Huawei Continuously Innovates with Smart PCs, Pioneering AI Exploration

It’s well known that the Smartisan S7 previously appeared alongside Huawei PCs, demonstrating the significance of PCs in Huawei’s strategic layout. Not long ago, Huawei proposed a comprehensive intelligentization strategy, aiming to create a solid computational foundation in China. In this grand vision, PCs are an indispensable part of the edge-side computation, and Huawei has been laying the groundwork for AI since early on.

As early as the launch of its first laptop, Huawei integrated AI and big data technologies into its product design, embodying the concept of smart PCs and providing users with a more complete smart interaction experience.

In 2016, Huawei introduced the “Mate8+MateBook” new business combination, aiming to meet the full-scene needs of the fashionable new business era and initially laying out the full-scene smart office ecosystem for PCs.

In 2017, Huawei released the revolutionary Huawei MateBook X, introducing Huawei Share feature for more convenient data transfer experience. The following year, Huawei further upgraded the Huawei Share feature to version 3.0, breaking hardware ecosystem barriers.

In 2019, Huawei introduced multi-screen collaboration feature, achieving seamless connection between smartphones and PCs for smoother cross-device operation experience.

In 2022, Huawei once again led the industry by introducing the “Super Terminal” feature, seamlessly integrating PCs with smartphones, tablets, headphones, smart screens, and other devices, providing users with a more powerful smart office experience.

Huawei’s Pangu Mega Model Might Empower the New Huawei MateBook X Pro

In 2024, Huawei’s smart PCs are poised for another round of evolution. It is speculated that this time, the Huawei Pangu mega model will empower the Huawei MateBook X Pro, comprehensively enhancing the new product’s AI capabilities.

Pangu Mega Model is a completely self-developed AI mega model by Huawei, which has been applied in more than 10 industries and has launched over 2500 industry AI solutions, providing scalable services for various industry scenarios.

Previously, the new Xiao Yi from the Huawei Mate 60 series benefited from Huawei Pangu mega model technology, better understanding users and providing more precise feedback, such as local digital content search, dialogue recognition of screen content, assisting users with rapid summarization, copywriting assistance, secondary creation of images, and more.

Applying Huawei’s Pangu Mega Model to the new Huawei MateBook X Pro is expected to bring users a more personalized intelligent interaction experience. For example, upgrading in voice recognition will allow users to perform various operations more freely through voice, achieving seamless human-machine interaction.

Furthermore, the smart search experience combined with Huawei’s Pangu Mega Model technology will enable users to find information across multiple devices with a single sentence, further enhancing retrieval efficiency. Additionally, users’ learning and office experiences will be thoroughly revolutionized, such as automatic analysis of reports, report writing, PPT production, etc., freeing users from mundane tasks.

The new Huawei MateBook X Pro is also likely to bring more efficient super terminal multi-device interconnection, achieving more intelligent multi-screen collaboration through stronger hardware support and intelligent algorithm optimization. This will make our work more efficient, and learning and entertainment more convenient, leading the PC industry towards a more intelligent and user-friendly future.

Looking forward to the surprises that this brand new Huawei smart PC will bring us!
