Back in January Samsung launched Google’s Circle to Search feature on its Galaxy S24 family, and then Google also brought it to its Pixels. Fast forward a few months, and we’re now finally starting to see this feature escape the Google and Samsung shackles of exclusivity.
Today Honor has announced that it’s bringing Circle to Search to the Magic V3 and the 200 series. Circle to Search, as the name implies, lets you find out more information about anything that you circle, highlight, or scribble on your phone’s screen.
The rollout already seems to be underway. You will need to install a software update in order to make the feature work on your Honor device.
George Zhao, CEO of Honor, said:
Enhancements in AI are transforming the way we work, learn, shop, create and interact with our devices. Whether you need translation assistance, homework help or simply want to find out more about an image that’s caught your eye on social media, our smartphones have become our go-to source for searching for this information. As a human-centric technology brand, Honor is committed to bringing the benefits of AI to all. Thanks to our close industry collaboration with Google and by introducing this feature to not one, but two of our popular smartphone lines, it’s now possible to unlock a world of information at your fingertips, offering a whole new level of convenience in people’s daily lives.
