I hope that you are not just saying it. I have a Huawei nova 9 and some of the apps that I want to use completely sucks, like the Jlab app. Or where APKPure has taken away the ability to listen to the bible on the bible app but the play button is still there.
I'd love to get Huawei's OS in central Europe. As a developer, I rage quit Android just a few weeks ago, after years of work put into it, switched to iOS 18, but there's paywalls and lockdowns everywhere, "get a macbook, get a developer subscription, enroll/subscribe/pay/etc, sell your soul, and MAYBE we'll let you develop something". I just want to develop cool stuff for myself. If Huawei has a better dev experience, I'm willing to buy and ship it from China, and even learn Chinese.
Their focus is not on the video games but AI and for that they don't need most performant chips. Their prefer more to have control over their chips than having highest benchmark scores. Also their Pixel phones with Tensor chips provide highest security on Android OS.
Hello, pixel 4a 5g user here. Phone has serious frame drop issues, hiccups and is not smooth in various areas. My father has an iPhone 11, which is half a year older in use and the release of the phone was about a year earlier. The smoothness is just insane. In fact, it is smoother than newer a series pixels. We pixel users should stop giving Google a pass. Btw, instead of saying "our new phone will get 7 years of updates", they should have said our seven year old phone will also get the latest update.
@@D.u.d.e.rI stopped caring about games when my Pixel 6 (more powerful than my older OP7) demonstrated an inability to play anything because of incredible overheating and absurd thermal throttling. It still sometimes destroys itself because it randomly gets too hot. I have access to 2 Pixel 6, 4 Pixel 6a, 2 Pixel 7a and a Pixel 8 Pro. They all share the randomly overheating problem. It's a Google cannot design phones that cool properly problem together with a Samsung Foundries sucks ass.
Huawei, back in the days with no ban, was the best phone manufacturer for me. I still have a functioning P9 and a P20 pro, no service involved, no battery swaped, no screen replacement. In his prime P20 pro had one of the best battery usage (in the same time being one of the thinest phone on the market) , one of the best camera , best and smoothest android interface of the world. Too bad gready americans imposed the ban on them, otherwise Huawei would have been the best in the world these days.
@@jameschalkwig787 Android is not banned on Huaweis, they still use android in Europe and you can install GMS services through microG project :) google it
But all their chip are still using the 7nm architecture from 2022 while the west have leaped two full generation to 2nm. They come out with cool features and all but their performance is kind of capped at this point at 2022 level.
@@Drifter18903 try check Harmony OS's device optimization. Look at video comparison between Huawei Mate 60 pro vs ip 16 pro max. Even with chip 7nm , they are inevitable .
Got the Beta of HarmonyOS Next (5) on my Mate 60 Pro and can confirm way more fluid system, battery life and camera performance. This OS is a true uograde in many ways. Just the app support for the west is lacking completely for now
Western countries that have resisted strong-arming by the US to ban Huawei will initially find themselves unable or unwilling to use Chinese apps in the Huawei ecosystem. However, Harmony OS will receive widespread adoption in China. Once that happens, app makers from the West will clamor to get in on the big, new market. It'll be a new gold rush. They'll port their apps to sell to this market.
I hope HarmonyOS becomes IoT OS, at least for industrial application. If it just mimics what Android is, then not much hope for future. Imagine we can connect cars, house, phone... into one unique ecosystem...
The only way for Harmony OS to work is for Oppo, Xiaomi etc. to be forced to use Harmony OS. Initially in China, later wordwide. But I am not sure they would want, Huawei is their direct competitor.
Don’t worry, as long as Huawei's HarmonyOS maintains its technological edge and iOS and Android don’t redesign their architectures in the short term, When HarmonyOS demonstrates its advantages in the era of the Internet of Everything, more developers will naturally switch to HarmonyOS in the future. For now, focusing on the Chinese market is enough.
It's matter of time, the US is going to keep imposing embargo against China to try to stop their development, and China has enough people living there to use their own OS.
Obviously many people don't know Huawei's HarmonyOS Next (Harmony OS 5) is based off OpenHarmony OS, which is donated by Huawei to open source society.
In fact, Harmony OS has an open source system called Open Harmony, which all developers can develop on their own, just like the relationship between AOSP and Android.
The verge of death? Are you serious? You underestimate the Huawei size. They're not just a smartphone manufacturer. A completely different level compared to Nokia, Ericsson or even Apple. Huawei owns networking equipment manufacturing, they make solutions on mining infrastructure, ship docking infrastructure, forestry infrastructure, autodriving car software and hardware, wearable, IoTs, smarthomes, even few medical softwares, and more. I will not surprised a one day, unexpectedly, just randomly out of nowhere Huawei just make a chip making branch directly competing with SMIC or even TSMC. Huawei is too big, even that famous China's government can't fully contain them. No one can expect their move. Yesterday they make a mobile cellular phone's infrastructure and today they're in an automobil industry and cargo shipping industry, you'll be blown away if suddenly tomorrow you just woke up, reading the tech news and out of nowhere Huawei make their own nuclear reactor on the moon.
They're Samsung of China with how many industries they got their hands in, I wish Nokia+Microsoft never gave up on their smartphones and windows phone or symbian/meego that was ahead of time..
They are nothing in phone devices. They stay relevant because CCP forces government employees and other under its influence to buy their crap. Don't get me wrong, Chinese individuals and small companies are making exceptional innovative products, but not CCP's shell companies.
Death from the smartphone market, and possibly high-end retail electronics as whole. Much like how IBM is still very much around, but consumers aren’t buying IBM branded gadgets anymore.
Huawei releasing an entire os is a very bold move against Google and Android, but having to use another langage for the apps and not use the Linux kernel maybe goes a little bit too far.
At least take the linux kernel and modify it to suite your needs. I've got no idea why they thought it would be cool for developers to re-program their app just for them. Well, it might work, but personally I think it'll be hard to push many developers into doing that.
most mobile app are based on java, flutter, swift, or web based. as long the source code can be compiled to the new OS (except swift probably), that would be fine.
@@YSKWatch those apps either rely on android apis or only expect android and ios apis, which means that devs would have to put in serious work into supporting this niche os that is not available outside of china

