Huawei HongMeng OS Could Be 60% Faster Than Android

Anil - Jul 16, 2019

As suggested by Huawei CEO Ren Zhengfei, the HongMeng OS could be fully replaceable to Google’s Android OS.

Even though the US government could somehow take off the ban on Huawei as early as what most of us have expected, but the Chinese phone-making giant seems to keep up with its own operating system called HongMeng. As reported, the HongMeng OS could be fully replaceable to Google’s Android OS.

Ren Zhengfei – CEO and Founder of Huawei – did give a talk with Le Point that says his company’s homegrown HongMeng OS could be 60% faster than Android - the world's most popular operating system for smartphone up to now.

Huawei OS — Huawei has still lacked an alternative app store.

However, Ren Zhengfei also confirmed that Huawei currently has a shortage of an app store that could be an alternative to Google Play for Android or App Store for iOS, but there will be one in the future as a result.

According to some sources leaked by Bloomberg previously, the Chinese giant was said to plan to boast 50 million users in Europe using its app store by the end of 2018. The statement was made shortly after Huawei had been listed to the Department of Commerce’s blacklist, meaning that no US firms would be able to sell technology to Huawei.

The urgent move is not only making an Android alternative but also creating alternatives to major apps like Gmail or YouTube. In short, those products will have to meet the needs of both Chinese users and users in global markets as well.

Huawei Feature 2 — Back in March, Huawei first talked up this “Plan B” for replacing Android.

As a matter of fact, the Linux-based HongMeng OS sounds a bit mysterious of some sort, but it might be the only choice at present until the company officially has the ban lifted. Back in March, Huawei first talked up this “Plan B” for replacing Android by its own OS for all smartphone lineups, amid a lot of trade tensions taking place between two superpowers.
