After surviving the trade vetoes imposed – and still being imposed – by the United States, Huawei is making a comeback, which represents a technological hope for China. At the hardware level, they have overcome this problem thanks to their partner SMIC and old machines with which to continue manufacturing their Kirin chips, processors that caused some controversy a few months ago. Also in the field of software suffered from restrictions: without Google, Huawei was forgotten by Western users.
Huawei smartphones used to run Android – they still do in their global versions, of course, without Google services – but HarmonyOS came along to change the operating system scene. It started from the platform we all use and later evolved into HarmonyOS Next, which removes all Android components. It got certified as a 100% clean development system and now as Performance Test
This is how the new version of HarmonyOS evolves without Android
One of the most difficult tasks that awaits Huawei’s system is to attract applications to its ecosystem. The Huawei AppGallery is the native repository of HarmonyOS, and in its home country they have already convinced thousands of developers; Yesterday we learned that its new focus is video games.
HarmonyOS Next’s success will depend mainly on appsit’s not for nothing that it lost support for Android APKs. Maybe in China they can cover most of the essential apps, but if they intend to enter the international market, they will have a harder time.
In any case, due to its forced separation from Google’s operating system, it had to go through a rather intense stage of internal changes. Some changes that should impact the performance of the platform itself and in this sense, Huawei has always boasted about its speed compared to its competitors..
In fact, during the certification of HarmonyOS Next, the president of the Chinese firm’s software assured that the kernel is a 10.7% faster
The short clip uses one of the Previous versions for HarmonyOS Next developers, distributed by Huawei smartphones in China. Specifically, this is the case of the Huawei Mate 60 Pro, the controversial terminal we talked about earlier.
Although the processor of this device fell during synthetic performance tests, in practice the lack of raw power is not appreciated. As can be seen in the video, they opened 24 applications one after the other, and at no time is there any jolt or gap
Ice Universe, the well-known Samsung leaker, took the opportunity to give his opinion. Comment that HarmonyOS Next is the operating system more fluid Today, despite the fact that this type of testing does not reflect the reality of daily use:
What’s the point of testing like this? We don’t use cell phones like that.
Today I’m going to give these people a clear answer. It’s called a “mastery stress test,” which is the same testing logic as the Mark Wild Life 3D extreme stress test.
Leaving aside the debate about the usefulness of this test, the truth is that HarmonyOS Next seems to work very well, even in less technically efficient equipment. Let’s remember that the Kirin 9000S does not exceed in raw power the previous Kirin 9000 that arrived on the market four years ago. Does this mean that Huawei’s system is the smoothest? We’ll see if it finally leaves its native fiefdom.