@@oluwatayo.xDo you really need the most powerful chip in your phone though? if it integrates well with Android And is really power efficient, I think that's what most people they get a pixel want
Yh like billions is crazy lol and also even if that was the case ,most apps are not apps that people download anyway ,there are so many shit apps that people don’t actually download,the number of apps that people download are probably not even a million.
I look it up and the one that ever got released in playstore is around 10m. But because not all apps is on playstore, and its impossible to count the one that not on there. I'll say it might be around 11m to 15m(take this with grain of salt) unique functional apps ever made out there.
that e-ink after fold made me think, "Why don't Samsung put e-ink display on the front while using AMOLED on the big screen?" I can see that it is a big way to increase its battery life and taking advantage of e-ink under the sun.
that would be cool but the problem is foldables are already so niche. imagine how much further niche it would be... You would be ordering such a small amount of parts. That's the problem. you would have very little benefit of economies of scale because it's not like you're going to be able to actively use the front e ink screens for much else. But maybe someday foldable's ever command a higher percentage of the market share

@@JCSY1 Not the point. Not everyone in every country uses the same apps. That's why you need a bigger selection of apps. Frankly speaking nobody cares about what apps you use, they care about the apps THEY use. If what you said was true Windows phone wouldn't have flopped. But it did
This is a BS take. Nobody needs that many apps, just like 10 or 20. But only about 5 of those 10 or 20 are mostly the same across all users, the other 5 or 15 are totally different for everybody. For example, I need D&D Beyond to play D&D with friends and it just got borked on my Huawei tablet. I still have it on my Google Pixel, and the site works fine from my PCs both on my Windows desktop and on my Linux laptop, but I do really need it on the tablet because it's the most convenient way of using it while at the table. Do I need 1 billion apps? No. Do I need some pretty specific apps? Yes. Does anybody need 1 billion apps? No. Does the average user need some overly specific niche app? Yes. Not to mention Banks, Public Administration, Museums, Universities all require apps nowadays, and while some of them might add a Huawei version of the app I don't see all of them do it. Are you going to choose your bank based on which OS they support or are you going to choose which phone you don't get based on which OS your fundamental unavoidable application supports?

