In March, Huawei CEO Richard Yu said that the company has developed its own operating system for any circumstance. This OS is allegedly universal and should work on both smartphones and PCs. But then the name of the project was not known. Now information about him.
It is reported that the new operating system will be called Hongmeng, although it is not specified whether this is a code name or already a commercial name. It has been developed since 2012 and it is not yet clear when it will appear on the market. But given the tense situation between the US and China, this could happen in the coming months.
The source also said that the company is already using this operating system in its mobile devices. For its part, Huawei does not comment on this information, but the company anticipated the recent suspension of Google Android support last year when it was developing a replacement for the Android operating system.
So far, the technical details of the new OS have not been disclosed, so it is not clear whether it will work with Android desktop applications or not. In the second case, it will have huge problems that Windows Phone, Symbian and other systems had. After all, it is the lack of familiar software that most of all scares users away from new operating systems.
We also note that Huawei has previously tested Fuchsia OS on some of its smartphones. And although the results have not yet been made public, it is likely that this has improved the development of their system.
