According to netizens’ consultation with Huawei customer service, they received a reply:Huawei will gradually launch the new version of Hongmeng 6 in the middle and late this month to support the 5A communication network display of older models, covering a large number of models such as Mate 70/60/X6 and Pura 70/80 series. In fact, the original hardware of these models has 5A communication capabilities, but the system was not displayed in the status bar before. This time, it will be displayed directly after the new system is pushed.
We need to remind everyone that 5A is not actually a network standard, but refers to a 5A-level high-quality network experience.
Huawei said that 5A represents the advanced communication technology of Huawei terminals, which can bring a comprehensive communication experience of faster access, faster network speed, lower latency, and more stable connection, and is mainly used to solve the network pain points in users' daily use.
In actual experience, 5A can bring faster network speeds outside the basement and a more efficient large file download experience; it can effectively reduce lags in delay-sensitive scenarios such as ticket grabbing.
At the same time, it can still maintain a stable connection in weak signal environments such as mountainous areas and rural areas, and network switching in scenarios such as elevators is also more stable.
Officials have emphasized many times before that 5A is not the same as 5G-A (5GA), nor is it the same as 5.5G.
5G is the fifth generation of communication technology and a network standard; 5G-A (5GA)/5.5G is an evolved version of 5G.
Specific models of OTA 5A this month include Mate 60 series, Mate 70 series (including Premium Edition), Mate 70 Air, Mate X5 series, Mate X6 series, Mate XT Master, Mate XTs, Pura 70 series, Pura 80 series, Pura Flip/nova Flip S, nova 14 series.
In addition, there are a variety of MatePad tablets, such as MatePad Pro 13.2, MatePad Pro 12.2 (2024 model) and MatePad mini 8.8.
