Huawei Technologies will soon launch the latest iteration of its home-grown mobile operating system HarmonyOS Next, an executive reportedly said, boosting the telecommunications equipment giant’s bid to take on Google’s Android and Apple’s iOS in the domestic market.
Huawei will officially launch HarmonyOS Next at the end of this month, Chen Xinxin, general manager of HarmonyOS industry solutions, said on Saturday at the China International Fair For Trade In Service in Beijing, according to local media reports.
HarmonyOS Next has been dubbed the “pure blood” version of Harmony, as unlike earlier versions of the operating system it will no longer support Android-based applications.
The mobile platform’s latest iteration is “entirely independently developed and autonomous”, Chen reportedly said on Saturday.
Huawei did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Sunday.