nope, harmony next is still using arkts (a modified version of Typescript) as its main application layer developing language, Cangjie language is another story, it would be used to replace C++ in framework layer development, it's still in developing, and it still need at least two years to work.
you are right. I misheard the "arkts" as "argts" and searched for a thing that's doesn't exists. I also heard "native" what made me think "Android NDK" and that Cangjie is C++ replacement.
@@mtxn You are welcome, I've developed applications for Harmony next since sept of 2023, under the beta testing program, started from api9 then api11 and now api12, currently arkts and arkui framework has been quite workable, enough for developing any kind of applications at least, only the native part still has many problem. And I join cangjie inner testing program in two monthes ago, but honestly it is still not stable, need at least two years I guess.Currently, the arkui framework is still programmed by C++, and huawei is planning to push community developers to remake it by cangjie.
TSMC's latest node is not longer a proper node shrink, don't forget. 3n is not nanometer anymore - Huawei doesn't need newer than 2 generations because software optimizations will yield greater benefit than tinier hardware can.
First the US bans Chinese companies in using Android with Google Play Services forcing them to create their own OS and now Russian Linux maintainers were removed. Hopefully we can get an alternative desktop OS that is free from all the political BS.
I think people tend to forget that Windows phone died mostly because Microsoft didn't push for it hard enough. They like to pretend that Microsoft literally did everything but still failed ( as a point of reference, Microsoft spent less than 15 billion dollars on Windows phone. While they spent 75 billion to buy Activision). I would be able really interested to know why they didn't have faith in their own product.

2:30 Huawei is one of the biggest phone brands here in South Africa, and southern Africa is projected to have about 1 billion people by 2050 so in the long run Huawei will really become a global power house I'm sure
If you think having South Africa as region is going propel Huawei to global power house, then you're clueless about economics. It's not about how many people a region has, it is about the overall purchasing power of that region. Even with 1 Billion people, it means nothing if majority of those people are living in poverty. Look at India. They are the most populous country in the WORLD. But yet, capturing the Indian market means very little to a business because majority of that country is living in poverty.

I can't really see Huawei pulling this off, except maybe within China. The lack of support for APK files is a major dealbreaker, and I have serious doubts about their ability to keep up with maintaining an OS like this, if at all. Watch it will be released, be buggy and have no apps.
There are many countries sanctioned by the US who share the same ambitions with China, to be free of any US-controlled software and hardware, like Iran, Syria and others. I think those countries will be big market for HarmonyOS Next.
well huawei said 99.9% of consumer apps for daily needs in china are already developed. and more apps are on the way. i feel like its gonna take like two years for it to release in global market. they are looking to gain more recognition outside china in the meantime. the partially android version of harmony os has already reached 1 billion devices so i think they can pull it off

Okay, but unless other manufacturers adapts HarmonyOS or started creating their own OSes, that is when we call it a real threat to Android. But as for now, only Huawei uses HarmonyOS. If every manufacturers start to create their own OSes, that will be a real headache to developers and most probably they will just stick with developing apps for Android and iOS.

Huawei hasn’t done anything. We have to see before we can take it for granted. This company once said that they developed a new OS from the ground up and it just ended up being Android but without any reference to Android. They also claimed they developed a 7nm chip that ended up being like a 14nm chip, so I wouldn’t take anything they say for granted
You don't. Their 7nm chip has already been analysed indepth and confirmed it is, by TechInsight , an authoritative information and analysis platform for the semiconductor industry, based in Ottawa Canada. You can also wait for their Mate 70 series to be released in November, to see what's inside.
The latest version of HarmonyOS NEXT has completely dropped android kernel. It was a transitioning period for app developers to port their app to non-android environment.

They provide a project converter which converts your android project files and source codes to Harmony OS code. It may not be 100% accurate and need some manual changes to the code but at least 90% of the jobs have been done automatically.
I actually did a survey for the Snapdragon naming scheme which had me rate names like Max, Elite or Pro. Companies really don't know what they're doing.

Huawei is most likely pursuing the Apple strategy of having a locked OS. And I bet they will succeed because they are collaborating with Shenzhen local government to build apps that are native to the OS.

