You'd probably not like it after using Moto's UI.

EMUI offers some customization but at expense of performance and should be removed in favour of stock android.

Yeah, even infinix which recently started doing business in India started offering android one phones

Good manufacturers know what people like and want in a phone. Big manufactureres think they can just get away with selling sub par things at high prices.

Also, what is stopping Honor from replacing EMUI with android one permanently on all devices?

Chinese government. I think google is still not full available there. EMUI is ok for China market but international should have Android One.

The EMUI- Motion control features lets you control your device using simple gestures. It offers finer control over the device and extremely convenient way to operate the device. EMUI got four convenient motion control features- Flip, Pick up, Raise to ear and Tilt.

Nobody even bothers with these things after 2-3 weeks.

EMUI is a heavier customization by Honor and EMUI 9 will be based on android 9 pie.

In according to popular opinions, customers using Honor phones have no knowledge of Android version on their phones because all EMUI versions look same.

More and more manufactures are opting for a clean and stock android like experience but Honor has always been the opposite for EMUI.

Why is Honor EMUI different than Moto E2 android? I am a fan of Moto E2 android.

Because Motorola doesn't supplies the stock rom to Honor. Huawei supplies it to Honor and they want phones to resemble iphones as much as possible.

 

[SaiyanGoku]

Is there any EMUI theme which can change the settings layout and entire UI to look like stock android?

 

[Vignesh21]

The EMUI is great in its AI capabilities but that's not enough. I suggest features such as

1. More Stock Android Experience with a touch of EMUI
2. Better Night Mode and Camera Capabilities
3. Invert the phone to mute notifications
4. Faster Charging

• More Stock Android Experience with a touch of EMUI

NO! It should be pure android one without any EMUI elements. Additional functionality should be optional and user should have full control over the phone, including but not limited to bootloader access.

Is EMUI a launcher or a complete ROM?

 

[ankushv]

I guess just as how xaiomi is doing with ads in every app in their phones Huawei too want to monetise emui like xaiomi in the future .
Else all the Chinese oem would have stuck to stock android as I'm sure it would be the cheaper option for them .
Their end goal is to introduce ads deeply embedded in their os .
This is the principal reason for them to stick to their custom os skins .

It is a highly mutilated rom of android. If it was just a launcher, I wouldn't have complained at all.
