TL;DR

• HONOR has announced a Smart Game Update Feature for its devices in China.
• The new feature automatically detects and downloads updated game files overnight while your phone is charging.
• We really hope the Play Store gains a similar feature, as it would address a major pain point for many mobile gamers.

Mobile games have ballooned in size over the years, and it’s not uncommon to be greeted by large updates if you haven’t opened a game in a while. This isn’t great, as you’re forced to wait a while before starting a play session. Fortunately, one mobile manufacturer has come up with a smart solution, and I really hope the Google Play Store follows suit.

HONOR has announced (h/t: IT Home) that it now offers a so-called Smart Game Update Feature to make mobile game updates less of a chore.
