I tried a Nova 4e bought in the chinese market. No play store... installed the APK (with the seller doing it for me), it was a no go. Took the phone to the hotel and try to do it my way. Play store installed. Phone rebooted, play store vanished... ok, let's download the apks... whatsapp... installed, never started after receiving the message... the worst part was that my gmail account it never could be used on the phone, outlook started screaming about invalid security certificates....
So, if the future phones are going to be something like this, then they will crash and burn.

In this matter, I hope Huawei want to use and develop SailFish OS. It's a great OS but no manufacture support

Back when android was young, I had WinMo, eclaire, and Linux on my HD2.
It was fun switching back and forth.
If phone manufacturers could give us the choice of OS I wouldn't even mind Win10 with phone capability.

Winners: Ericsson and Nokia and Samsung in Networks.
Samsung and Apple in phones. I don't think people are now brave enough to buy other Chinese brands, because the Trump administration can do whatever it likes to them and ban them in an instant, as the trade war continues. Unfortunately.

I whish I could see the "we told you so" faces of the developing team of Huawei's in-house OS, when they requested more funds for their work a while back. You don't just start making your own OS unless you knew this was coming. But, when you find you're too cheap to invest in your OS... this is what you get.
This would be the right moment for Huawei to turn to the Huawei comunities/fans and push its' own Beta versions of OS to those people. What better and faster feedback could you have? It could be up and running in a few months.

If Huawei will fight with it's own OS, it will take a lot of time to develop from beginning, try to introduce and sell the new product to the world. Until that time, Huawei already left by customer and replaced by other brand.
If Huawei still use open source Android without play store and other google stuff but use other stores, customer outside china will think if the apps from that kind of stores are safe for them.
I myself definitely not going to use if I doubt the safety, for now we put a lot of stuff in our phone.

naive analysis. it will take huawei less than one month to have a store. there is allready alternative to all google services by bidu, yandex.. they just need to translate them. huge oportunity for baidu to go globally. the biggest looser long term will be google. they take 30% from developers for all sales on playstore
