Today, Midea officially announced on its WeChat account that it will launch home appliances powered by Huawei HarmonyOS for the first time. Midea has become one of the first home appliance companies to support HarmonyOS.
Midea is a Chinese home appliance manufacturer headquartered in Foshan, Guangdong Province, and is listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
According to reports, the Midea product with HarmonyOS is the Aurora Smart Interactive Experience Set, which covers a full range of home appliances, including smart stoves, range hoods, dishwashers, electric water heaters, gas water heaters, and water purifiers.
The HarmonyOS also enables cross-scenario connectivity for Huawei Mate 40 series devices, bringing users a new experience of interconnectedness and human-computer interaction in daily life.
The new home appliances that Midea will launch at this time will bring three significant improvements. The first is the fast network deployment feature. With just a touch on your phone, devices can be set up on the network within 3 seconds using the Wi-Fi Aware network configuration protocol.
The second is screenless direct connection, which allows real-time monitoring of device status via the phone’s interface, including operational status and consumable alerts. The third is direct service, where a simple touch on the phone provides one-touch access to factory services such as cleaning, maintenance, and consumable procurement.
In September, at the Huawei Developer Conference, Huawei revealed that the first batch of home appliance manufacturers to support HarmonyOS included Midea, Joyoung, and Boss Electric.
