it will be good, for a start, make it china only since china only (for example, originOS) come without google apps

Anonymous, 02 May 2025Wow this is great news.
So, HarmonyOS layer on Xiaomi'... moreJust a clarification about my post:
While I do hope Xiaomi, Vivo etc drop Android layer and go FULL Harmony compatible in China.
I do hope Xiaomi, Vivo, etc do BOTH Harmony & Android compatibility in the rest of the world as a 3-5 years transition

Excellent move. I don't understand why China doesn't outright ban Google and/or Apple. The US went after Huawei - China's biggest tech company. China should do the same.

Ellen Dale, 02 May 2025There is definitely a need of a proper third party competit... moreI would say second party as there is monopoly on google for all android devices.
While Apple is totally it's own thing where other brands cant use their OS with the iPhone iOS version or have a skin over iOS like we have all sorts of Asian brands doing it on android.
On the windows part i agree on you. And windows run on even Lumia 520 so well. It even now works better then my 7 years old Redmi note 5 pro
And windows phones in majority were at SD4 series and few 6 series.

as long as every app, and i mean EVERY APP can be uninstalled without rooting or sketchy 3rd party software, it's going to be much better than current google infested crap.

There is definitely a need of a proper third party competitor for apple and google
Huawei doesn't operate outside of china
And windows is a wasted potential
