Huawei plans to release a new version of their Emotion UI this Fall. At the helms of the design team, is Abigail Brody who has worked for Apple and Ebay. The design team has focused on the use of more colors just like Xiaomi is doing with MIUI 8. The new UI will also be closer to stock android and allow more customizations.

The above designs were leaked on the Chinese social networking website, Weibo by KJuma, who is known to leak such information on a regular basis. The new interface should be welcomed by users outside Asia as one of the gripes about Asian brands is their UIs which are usually designed without a focus for customers in the West.

Huawei has evolved as a small time smartphone manufacturer, to the third largest phone maker in the world. Given that now millions of Huawei smartphones are being used by customers worldwide, it becomes necessary for the company to evolve its user interface well. For all those who thought that Huawei needed to revamp its EMUI ROM, here’s some good news. A new report states that Huawei plans to make major changes to the EMUI 5.0 version that will be announced later this year.

And these changes will be for the good as it is said that the company’s EMUI 5.0 will now lean more towards a stock Android look. The company seems to have taken this decision with Western customers in mind. We have seen that most Android users love the simple stock Android UI on their smartphones, which is probably why the company is deciding to make over its user interface. Given that the company aims to strengthen its reach in the mature markets of US and Europe, this could be a much-needed change. The current generation EMUI versions like the EMUI 4.1 comes with complex UI design and menus. After the change, the UI will be simple, but Li Changzhu, Huawei’s Mobile Division executive assures that users will still be able to enjoy advanced features as well as customize the new UI.