I don’t think it will ever become a global competitor to iOS and Android. The app gap is simply too big. They might be able to conquer mainland Taiwan, but it will be difficult to become a real competitor outside of it
Most people only use a few dozen apps at most, and a lot of Chinese companies that will build for HarmonyOS also sell services outside China (think companion apps for smart home devices, TikTok, EV companion apps, etc.). I think they will need to pour a lot of money into it, basically pay devs to get on board, but they do have a chance. Most people don't care about the "millions of apps" on iOS/Android.
developer will port their apps to as many OS as possible. apps will not became a problem. if an OS have more than 500 million user, all developer will jumping in.
@@RarelyCorrectNo, they don’t. Had they used a Linux kernel, still probably no but less so. Had they open sourced it, giving non-Chinese developers some ability to influence decisions around things like feature updates and breaking changes and the like, then maybe (probably not but maybe). As it stands, developing for Harmony OS is guaranteed to be a living nightmare. You’d be dealing with constant breaking changes from bug fixes made necessary by the novel kernel. Stability issues will be a constant problem. You’ll spend a bunch of time attempting to fix stability issues, more than half of which will turn out to be beyond your control as they’ll stem from some problem with the kernel. You’ll never be sure if a bug is on your end or theirs. Half the fixes you make will end up breaking your app on the next update as they fix kernel bugs. Due to the “super app” phenomenon in China, Harmony maintainers will focus on catering to the needs of a (relative) handful of big app developers. This will lead to a development ecosystem poorly suited to the needs of developers outside of China & that goes triple for small, non-Chinese devs. As a developer, you’re expected to deal with all of this and make the switch for what? So your app can be available on a platform no one in your country uses? The future possibility of sales to ppl who accidentally buy a harmony OS device thinking it’s like android, who buy your app before they realize their mistake & return it in exchange for a device that has “their apps?” You’re mistaken. You clearly don’t know enough about this to warrant an opinion. There have been plenty of competitors to android & iOS who thought just as you do. They made sure their alternative OS had access to those few dozen core apps. Not one of them succeeded. When asked why they switched back to iOS or android rather than buying another device running the alternative OS, wanna know customers’ number one cited reason? Lack of available apps. It’s been tried, many times. It won’t work outside of China.

I'd love to get Huawei's OS in central Europe. As a developer, I rage quit Android just a few weeks ago, after years of work put into it, switched to iOS 18, but there's paywalls and lockdowns everywhere, "get a macbook, get a developer subscription, enroll/subscribe/pay/etc, sell your soul, and MAYBE we'll let you develop something". I just want to develop cool stuff for myself. If Huawei has a better dev experience, I'm willing to buy and ship it from China, and even learn Chinese.
Good luck with that lol
Linux mobile app development is also an option!
Why did you rage quit?
its not worth learning chinese over a phone os

I wonder if Oniro project is working or not. Since it's shares the OpenHarmony codes, it supposedly to kind of work with HarmonyOS.
Western countries that have resisted strong-arming by the US to ban Huawei will initially find themselves unable or unwilling to use Chinese apps in the Huawei ecosystem. However, Harmony OS will receive widespread adoption in China. Once that happens, app makers from the West will clamor to get in on the big, new market. It'll be a new gold rush. They'll port their apps to sell to this market.
I saw some sort of AI assistant in the video. What's that about?
I hope HarmonyOS becomes IoT OS, at least for industrial application. If it just mimics what Android is, then not much hope for future. Imagine we can connect cars, house, phone... into one unique ecosystem...
The only way for Harmony OS to work is for Oppo, Xiaomi etc. to be forced to use Harmony OS. Initially in China, later wordwide. But I am not sure they would want, Huawei is their direct competitor.
I thought all Chinese 🇨🇳 brands were pooling together to create a unified OS? Those were the headlines last year or earlier
@@alice_agogothere were proposals made for a china wide OS but it didn't go beyond that
Don’t worry, as long as Huawei's HarmonyOS maintains its technological edge and iOS and Android don’t redesign their architectures in the short term, When HarmonyOS demonstrates its advantages in the era of the Internet of Everything, more developers will naturally switch to HarmonyOS in the future. For now, focusing on the Chinese market is enough.
It's matter of time, the US is going to keep imposing embargo against China to try to stop their development, and China has enough people living there to use their own OS.

