On June 1, 2026, the HUAWEI nova 16 series and full-scenario new product launch conference will be held as scheduled.
At this high-profile technology event, Huawei Device BG CEO He Gang officially released a new upgraded version of Huawei’s Hongmeng Smart Home “1+3+N” solution.
This time, Huawei did not stay at the basic level of device interconnection. Instead, it brought whole-house intelligence into a new stage of “perceivable, communicable, thinkable, and executable” through the in-depth injection of AI capabilities and the collaborative evolution of the entire ecosystem.
This is a landmark moment for the whole-house intelligence industry.
In the past ten years, the industry has experienced an evolution from single-product intelligence to multi-device interconnection, but it has never been able to break through the bottleneck of “passive response”.
The user needs to actively issue instructions before the device can perform the corresponding operation.
This upgrade of Huawei’s Hongmeng Smart Home is aimed at the pain points of this industry. Through the full ecology and AI evolution, the home has changed from an “obedient tool” to a “partner who understands you.”
Before interpreting the technology upgrade, there is a set of data worthy of attention: Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home has ranked first in the market share of finely decorated houses for four consecutive years.
Behind this achievement is Huawei’s years of continuous development around the “1+3+N” solution and its in-depth cooperation with industry leaders.
Currently, Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home has reached strategic cooperation with most of the leading domestic real estate brands such as Vanke and Poly.
In the field of high-end real estate, working with Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home to build smart communities and smart model rooms has become a priority to enhance product competitiveness.
This is not only recognition of Huawei’s technical strength, but also the market’s vote for the Hongmeng Smart Home experience.
Unlike other smart home brands, Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home has chosen the path of “open ecology” from the beginning.
Through the three-layer ecological layout of Hongmeng Smart Connect, Hongmeng Smart Selection, and Huawei’s self-developed, Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home has built a reliable, healthy, smart, and rich smart home ecosystem.
Up to now, Hongmeng Zhilian has connected to more than 3,200 brands and more than 400 categories of smart devices, covering all aspects of family life.
This open ecological strategy allows Huawei to quickly integrate high-quality industry resources and provide users with richer and more personalized choices.
The highlight of this upgrade is undoubtedly the full access to Xiaoyi Claw.
This allows home intelligence to continuously learn, proactively collaborate, and dynamically evolve based on user habits and scene changes, achieving an experience transition from “single-point intelligence” to “whole-house collaborative intelligence.”
Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home builds a global smart base based on a large cloud model, and innovatively brings AI capabilities to the home, creating an exclusive local home brain that understands users and home scenarios better.
Unlike traditional cloud AI, local home brains can better protect user privacy while providing lower latency response speeds.
The access of Xiaoyi Claw is not a simple function superposition, but truly penetrates AI capabilities into every minute moment of family life, turning smart services from “coming upon request” to “coming upon request”.
At 7 o’clock in the morning, the bedroom curtains will slowly open at the time you are accustomed to, and soft natural light will pour into the room.
At this time, Xiaoyi Claw will push the status of home equipment, security alarms, and the situation of the elderly and children at home according to preset needs, so that you no longer need to open the mobile APP one by one to view information. Even if you are on a business trip, you can easily obtain family updates. This is the family briefing function brought by Xiaoyi Claw, which can eliminate worries in your life.
When you get home from get off work, the moment you open the door, the entrance light automatically turns on, and the air conditioner has been adjusted to your preferred 25 degrees.
If you feel a little cold, just casually say “I’m a little cold”, and the system will automatically increase the temperature of the air conditioner and close the windows in the living room – you don’t need to accurately say “set the air conditioner in the living room to 27 degrees”, let alone manually close the windows. Xiaoyi Claw’s fuzzy command understanding ability can understand the real needs behind your words, automatically link multiple devices, and complete a complete set of scene switching.
Communication between family members has also become warmer and more convenient.
If your child is not awake when you go out in the morning, you can say to the Xiaoyi Claw smart door lock: “Leave a message to your child to remind him to cool down, put on clothes, and complete his homework seriously.”
When the child opens the door and comes home from school, the door lock recognizes the corresponding identity, and your message will be played automatically.
This door lock message function is more timely than text messages on mobile phones, and more warm than notes posted on the refrigerator, so that busy family members will not miss any words of concern.
More importantly, Xiaoyi Claw has the ability to continue to learn independently.
It will silently observe and remember the living habits of the whole family: knowing that you turn off the lights to go to bed at 10:30 every night, it will automatically dim the lights in the bedroom when the time comes; knowing that dad likes to turn on cool white light when working in the study, and mom likes to turn on warm yellow light when reading in the living room; knowing that the child will get up an hour late on weekends, it will automatically delay the time to open the curtains.
You don’t need to set any of these manually. The system will continue to learn and optimize during daily use, and the more you use it, the better it will understand you.
For families who raise pets, Xiaoyi Claw’s pet care and intelligent care function solves a major pain point.
When you usually go out or go to work and are worried that your pet will not be taken care of, Xiaoyi Claw will link with pet equipment throughout the house to report the number of feedings, toilet visits, and adjust the room temperature.
You can also remotely trigger the feeder to add snacks at any time through voice commands, and remotely accompany your pets, so that furry children who are alone at home are no longer lonely.
It is worth mentioning that all these learning and calculation processes are completed in the local home brain without uploading to the cloud. While ensuring low-latency response, it also protects the user’s home privacy to the greatest extent.
