MagicOS 8 new Beta for Magic 4 Ultimate - Swipe down for notifications added!!!

I show you the brand new beta update of Magic OS 8 on my Magic 4 Ultimate.
Best new feature for many is the swipe down for notifications and control center as well as the colour adjustments for themes.

Hi, I have magic v2 china version with Magicos 7.2. How can ı have magicos 8 beta version for google services. What do I need to do to get an update? Thanks

[@lltechview]

You need to apply for the beta in the My Honor app. Use a chinese translator if you cannot read it to go to beta updates and apply for the update. I think you also might need a chinese phone number by now to do so as well. I can't remember if it worked with my german one back when I applied for the beta.

[@omer0809.]

Yes, I did it all until the last step. But unfortunately, in the last step, it asks for a Chinese number. Where can I find a Chinese number in Europe? 😅

[@alifcsnajmi]

Currently Magic OS vs Funtouch/Colour OS vs Hyper OS which has the most fluid animation (or stable) that is similar to ios since you seems to have tried all of them?

[@lltechview]

HyperOS. Then ColorOS. Last amongst the three would be Magic OS

[@alifcsnajmi]

@@lltechview Aw.. Is there a huge diffrence between them? (I mean the animations of course ). Because right now I am thinking about The Magic 5 Pro more than Xiaomi 13 Pro/Ultra or X90 Pro or Find X6 Pro (Just Because of the better battery and kind of better screens tbh or maybe gaming stability when mentioning the xiaomi). But yeah the animation kind of gives an old school third party launcher sometimes with Magic Os which throws me of since it's 2024. And the fact that your reviews and ranking shows that Oppo/Vivo have the better camera processing also makes me want to change my mind more about this but i'm still not sure by how much. Anyways thanks for the reply :D

[@lltechview]

@@alifcsnajmi HyperOS feels a bit more consistent with their animations. ColorOS misses a little bit of the sparkle like app icons that animate on close and some other subtle animations that just feel more attention to details. MagicOS only with version 8 can reach the smoothness of maybe ColorOS but lacks those little attention to details completely. But as MagicOS 8 is still beta that might change.

[@alifcsnajmi]

@@lltechview I hope it may change for Magic OS. Thanks for replying :D It's rare to see somebody covers about Magic OS properly. Most people just say yes it's fast but the attention to detail atleast in the older 7.1 is really old school at times but also fine at times. You are one of those that actually have used them all without too much biased between all of them. I haven't got to try HyperOS yet but did tried MIUI 14 and it already feels like the best between of them. And yes those animated app icons are such little attention to detail that no other skins have but the funny thing is it's been like 5 years or more since they have animated app icons and nobody really tried to copy it. Looks like my decision just got harder since your experience with three of them is different and I really do like HyperOS design at times even though it is too similar to something else. Their habit of copying apple actually isn't half baked since like you say they also have the little attention to details in their animation which is satisfying to see when you just want to see it. Will check out later when magic os 8 stable release. Subscribed to you just in case you covered it later. Hope you can also compare them between each other for those little attention to details that are lacking :D Thanks for taking your time to reply :D Your style of reviewing and analyzing is really like a tech enthusiast more than a normal user which is nice for when I want see the little things that is not so great or great.
