Huawei announces Harmony OS as its potential Android replacement

Posted August 9, 2019 | Mobile | News


After years of development and months of rumors, today Huawei has revealed a custom operating system called ‘Harmony OS’ at its annual developer conference in China.

The new platform, which was previously referred to as Hongmeng OS, is “the first microkernel-based distributed OS for all scenarios,” according to CEO Richard Yu. Harmony OS can be used across a wide range of devices including smart speakers, automobiles, computers, smartwatches, wireless earbuds, and, of course, smartphones and tablets. To make this happen, the company has ensured it can work with RAM sizes ranging from mere kilobytes to hundreds of gigabytes.

Harmony OS will also support a wide range of custom apps. Additionally, HTML5, Linux, and even Android apps “will all be able to run on our OS in the future.” At this stage, however, it remains to be seen if the platform will have access to Google’s services.

Huawei’s CEO reiterated the company’s commitment to Google’s Android platform and their wish to continue using it internationally. However, if it “cannot use Android in the future,” the Chinese giant will take the necessary steps to “immediately switch to Harmony OS.”

As expected, the first Harmony OS-powered device will be the Honor Vision TV that will go on sale in China tomorrow.
