Around April last year, Huawei released the EMUI 8.1 which brought along a new feature called Huawei Share, allowing users to share files swiftly across systems. The Huawei Share was also launched in November for its laptops with the Matebook 13 being the first model to have it. The feature was upgraded to Huawei Share OneHop with the release of EMUI 9.1 and is available on newer Matebook models with NFC. Huawei has now announced that older Huawei Matebook models will also have Huawei Share OneHop.
Of course, the feature uses NFC so Huawei has stated that from May 11, owners of Huawei MateBook X Pro, MateBook X and MateBook D (2018 models) can carry their laptop to a Huawei Customer Service Center to install an NFC tag for free. The NFC tag is a passive device with no power of its own. Accordingly, when one is used, the user touches an NFC enabled device onto the tag. A small amount of power is taken by the NFC tag from the reader/writer to power the tag electronics. For now, seems to be available in China only but we expect Huawei to roll it out globally soon.

In case you don’t know, Huawei Share OneHop allows the users to share images and videos across your laptop and phone at incredible speeds. All the user need to do is tap the NFC detection area of the phone to the Share tag or label on the laptop and Viola, you can start sharing files. Official data shows that the Huawei P30 series can transfer up to 500 photos to a Notebook in 1 minute.