@michatroschka this isn't linux kernel, HUAWEI made their own kernel called microkernel
In fact, Harmony OS has an open source system called Open Harmony, which all developers can develop on their own, just like the relationship between AOSP and Android.
The verge of death? Are you serious? You underestimate the Huawei size. They're not just a smartphone manufacturer. A completely different level compared to Nokia, Ericsson or even Apple. Huawei owns networking equipment manufacturing, they make solutions on mining infrastructure, ship docking infrastructure, forestry infrastructure, autodriving car software and hardware, wearable, IoTs, smarthomes, even few medical softwares, and more. I will not surprised a one day, unexpectedly, just randomly out of nowhere Huawei just make a chip making branch directly competing with SMIC or even TSMC. Huawei is too big, even that famous China's government can't fully contain them. No one can expect their move. Yesterday they make a mobile cellular phone's infrastructure and today they're in an automobil industry and cargo shipping industry, you'll be blown away if suddenly tomorrow you just woke up, reading the tech news and out of nowhere Huawei make their own nuclear reactor on the moon.
They're Samsung of China with how many industries they got their hands in, I wish Nokia+Microsoft never gave up on their smartphones and windows phone or symbian/meego that was ahead of time..
They are nothing in phone devices. They stay relevant because CCP forces government employees and other under its influence to buy their crap. Don't get me wrong, Chinese individuals and small companies are making exceptional innovative products, but not CCP's shell companies.
Death from the smartphone market, and possibly high-end retail electronics as whole. Much like how IBM is still very much around, but consumers aren’t buying IBM branded gadgets anymore.
@@Raderade1-pt3om That's what focusing on short term ROI makes you do and why the US is condemned to fall to China

Huawei releasing an entire os is a very bold move against Google and Android, but having to use another langage for the apps and not use the Linux kernel maybe goes a little bit too far.
At least take the linux kernel and modify it to suite your needs. I've got no idea why they thought it would be cool for developers to re-program their app just for them. Well, it might work, but personally I think it'll be hard to push many developers into doing that.
most mobile app are based on java, flutter, swift, or web based. as long the source code can be compiled to the new OS (except swift probably), that would be fine.

This is a BS take. Nobody needs that many apps, just like 10 or 20. But only about 5 of those 10 or 20 are mostly the same across all users, the other 5 or 15 are totally different for everybody.

They provide a project converter which converts your android project files and source codes to Harmony OS code. It may not be 100% accurate and need some manual changes to the code but at least 90% of the jobs have been done automatically.
I actually did a survey for the Snapdragon naming scheme which had me rate names like Max, Elite or Pro.
Companies really don't know what they're doing.
They made a OS from scratch and still chose to copy Apple's design language 🤦
In order to make new users get started better
Next step of china to ban apple so they pulling ppl from ios to Chinese rom by giving ios like user experience and feel
@@小主-m5dMakes whole sense
Just a question. Why are some countries using floppy disk? Which OS is supporting that?
You can still drive floppy drive just fine even on modern pc os. .
this has more problem as countries outside china would not trust it even more
Americans 😂 Do you know that a part from Smart phones EU companies still makes business with Huawei unlike in the US? And this follows the same organisation as Android. OpenHarmony is the base Open Source OS and HarmonyOS contains some closed source apps and services by Huawei. Right now it is still a domestic launch but they are preparing for International launch (EU and Asia) by 2025
What a proper smartphone and mobile OS India have been made?
@@afuyan Why is India being brought into this conversation? Just because I’m from India doesn’t make that a valid comeback. It’s widely recognized that technology from China faces trust issues globally, and that’s the real point here. Whether India is developed or developing isn’t relevant to this discussion.”
I am not American I am not American, but I still wouldn’t trust a mobile OS from China. Let the EU do what it wants; it’s already a satellite state of the US, and if it chooses to become one for China now, so be it. I also have my doubts about the US and wish my country had its own OS, but I would still never trust China over the US.
@@afuyan China has not either, the Harmony OS is a clone of a Android.
Which instructions set does Harmony OS use?
HarmonyOS is technically flexible and, in theory, could support other ISAs, like x86 or RISC-V, if needed. At the moment primarily support in ISA
Given how toxic play store and App Store have become to the developers, I welcome these new overlords. Hopefully these guys will be benevolent.
hate to give the bad news, its not an android competitor. its legitimately just an inferior version of android with a bunch of functionality removed. from what i been reading into, harmony OS is an absolute joke. its still just basic android, with a shiny new skin and almost everything stripped out of it. meaning you cant even install 3rd party apps, as they remove the apk installing functionality. only thing you can install is what they provide on there very limited store, and thats going to be even more limited considering that there removing the play store and everything to do with google. idk why people are so hype for this. its not what you think it is.

