replace the navigation bar. For example, swiping from left to right to open the recent apps drawer. Bluetooth settings have also been added in the developer options.
You can see that Huawei wants to pamper the Mate 9 as much as possible, we will see if in the final update some of these features disappear, or other much more interesting ones are added. We also expect a design change, at least for the latest models of the firm. Whatever happens, users of a Mate 9 can rest assured, there is less and less time for this device to update.
