PRESS RELEASE

London, UK — September 27th, 2017 – Huawei Consumer Business Group has today announced the launch of its new Huawei Mobile Cloud, enabling consumers to backup and restore their data and phone settings wirelessly, synchronise and easily transfer data across Huawei mobile devices, as well as store and access files safely using Cloud Drive. Subscribed users to the Huawei Mobile Cloud will receive 5GB of free cloud storage.

From September onwards, the Huawei Mobile Cloud update will be gradually rolled out on the Huawei P10, P10 Plus, P10 lite and Nova 2, with other models to follow in due course. All photos and videos taken with the camera, screenshots and screen recordings can be automatically backed up to Cloud. Users can simply access them from their browser at cloud.huawei.com or from the Gallery App on their device.

Data can also be automatically synchronised across all Huawei mobile phones, so it’s quick and easy to access Contacts, Calendar, Wi-Fi and Notes using the Huawei ID. This data can also be managed through the Cloud Web Portal. At launch, Huawei Mobile Cloud will offer 5GB of free cloud storage and there will be the option to upgrade and purchase more storage plans from 2018 onwards.

All data is stored exclusively within the EU on European servers, in compliance with EU Data Protection and Privacy Laws. All the services have been designed with user privacy in mind and the Huawei Mobile Cloud Services are certified by CSA Star (ISO/IEC 27001). 

"The launch of Huawei Mobile Cloud highlights our commitment as a business to creating a more convenient mobile experience for our users, all the while assuring them that their data can easily be backed up and restored, as well as remaining secure,” commented Walter Ji, President of Huawei Western Europe’s Consumer Business. “All files and photos stay within EU servers and we have local Legal, Security and Privacy expert teams in EU, to give users complete peace of mind.”

Full Huawei Mobile Cloud feature support will be initially available at launch in Germany, Italy, France, Spain, UK, The Netherlands, Finland and Poland, with more countries to follow later. Updates for the Huawei P10 and P10 Plus will start rolling out on September 27th, followed by the P10 lite on September 28th, while the Nova 2 will receive Mobile Cloud on September 30th. Carrier launch schedules will vary.
