Many speculations and rumors have been around Huawei in recent months , and it is that after the government problems between the United States and China, it is complicating the future of the Asian technology giant. Now, new reports indicate that Hongmeng OS itself is being tested on Smartphones.

Although it was the company itself who assured that they were analyzing new platforms if they could not continue using Android as the OS for their mobiles of the future , a few weeks ago the opposite was declared , emphasizing that their intention is still to be able to use the Google platform and that Hongmeng OS is not even adapted to run phones. What is the reality?

Huawei in tests on Hongmeng OS: Huawei tests a mobile with Hongmeng OS and is it launched this year?

Huawei Hongmeng OS would already be in the testing phase

According to what was recently published by the Chinese media Global Times , Huawei is conducting the first tests of a future smartphone with its own operating system, Hongmeng OS , and is even encouraged to report that the intention is to launch it publicly in stores before of the end of the current year.

On the other hand, they have not wanted to specify which are the information sources that this news network has accessed but complements it with a price that would be around 2,000 yuan, which at the current exchange rate leaves it at approximately $ 288 . Thus, if true, your first proposal would be a mid-range Smartphone.

Finally, Huawei has made it clear that Hongmeng OS is an original platform for the “Internet of Things (IoT)” segment and that it will soon debut in the line of Honor Smart TVs. Its CEO also assured that this operating system is part of the company’s long-term plans but that for now they continue to prefer Android for mobile phones .

With regard to the phone business, Huawei has achieved 23% growth in profits in the first half of 2019, mainly through local mobile consumption , as well as an increase in the distribution of units of 31% in relation to the same period last year. It is clear that this success would be significantly reduced if Android had to be put aside.
