Huawei has developed a new operating system to be used in its desktops and laptops, and it could launch later this year.
After a rough few years in the U.S., Huawei has turned to developing its own operating system for PCs — and it may finally be arriving later this year.
Recommended Videos The rumor comes from a post on X that implies HarmonyOS Next may be launching later this year based on some imagery on Huawei’s developer website. The images show some different interfaces, including a Mac-like dock and widgets. The PC version currently in development — HarmonyOS Next — however, is said to be Android-free and uses its own microkernel instead of Linux or Unix. This means it doesn’t use Android code and can’t run Android apps, instead only supporting apps in its own native format.
It might be slightly problematic, however, considering China is planning for HarmonyOS to be its “national operating system” as it ends its reliance on U.S. technology. But, forgetting the politics for a second, HarmonyOS has been growing incredibly fast within China over the past few years. At the start of 2024, it officially overtook Apple’s iOS as the second bestselling mobile OS in China.