If AI capabilities are the brain of Hongmeng Smart Home, then the interaction method is the nerve that connects people and homes.
With this upgrade, Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home has brought about comprehensive innovations in the three major interaction methods of voice, touch, and non-sense, achieving a leap from “people adapt to devices” to “devices understand people.”
In terms of voice interaction, the newly upgraded Xiaoyi Butler 6.0 supports in-depth semantic understanding and can realize multiple functional modes such as “3D directional light control”, “Scene Master”, “directional noise reduction” and “whispering”.
After debugging, the user can say “dim the light on the left side of the living room a little” without naming the specific light, and the device will respond accurately; or they can just say “I want to watch a movie” and the system will execute the preset mode, automatically turn off the lights, close the curtains, turn on the TV and adjust the volume to the appropriate volume.
Even in a noisy environment or speaking softly, Xiaoyi Butler can accurately recognize instructions.
In terms of touch interaction, Huawei has integrated smart touch into various touch points in the home, such as walls, desktops, hands and even cars.
The smart central control screen S2 can support users to control the whole house equipment across spaces or use it on the move, just pick it up and use it; the smart central control screen MINI focuses on the fine control of a single space. It can realize full control of six subsystems such as sunshade, lighting, heating and cooling fresh air, audio and video entertainment, home appliances, and furniture and furniture on one screen.
Senseless interaction is the ultimate form of smart home.
Huawei’s Hongmeng Smart Home uses AI super-sensing sensors and AI-assisted health and wellness sensors to achieve basic intelligent services of “lights on when people come and lights off when people leave”, and can go deeper into the field of health care.
The AI-assisted wellness sensor can sense the user’s sleep status on a daily basis and generate detailed sleep reports to help users improve their sleep quality.
When an elderly person falls, falls off the bed and other unexpected situations, the sensor can also send out a timely alarm, providing an important guarantee for home safety.
Technological progress must ultimately serve users.
In order to allow more users to enjoy the convenience of smart home, Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home has enriched ecological products while greatly lowering the purchase and installation threshold for users.
At this conference, Huawei brought a variety of new Hongmeng Smart Selection ecological products, covering multiple core scenarios such as healthy air and healthy water.
In terms of healthy air, Huawei has innovatively proposed the “Double 37” gold standard (noise ≤ 37 decibels, fresh air volume ≥ 37 m³/h), and launched two true fresh air air conditioners that meet this standard – Hongmeng Smart Selection Midea Smart Air Conditioner Air Machine Pro and Hongmeng Smart Selection MEIPONT smart air conditioner Fengshen Eye and Hongmeng True Fresh Air.
These two products solve the contradiction of “the incompatibility of fresh air volume and noise”, allowing you to enjoy a quiet sleeping environment while enjoying fresh air and good air.
In terms of healthy water solutions, Huawei has brought Hongmeng Smart Selection Wrigley Smart Bath Heater Radar Bath Heater series and Hongmeng Smart Selection Wrigley Smart Shower Zhiyu Elf series products.
These products can be linked with other smart products in the bathroom. For example, when a user enters the bathroom, the bathroom heater automatically turns on preheating, and the shower head automatically adjusts to the water temperature that the user is accustomed to, creating a new smart bathing experience.
What’s more worth mentioning is that Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home has launched a DIY solution covering local scenes and whole-house smart modifications, providing users with accurate and low-threshold smart upgrade options.
The smart children’s room includes smart items such as air-conditioning companions, AI speakers, smart desk lamps, etc. It supports users to DIY at will, creating an eye-protecting and focused learning environment and a constant temperature and oxygen-rich sleeping environment for children.
There is no need to tear down walls and wire wiring, and users can complete the renovation and upgrade at home.
For users who want to fully upgrade, the DIY plan of two bedrooms and one living room launched this time only starts at 5,999 yuan, and supports users to adjust according to their personalized needs.
A wide range of Hongmeng Smart Connect products can be searched in the Smart Life App, and some products can be purchased directly by jumping to the e-commerce page. Users can search and place orders according to their own needs, easily realizing DIY transformation of smart homes.
Looking back at the development history of the smart home industry, we can clearly see three stages: the 1.0 era is single-product intelligence, and devices work independently; the 2.0 era is interconnected intelligence, and devices can communicate with each other; and the upgrade of Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home marks that the industry has officially entered the 3.0 era – the era of active intelligence.
In the era of active intelligence, smart home is no longer a simple collection of devices, but an organic whole.
It can sense user needs, understand user habits, think about the best solutions, and proactively perform corresponding operations.
The improvement of this experience does not rely on the technological breakthrough of a single product, but on the collaborative evolution of the entire ecosystem.
Huawei’s advantage is that it has full-stack technical capabilities from chips, operating systems to cloud services, and at the same time has built an open and inclusive ecosystem.
This two-wheel drive model of “technology + ecology” allows Huawei Hongmeng Smart Home to continue to lead the development direction of the industry.
Ranking first in the market share of finely decorated homes for four consecutive years has proven the market’s recognition of Huawei’s Hongmeng Smart Home model.
In the future, with the continuous advancement of AI technology and the continuous enrichment of the ecosystem, whole-house intelligence will become smarter, more considerate, and more popular.
Huawei’s Hongmeng Smart Home’s full ecosystem and AI evolution not only bring a better experience to users, but also set a new benchmark for the entire industry.
We have reason to believe that in the near future, the “home with active service” will no longer be a scene in science fiction movies, but will become a reality for thousands of households.
