New Delhi: Huawei's sub-brand Honor on Monday announced the roll out of Emotion User Interface (EMUI) 8.0 based on Android Oreo 8.0 on Honor 7X devices.
EMUI 8.0 comes with three new features including the "ride mode, game suite and shortcut to Paytm" along with improved smart resolution, dynamic wallpapers and navigation bar customisations, the company said in a statement.
"The upgraded EMUI 8.0 is a technological software which is efficient, secure, user friendly and will enable the users to reach 90 per cent of the core functions in just 3 clicks," said P Sanjeev, vice president, Sales, Huawei Consumer Business Group.
The newly added "ride mode", on activation will notify callers if the user is unavailable to answer calls while riding or driving in order to promote road safety.
