Mate 70: Huawei seals post-Android comeback by unveiling new phone with its own software
CNNEditor’s Note: Sign up for CNN’s Meanwhile in China newsletter which explores what you need to know about the country’s rise and how it impacts the world. Hong Kong CNN — Huawei has unveiled a new flagship phone boasting entirely homegrown software that aims to give users an alternative to Google’s Android or Apple’s iOS, in another effort by the Chinese tech giant to defend against possible further sanctions by Washington. “We have always been copied but never surpassed.” From next year, all of Huawei’s new phones and tablet devices would run on its own operating system, he added. The Mate 70 represents a “critical step” in Huawei’s software evolution, Lucas Zhong, research analyst at Canalys, told CNN. “When we migrate … tens of thousands of other apps from the Android ecosystem to HarmonyOS, our HarmonyOS will be truly built and truly become the world’s third mobile operating system in addition to Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android,” Eric Xu, the then-rotating chairman of Huawei, said in April, according to a post on the company’s official WeChat account.
