    It will be interesting if HarmonyOS 3.0 turns out to be better than iOS and Android while maintaining compatibility with Android apps. It seems like the software ecosystem is improving in leaps and bounds. They just have to solve the hardware restrictions brought on by US sanctions.

      Many people can't see it. Including you. HarmonyOS is an OS with Android UI skin. Not android with another UI skin. Most people are familiar with the design, layout, control, that's why such UI, but will slowly go their own way.

        Huawei can't even make their own smartphone OS. Just a fork of Android and put a skin and then called it Harmony OS 🤦🏻‍♂️

          Huawei just needs to make a complete OS replacement not an Android skin.

            I'm impressed Huawei is still putting some effort to improve app support without Google.

              One UI is the king.

                kek, 11 Apr 2022Then, its as I said: an Android Skin. All Android maker... moreHuawei Vision, Routers, Watches and any other non phone or tablet device running HarmonyOS do not have a run Android.

                Therefore, HarmonyOS for any of those devices cannot be just a skin.

                Neither is it just a 'skin' on Phones and tablets because there is a lot of core Huawei code present within EMUI like the AI runtime environment. Also EMUI 12 contains core elements of HarmonyOS.

                        SheethLuvsOneplus, 11 Apr 2022It's android source code (AOSP) but with Huawei alsoThen, its as I said: an Android Skin.

                        All Android makers start working on their stuff from the AOSP code.

                        OneUI, MIUI, ColorOS, etc are all developed in the same way and thats why their UI are so different sometimes. Same goes for this HarmonyOS thing.

                          kek, 11 Apr 2022You mean, the Android Skin known as "HarmonyOS 3.0". It's android source code (AOSP) but with Huawei also
