The HarmonyOS system breaks through the encirclement, the Android iOS monopoly may end, and the new order of the operating system is coming?
Since its launch, Huawei's HarmonyOS has been working hard to break through the monopoly of Android and iOS. After years of development, the HarmonyOS system has begun to take shape, the number of users continues to rise, and the ecosystem is becoming more and more perfect. Industry insiders generally believe that the HarmonyOS system is redefining the operating system pattern, the dominance of Android and iOS has been challenged like never before, and a new operating system and new order are coming.
For a long time, Android and iOS have dominated the global smartphone market, and it is difficult for other operating systems to shake their monopoly. In recent years, Huawei's self-developed HarmonyOS system has gradually broken through unremitting efforts.
HarmonyOS was originally created in response to trade bans and was designed to replace the Android system that could no longer be used. At the initial stage, the HarmonyOS system ecosystem was still relatively thin and lacked sufficient application support. However, with Huawei's vigorous promotion, the HarmonyOS system ecosystem has become increasingly rich and has attracted a large number of developers to join. According to official data, the number of applications of the HarmonyOS system has exceeded 1 million so far, covering various commonly used application scenarios.
In addition to the improvement of the application ecology, the HarmonyOS system has also made great progress at the technical level. The latest HarmonyOS 3.0 version has achieved comprehensive self-development from the underlying kernel to the framework, completely getting rid of the dependence on Android. The Hongmeng system has independent and controllable core technology, which has been significantly improved in terms of security and fluency.
The HarmonyOS system is not only limited to the field of mobile phones, but also an operating system for all scenarios. It can cover a variety of terminals such as mobile phones, tablets, computers, smart homes, etc., providing users with a unified interactive experience. This advantage of the HarmonyOS system makes it highly favored in the era of the Internet of Things, and it is expected to become the operating system standard for future smart devices.
HarmonyOS still has a long way to go to completely break the monopoly of Android and iOS. With the first-mover advantage, Android and iOS have a huge application ecosystem and user base, and it is difficult to be fully replaced in the short term. The rise of the HarmonyOS system will undoubtedly reshape the operating system landscape and bring more choices to users. A truly open and pluralistic new order of operating systems is taking shape, which will be a new opportunity for the development of the entire technology ecosystem.
The rise of the HarmonyOS system has undoubtedly brought a huge impact to the dominance of Android and iOS. For a long time, these two operating systems have firmly occupied the mobile terminal market with their huge user base and application ecology. But with the continuous development of the HarmonyOS system, the operating system landscape is undergoing profound changes.
As a product of Google, the Android system has always been at risk of being sanctioned by other countries. In recent years, the U.S. government has imposed trade restrictions on Chinese technology companies such as Huawei, making it impossible for Huawei phones to be licensed to use the Android system. The incident highlighted the risks of Android's over-reliance on U.S. tech companies, accelerating the birth of an alternative to domestic operating systems.
Apple's iOS system is also facing the dilemma of sluggish growth. Due to the high-end positioning of Apple's products, they are expensive and have a limited market share in developing countries. The Hongmeng system is aimed at the low-end market and is expected to take a share in this field.
In addition to Huawei, other domestic mobile phone manufacturers are also stepping up their independent research and development of operating systems. Xiaomi, OPPO, vivo and other companies have launched their own operating system solutions, but their current influence and market share are still limited. With the increasing improvement of the domestic operating system ecosystem, a new force may be formed in the future to challenge the dominance of Android and iOS in the global market.
Despite the rapid development of the HarmonyOS system, it is not possible to completely replace Android and iOS overnight. The HarmonyOS system still faces many challenges and resistances, and it needs to be sustained to finally achieve a breakthrough.
The HarmonyOS system needs to further improve the application ecosystem. Although the number of apps has exceeded 1 million, there is still a certain gap compared to Android and iOS. The lack of support for popular apps will greatly affect the user experience. The HarmonyOS system must attract more developers to join and create a rich and diverse application matrix.
HarmonyOS needs to nurture its own developer community. Android and iOS have developed over the years and already have a large developer base. In order to win the favor of developers, the HarmonyOS system must provide good development tools and environment, and establish an active community atmosphere to attract more talents to join.
The HarmonyOS system needs to form a strong differentiation competition with Android and iOS. As a latecomer, the HarmonyOS system cannot simply copy the functions and experience of existing systems, but should go beyond in some areas and provide users with a new value proposition. For example, in emerging fields such as the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence, the Hongmeng system may be able to occupy some opportunities.
The development prospects of the HarmonyOS system depend on the support of national policies. As a representative of the domestic operating system, the Hongmeng system is related to the country's independent and controllable ability of science and technology. If it can obtain strong support from policies and funds, its development will achieve twice the result with half the effort. Without policy support, the road to development will be even more difficult.
Although there is a long way to go for the Hongmeng system to break through the encirclement, the prospect is still worth looking forward to. A real new order of operating systems is taking shape, and the future market pattern will show a trend of diversified development, injecting new vitality into the development of science and technology.
