Media reports said that tech giant Huawei is likely to launch its proprietary Harmony OS for its global users next year.
In a recent media interview, Derek Yu, President of Huawei’s CB for Central and Eastern Europe, Northern Canada, and Turkey mentioned that the company could launch its OS globally in 2022, GizmoChina reported on Friday.
As of now, the Huawei HarmonyOS is already available in China across multiple different devices. This includes the likes of smartphones, smart home appliances, and more.
Although its global rollout has yet to be officially announced, the senior official added that the current version of HarmonyOS has primarily focused on Chinese users but has already been installed by over 100 million users.
The company unveiled the OS in 2019 during its Huawei Developer Conference, emphasizing its cross-platform functionalities.
Last year, HarmonyOS 2.0 was officially announced, with several improvements and an extension of the list of devices supporting the OS.
Earlier this year, the third iteration of HarmonyOS 3.0 was unveiled, with its first preview beta being set in the first quarter of 2022.