I strongly doubt that Arm will be granted an injunction against Qualcomm selling their chips.
It would only be a competition if it was developed by anyone, not from china.

They are not competing with the west bro😂
There are a lot of countries outside US dummy
Serious information, thanks mate for running down all the latest tech releases 🙏Keep up the good work!
Yes, an OS with a CCP backdoor must be better that Google's og Apple's...
better than a cia backdoor if you don't live in china
depend on which side you prefer to have your data.
Looks at these westerners. They can’t even get the abbreviation right. Looks like Americans are not born with much brain cells. They follow the same western narrative.
What can CCP do with your data? And what can US do with your data? Think carefully, who's nearer to you, who can actually harm you with your data.
Bro I can’t install WhatsApp on my P50 pro. Also can’t install other apps like my bank apps , TH-cam, G mail. It’s the global version so why no apps like these yet?
My dream is someday Huawei make this opensource and it kills googles monopoly over AOSP that every other vendors migrating into HOSP
C'est déjà le cas, une fois que son marché intérieur aura opté pour ce système, les constructeurs comme xiaomi, honor, oppo, vivo, oneplus qui représentent aumoins 70% de fabricants mondiaux mais qui sont chinois, proposeront aussi leurs systèmes sur Openharmony de Huawei et les sanctions américaines vont pleuvoir comme un torrent sur ces entreprises et ça sera le début de la fin du monopole USA
Already the case
@@antimotivation10only a 🧠 ⚰️ person would buy 🇺🇲 brands Apple 🍎 Tesla Starbucks Google Microsoft Ford 🤮
Huawei is most likely pursuing the Apple strategy of having a locked OS. And I bet they will succeed because they are collaborating with Shenzhen local government to build apps that are native to the OS. They only need to invest billions (which they have) to create apps that are essential to the normal functioning of the phone. As time goes on, more developers will get on their bus.

It is predicted that European and American countries will not use Huawei phones in the future, but more and more people in BRICS countries will use Huawei phones. The biggest obstacle for Huawei to become a super giant is time.
What language is Harmony OS using? Unix, Linux, DOS, what? Do you know?
They are using microkernel architecture derived from LiteOS. Mainly using java language.
@@leezhieng Thank you. Isn’t android also Java but with a Linux kernel? If so, wouldn’t that make harmony is just another type of android?
For your note, west is not "the world" but a part of the world.

Why does Xiaomi keeps going thrown under the bar?....You mentioned it....but you didn't even show any thing about it despite them for me being the most professional android operating system par with Samsung...tech reviewers keep underrating this phone
HarmonyOS' limited amount of apps compared to Android or iOS poses a challenge, but most normal people (i.e. non-tech nerds) don't even understand what an operating system is. They wouldn't notice if an app on their phone is native, sideloaded, emulated, a web app, etc. Huawei can just make it look like everything on their store is an app, but quietly plug the gaps with emulation or web apps.
Banking apps is the barrier they will not jump over
@@phrmko they just need alipay and WeChat to work and most people in china won't even notice
@@phrmko Exactly. Windows Phone had the same problem. If Microsoft had that problem Huawei definitely will. My former bank in the UK didn't even have Google Pay support until 2020, only Apple Pay. And most banks still have no Samsung Pay support. Huawei won't get banking apps outside of China if they expand to Europe.

Its gonna take YEARS to make it usable and stable since developers have to optimize and make their apps compatible to a new OS.
Precisely. I wouldn't want to be an early adopter. If I was seriously considering it I'd wait a couple years to check in on it.
I mean you are right about that ,but early adopters tend to help with the improvement of the OS ,it is through the feedbacks that they can improve the OS .
The rush to develop new chips in smartphones is completely useless. Huawei just show us that.
In other videos I've noticed that Harmony OS is a complete mess.
US and China have all these giants and in the EU we have shit. We don't even have Only Fans anymore, they left with the UK.

