Much has been said that the United States has done everything to destroy Huawei and that the company is having a hard time. But, despite all the circumstances, the company is working and is on the verge of starting to transfer HarmonyOS to its devices. The operating system is based on the open source Android platform, and this will allow Google services and Android applications to run on these devices in the future.
The fact that HarmonyOS is still based on Android will allow it to be installed on third-party products. One of the enthusiasts has already managed to download HarmonyOS 2.0 on a Xiaomi smartphone with the MIUI user interface. Although it is not worth talking about a full installation of the operating system from Huawei. In the video, he did not show the operation of the operating system, limiting himself to demonstrating the moment the smartphone was launched.
Interestingly, when the smartphone is turned on, the Xiaomi and MIUI logos appear on the screen, as well as the inscription Powered by HarmonyOS. The creator of the video chose not to show the lock screen or desktop after turning it on. It's fundamentally confusing, and we might as well have only been shown a drawn animation. It is quite possible that the developer only intended to show what, at will; HarmonyOS can run on any Android smartphone.
If smartphone manufacturers in China find it necessary and beneficial to install HarmonyOS on their devices in the domestic market; then Google risks losing its audience in that country.
The Huawei Watch 3 smartwatch running HarmonyOS will arrive this month
Chinese sources revealed information about some features of the Huawei Watch 3 smartwatch; which the Chinese giant is preparing for release. The gadget will debut next month.
According to new information, the device will receive support for eSIM technology (built-in electronic SIM card). This means that owners will be able to make calls over mobile networks; as well as connect to the Internet wherever a cellular connection is available.
The HarmonyOS operating system with a special user interface will be used as a software platform on the Huawei Watch 3. A wide range of third-party applications will be available to owners.
Compared to the previous model, changes will affect a set of sports modes, in addition, additional intelligent functions will appear. It can be assumed that the gadget will be able to register changes in the heart rate during the day and estimate the level of oxygen in the blood.
