Android and iOS completely dominate the mobile operating systems segment, but Huawei Technologies, the third largest mobile operating system manufacturer in the world, have been developing their alternative operating system since 2012, lthough not with the idea of launching it on the market to compete against the two major mobile operating systems, especially when neither Microsoft has been able to compete with them with its Windows Mobile, nor Samsung has had the success is expected with its Tizen.
Huawei is developing its own alternative operating system, according to reports
If not sooner we have an alternative operating system, a plan B, to dispose of it in the worst-case scenarios that may arise. According to what was published in the South China Morning Post this past weekend, based on sources familiar with the operation, who decided to remain anonymous, Huawei Technologies is preparing for a situation similar to the one currently found in ZTE, which is about to lose its license to use the Android operating system on its mobile devices.
In this regard, it should be noted that the United States Department of Justice began its investigations into possible violations of the sanctions prohibiting sales to Iran with Huawei Technologies last week, which neither the Department of Justice nor the technology company itself has been able to confirm.
According to one source, Huawei Technologies began development of its alternative operating system, which would also work for tablets and PCs, in 2012, following a U.S. investigation against its company and ZTE.
Huawei Technologies understands that its alternative operating system is not up to Android, and in fact, there are hardly any third-party applications for it, but in the extreme case that the United States prohibits the use of their technology and services, Huawei Technologies would be prepared for this possible scenario.