90% of it is. At last it was the last time someone bothered to look at all the code
@@franklingoodwin*In house Kernel👀
@@real_rsaNoob13 that's why I said 90%. The rest in the kernel and whatever OS tweaks Huawei make. But it is still based on Android unlike TizenOS

Does release the dev kits?
I don’t think it will ever become a global competitor to iOS and Android. The app gap is simply too big. They might be able to conquer mainland Taiwan, but it will be difficult to become a real competitor outside of it
It’s not going to be a global competitor. Since they’re already sanctioned globally
Most people only use a few dozen apps at most, and a lot of Chinese companies that will build for HarmonyOS also sell services outside China (think companion apps for smart home devices, TikTok, EV companion apps, etc.). I think they will need to pour a lot of money into it, basically pay devs to get on board, but they do have a chance. Most people don't care about the "millions of apps" on iOS/Android.
developer will port their apps to as many OS as possible. apps will not became a problem. if an OS have more than 500 million user, all developer will jumping in.
As I replied to in another thread, unless the Core is Open Sourced, then I would NEVER install it. The CCP put all their spyware in the Core.
@@RarelyCorrectNo, they don’t. Had they used a Linux kernel, still probably no but less so. Had they open sourced it, giving non-Chinese developers some ability to influence decisions around things like feature updates and breaking changes and the like, then maybe (probably not but maybe). As it stands, developing for Harmony OS is guaranteed to be a living nightmare. You’d be dealing with constant breaking changes from bug fixes made necessary by the novel kernel. Stability issues will be a constant problem. You’ll spend a bunch of time attempting to fix stability issues, more than half of which will turn out to be beyond your control as they’ll stem from some problem with the kernel. You’ll never be sure if a bug is on your end or theirs. Half the fixes you make will end up breaking your app on the next update as they fix kernel bugs. Due to the “super app” phenomenon in China, Harmony maintainers will focus on catering to the needs of a (relative) handful of big app developers. This will lead to a development ecosystem poorly suited to the needs of developers outside of China & that goes triple for small, non-Chinese devs. As a developer, you’re expected to deal with all of this and make the switch for what? So your app can be available on a platform no one in your country uses? The future possibility of sales to ppl who accidentally buy a harmony OS device thinking it’s like android, who buy your app before they realize their mistake & return it in exchange for a device that has “their apps?”
You’re mistaken. You clearly don’t know enough about this to warrant an opinion. There have been plenty of competitors to android & iOS who thought just as you do. They made sure their alternative OS had access to those few dozen core apps. Not one of them succeeded. When asked why they switched back to iOS or android rather than buying another device running the alternative OS, wanna know customers’ number one cited reason? Lack of available apps. It’s been tried, many times. It won’t work outside of China.
Nuvia was created exactly with this in mind.
To create a "design" and be resealed to a big manufacturer/vendor .
I am not sure who cannot see this.
I've been a huawei user for the last 5 years. It's TIRING to update apps manually from apk websites; life without Google is possible but so annoying. I don't recommend Huawei to anybody, expecially for gaming
Which Huawei, the ones that run Emui 14.2 can have MicroG(GMS) installed
@@real_rsaNoob13It's not the same feeling as a phone with factory Google Services, over that you will get worse performance in games. Yeah, it's close to having the factory Google Services but it's still missing something
Well the simply by changing from Samsung to tmsc will bring a 10% boost in performance with 30% less power consumption. It was what happened to the snapdragon 8 gen 1 and 8 gen 1+ the chip was the same, the just changed manufacturer. Geekerwan have excellent videos about this theme comparing different SOCs
Wait so I have to recode my apps? Wtf, do u even comprehend the resource needed to develop a new ground up native app
You don't "have" to do anything. But if you want to reach HarmonyOS users, then coding an app for them would be the way to do it.
Tell me you are a moron without telling me.
implying app devs do any actual programming, whatever framework you use will either add an export or it wont
hopefully flutter will support harmony.
@@RarelyCorrect You are correct - if app developers do not want to support Huawei users, then they won't need to do anything. But this is a big win for China. Within 2/3 years, this OS will mature, and eat everything else in Chinese phone market. Google and Apple will definitely suck up their thumb. Most of the app developers will also start porting their app for Harmony OS.
google ditching samsung fabs is one of the best decisions they have made in a while
Another govt backdoored OS... Yeah I'll pass.
I'll stick to AOSP and Linux thank you.

@@FusionHyperion there are forks... like graphene os...
@@FusionHyperion AOSP is entirely open-source and free of Google services. It's different from the Android flavors shipped in smartphones from manufacturers. Also, you can disable and remove the trackers on most Android smartphones without loss of functionality.
Sure, then use OpenHarmony, which is likely open source in the future if isn’t already
tbh the harmonyos next kernel is probably open source
