Huawei would not replace Android with Hongmeng OS on mobiles
Much is being speculated about Huawei in recent months after the United States government put it on a blacklist of Chinese companies with which it could not be traded. Thus, the possible withdrawal of Android as an operating system for their mobiles led to the idea of a platform of its own under the name Hongmeng OS, something that would not finally happen .
Basically the vice president of the firm, Catherine Chen, has publicly referred in the last day about the work of Huawei for the next generation of devices and has surprised by making it clear that Hongmeng OS is not a creation designed to work on Smartphones , for what the idea is to continue using Android .
Does Huawei put Hongmeng aside?: Huawei would not replace Android with Hongmeng OS on mobiles
The statements of this important Huawei directive are related to what was already mentioned last week by Liang Hua , another of the company’s leaders, who noted that “it has not yet been decided whether Hongmeng OS can be developed as an operating system for mobiles in the future ” . And it is that this platform is actually a low latency solution designed for smart home devices (IoT).
It is clear that the modifications regarding this problem that goes beyond the technology sector has also changed Huawei’s discourse, since a few months ago it seemed certain that Android would no longer be on its mobiles and now there is more probability that this blockade will not reach materialize and the Google platform can continue to be used , at least in the near future.
In this way, the first words of the company about its preparation for “the process of launching a potential replacement” in relation to Android and that “Hongmeng was already being tested, mainly in China”, seems to be something that would be quickly discarded. Even weeks ago it was rumored about the next Huawei Mate 30 Lite with this factory installed platform.
You, do you think Huawei will continue to use Android or that it will eventually switch to its own operating system?
