When receiving the invitation letter of a hydrogenated OS, it was noted that there will be showers in Beijing on the afternoon of May 28, so please take rain gear when you go out. Fortunately, it didn't rain until the end of the press conference. But some things will come eventually, even if "it" comes later than expected.
"Although beautiful things are worth waiting for, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." This is Liu Zuohu's first sentence after he took office. Liu Zuohu is straightforward and likes to laugh. The state of the whole conference was basically the same as that of him in the photo. Even if there were some problems with the network during the demonstration, he basically didn't make the atmosphere embarrassed except for complaining incessantly.
"The hydrogen OS released today is a milestone for Yijia," Liu Zuohu said. So after the opening, Liu Zuohu combed his mental process of doing hydrogen OS. "Yijia's loyal users have suffered some grievances, which makes me sad." The reason is simple. When domestic mobile phone manufacturers are pursuing better user experience on customized systems, Yijia has no say in this matter.
Liu Zuohu's belief in making products is to "pursue the ultimate user experience", so when an English teacher said that his hardware maker could not make good software, he thought it was illogical. In order to catch up with the "wind tunnel" of smart phones, or because of insufficient capital, Yijia chose to cooperate with CM. Later, when the one-year period expired, Liu Zuohu thought: "When everyone is trying to make Android into iOS, we must make it a real Android."
According to his description, when he saw Material Design, he probably knew what the real Android should look like.
Zeng Xi is the product manager of hydrogen OS. He interpreted the design concept of hydrogen OS as follows: durable colors/basic graphics. In order to make the abstract definition acceptable, he almost reviewed the whole world art history.
Maybe the amount of information is too large, and the pictures are switched too fast. The audience next to them looked blankly at the reporter of Lei Feng.com and said, "Do you understand? It seems very powerful." In fact, not understanding is not the key. What is important is to make people feel powerful.
However, Liu Zuohu is a real person. When he takes the stage again, he is ready to conquer the audience that has been intimidated with practical effects. The key points are as follows:
1、 Redesigned APP icon and UI interface
2、 Beautiful wallpaper: hydrogen window
3、 Cut the Dock Bar
4、 Optimize interaction logic, and focus on sliding operation
5、 Card type SMS with integrated functions to save "out of favor" SMS
6、 Optimize the Android notification center to make the desktop simple and efficient
Because of time, Liu Zuohu simply demonstrated a few innovations in hydrogen OS, some of which are amazing and some of which are worth discussing. Liu Zuohu responded to the query of Lei Feng.com reporter, "You will know after you use it."
With an open mind, Yijia's attitude towards mobile phones was "Allow Root/Scrub Warranty", and the most enthusiastic applause was given to this "fever" declaration. At the end of the press conference, Liu Zuohu thanked many partners and said that the internal test recruitment of hydrogen OS would start at 17:00 this afternoon, and the public test time would be announced when the internal test feedback was good.
Today, launching a press conference for a set of customized ROMs has almost become the industry standard. Judging from today's demonstration content, the degree of completion of hydrogen OS is still not very high. Although the UI team has grown rapidly from more than 10 people last October to more than 100 people, it is still hard to cope with the huge workload. Liu Zuohu said that how to optimize power consumption and memory is a top priority. In addition, he will not consider adapting other people's mobile phones for the time being.
