Honor officially announced its integration with Deepseek, marking a step forward in mobile experiences powered by AI.
From February 8, the brand new Magic 7 pro and other honor phones executing Magicos 8.0 and more can upgrade their Yoyo assistant, allowing interaction with the Deepseek-R1 model. This will allow the company's native assistant to use the capabilities of the reasoning model to perform complex tasks.
To access it, honor users must simply slide up from the bottom of their phone to open the “AI AI” section and select “Deepseek-R1”.

However, there is a catch. The functionality will only be available in China, without any words at the time or if, it will never happen worldwide. We contacted the honor of clarifications.
Deepseek quickly acquired global recognition as a model of rivaling AI with Chatgpt and Google Gemini. Since the launch of his R1 model on January 20, he has sent shock waves in the AI industry, even influencing the world's stock markets.
Unlike its Western counterparts, Deepseek moved its IT operations in AI far from Nvidia equipment, now based on the fleas of Huawei for inference tasks. Although these chips do not correspond to Nvidia in training performance, they are effective in reducing costs while maintaining competitive AI capabilities.

As indicated above, while Deepseek is available worldwide, the integration of the head of honor remains exclusive to China for the moment.
This limitation can disappoint users of international honor wishing to undergo AI progress, but this also signals the growing self -sufficiency in AI technology.
