Honor MagicOS 10 Upgrade Guide — New AI Tools, Release Date, and Eligible Models

Honor has officially unveiled MagicOS 10, its next-generation AI-powered operating system designed to deliver a more seamless, intuitive, and fluid user experience. With a new Zero-Gravity Transparency design, an upgraded YOYO AI agent, improved performance through the Turbo X engine, and multi-device interoperability across Android, iOS, Windows, and Honor devices, this update marks a major leap forward for the ecosystem. MagicOS 10 is built not only for visual refinement but also for intelligent productivity, automation, and faster system efficiency.

Zero-Gravity Transparency Design

MagicOS 10 introduces Honor’s new visual language, Zero-Gravity Transparency, featuring translucent UI layers, smoother motion transitions, enhanced depth, and a lighter aesthetic. The interface feels cleaner and more natural while maintaining responsiveness. Key upgrades include transparent interface panels, refined haptics, smoother transitions, a redesigned Control Center with better swipe logic, and the new Magic Sidebar with a two-bar layout for faster task access. The system prioritizes clarity and fluidity without sacrificing performance.

YOYO AI Agent and AI Features

The enhanced YOYO AI agent, built on MagicLM 3.0, is more context-aware, action-capable, and creative. It can remember interactions, interpret content, and execute multi-step tasks. MagicOS 10 brings AI-powered content generation, note summarization, rewriting tools, and image editing such as cutout, eraser, and outpainting. AI Screenshot Suggestions detect context and recommend relevant apps or actions instantly. AI Deepfake Detection enhances device security by identifying manipulated audio and visuals. The OS is engineered for users who handle content daily—students, professionals, and mobile creators.

Magic Portal, Magic Sidebar, and Interaction Upgrades

Magic Portal lets users drag and drop text, images, and data between apps without switching screens manually. This simplifies workflows like copying messages to email or moving images to editors. The Magic Sidebar adapts to usage behavior and offers quick access to apps, clipboard content, and tools. The rebuilt Control Center enables faster toggle access and better layout customization. Every feature is designed to reduce steps and streamline multitasking.

Multi-Device Connectivity Across Ecosystems

MagicOS 10 expands device interoperability beyond Honor hardware. With Honor Connect, users can transfer files across Android phones, iPhones, Honor devices, and Windows PCs. Connected Call lets you receive and answer calls from a tablet or PC. Connected Inputs lets one mouse or keyboard control multiple phones or tablets. Cross-Platform File Transfer works cable-free and app-free, creating a flexible workflow experience for users with mixed-device environments.

Turbo X Performance Engine and System Optimization

The Turbo X performance engine improves software responsiveness, app startup speed, and memory allocation. Storage compression frees up space without deleting files. Animations load faster, thermal management is optimized, and power efficiency scales based on usage. Combined with AI resource handling, day-to-day performance is smoother and more energy-efficient.

Release Date and Availability

MagicOS 10 began rolling out in China on October 15, 2025, followed by a global rollout extending through Q1 2026. The first devices include the Honor Magic series, followed by the GT series, with X series units scheduled for later phases. Users can check update eligibility via Settings > System & Upgrades > Software Updates. More supported device lists are expected as the rollout expands.
