Honor 7X EMUI 8.0 beta: Key Features

As you would expect, EMUI 8.0 does include pretty much all the core Android 8.0 Oreo features such as notification dots, new emojis, picture-in-picture mode, and more. In addition to these, EMUI 8.0 also includes a number of Huawei-specific features aimed at providing a smoother and more intuitive experience to users. Some of the key changes include a new floating navigation dock, new home screen shortcuts, AI-based optimizations, faster boot up, more responsive system performance, latest security updates, and a Portrait mode that lets users capture attractive selfies with bokeh effects.
