According to Canalys data, in 2023, Huawei will already be the third largest PC manufacturer in the Chinese market, with a share of 10% and shipments of nearly 4 million units, an increase of 11%.
Through this data, we can believe that PC is already one of Huawei's important revenue sources, and according to the growth rate of Huawei's PC, this share will be higher in the future, becoming the second in China, or even the first is not impossible.
And everyone also knows that at present, Huawei's PC, in fact, is just assembly, CPU is intel's CPU, the system is windows, and other cores, such as hard disks, graphics cards, etc., are basically purchased.
This kind of assembly, of course, is not what netizens want, and it is estimated that it is not what Huawei wants, after all, Huawei has always tried its best to self-develop its own products and reduce its dependence on foreign countries, especially the core components, most of which are self-developed.
Considering Huawei's old friend Apple, it is already fully self-developed on the PC, the CPU is an M series chip, and the system is MacOS, Huawei can also learn from Apple.
So recently, there was news that Huawei will also learn from Apple on the PC, touch Apple to cross the river, open the era of comprehensive self-development, and the first self-developed chip, using the Hongmeng system PC, will be launched in September.
First of all, on the chip, it is said that Huawei will be based on the original Kunpeng chip, self-developed CPU used in the computer, and it is likely that the chip adopts Huawei's independent research and development of Taishan V130 architecture, and in terms of performance, it will not lose to Apple's M chip, and it is even expected to compete with AppleM3 processor.
As for the system, if you don't use the X86 architecture, you can't install windows, but Huawei has a HarmonyOS system, so Huawei is likely to use the HarmonyOS system in its own computer.
I don't know what you think about this? Apple has been very successful after replacing the intel chip with the self-developed M chip in its Mac computer.
Considering Huawei's influence in China today, as well as Huawei's shipments, if it is fully self-developed, using self-developed CPUs and its own HarmonyOS system, it will not only be able to save costs and increase profits.
More importantly, it will also build an ecosystem similar to Apple's M chip and MacOS, that is, Huawei chip + HarmonyOS system, which is the most important thing, and then it depends on when Huawei will launch such a fully self-developed PC.
