At the HDC 2024 event, Huawei introduced the HarmonyOS NEXT beta. The company also initiated developer beta testing for three major devices: the Mate 60 Pro, the Mate X5 foldable, and the MatePad Pro 13.2 tablet.
Despite the focus on premium models, Pura 70 smartphones are also included in the HarmonyOS NEXT developer beta testing. Initially, the official timeline indicated that this lineup would receive the developer beta in August.
Huawei has already started adapting HarmonyOS NEXT for the Pura 70 series, with the process now underway for these top-end handsets.

Huawei has introduced a new ‘Scan to Go’ feature with HarmonyOS NEXT. This enhancement improves the existing code-scanning feature, simplifying the process and reducing the steps needed to scan a QR code for various tasks.
An ordinary code scan feature requires several steps to complete the task. Users need to scan the QR code, after which the feature identifies the app to which the QR code belongs, finds the app, opens it, and then searches for the scan code entry again.
This process is often time-consuming. However, Huawei has changed this with HarmonyOS NEXT. The new ‘Scan to Go’ feature allows users to enter the code interface of any app directly, eliminating the need for multiple taps and a lengthy procedure.
If you don’t have the required app on your Huawei device, the ‘Scan to Go’ feature will automatically direct you to the app’s download page on the AppGallery for easy access.
The ‘Scan to Go’ feature in HarmonyOS NEXT supports all types of QR codes and is available in the camera app of Huawei devices. Users can also add this feature to the control center or the lock screen for added convenience.
The feature supports a ‘one-click scan’ whether your phone is locked or unlocked, allowing you to use it for payments, ordering food, booking rides, paying rent and electricity bills, express deliveries, and more.
‘Scan to Go’ also includes automatic zoom, capable of scanning an 18 x 18 cm code from 18 meters away under appropriate lighting conditions. In low light, it achieves 92% accuracy using low-light algorithms with a scanning delay of 550 ms.
This is just the beginning, and there could be even more hidden features that Huawei will reveal to consumers with the first beta rollout in the coming months.
