Huawei’s HarmonyOS has performed very well in China and iOS’s leadership is in danger
Apple is not going through its best moment in China. The blockade placed on Huawei in the United States has caused users in the Asian country to start betting on Huawei in such a way that HarmonyOS is getting closer to overtaking iOS in China. The reports are positive for Huawei and show both the users’ commitment to this software and their acceptance.
According to data presented by the media Fortune, HarmonyOS could take second place among mobile operating systems in China. The list would continue to be headed by Android, while iOS would move to third place.
HarmonyOS is ready to take second place from iOS in China
This situation may not seem important, but the reality is that The Asian market is one of the most important for any company. The loss of this second position would not sit well with Apple because it would mean fewer device sales.
Yes, the problem is how users’ commitment to HarmonyOS instead of iOS translates. Huawei seems to be recovering after some uncertain years and getting users to bet on their devices again, mainly for the high-end ones that compete with Apple’s iPhone.
HarmonyOS seems to be the future of Huawei, this software is based on Android. But this won’t be like this forever, in fact, Huawei intends to completely abandon the operating system created by Google and is already developing its own with which to say goodbye to all the limitations imposed by the Trump government.
This new operating system would maintain the same name as the current HarmonyOS, the changes being something internal. The road that Huawei has had to travel has been long, although it is not over yet. In numbers the company has indicated that 700 million devices use HarmonyOS.
Logically, the support of developers has been key to this transition with over 2.2 million third-party apps built to run on HarmonyOS. In addition, the company has returned to its old ways with 5G and this could be seen with the launch of the Mate 60 Pro.
There are still too many games left to play, but the numbers seem to indicate that Apple will not have it easy in China. The launch of the iPhone 15, weeks after the Mate 60 Pro, did not work as the Cupertino company expected and sales were lower in its first 17 days when compared to previous models.
