The operating system developed by Huawei and often referred to as HongMeng will be faster than Android and macOS, according to company founder Ren Zhengfei.
Zhengfei talked about its development operating system in an interview that he gave to a French magazine, explaining that HongMeng will support Android apps, but will be faster than platform of Google.
In addition, Zhengfei reported that there is already remarkable faster performance when comparing HongMeng with Apple's macOS, as the development team has focused specifically on achieving processing delays of less than 5ms.
Ο founder of Huawei claims that the upcoming HongMeng OS was designed from the ground up to be a universal platform. So it will be able to be installed not only on smartphones but also on other devices manufactured by the company, such as PCs and tablets. In other words, it can be a complete replacement for the Windows.
According to an order signed by US President Donald Trump in mid-May, Huawei no longer has the ability to use software and hardware developed by American companies, something that includes Android and Windows.
Huawei, of course, accelerated the development of its operating system after the ban. It looks like the upcoming HongMeng operating system could serve as an alternative for both, helping the company reduce its dependence on US companies and thus have an operating system that can be installed on any device.
HongMeng It is supposed to be released in 2019 starting from the Chinese market in the fall. The international release of the operating system will be completed next year.
Huawei will not abandon HongMeng's development efforts regardless of whether the situation with the United States changes.
So we should expect this operating system in Huawei smartphones, regardless of whether the company can use Android or not.
