This is the best summary I could come up with:


But the Chinese electronics giant is having a comeback with a buzzy return to the high-end phone market that’s pulling consumer attention away from Apple’s iPhone.

Huawei executives had previously described the development of its own operating system as a “Plan B,” as the company faced the prospect of being barred from using key hardware or software with U.S. origins.

Previous versions of HarmonyOS supported apps developed for Android, yet Huawei’s next update will end this compatibility, creating what the company calls a “pure” operating system.

Chinese firms are reportedly ramping up efforts to hire developers for HarmonyOS, including companies like Alipay owner Ant Group and McDonald’s China.

The rise of HarmonyOS is also coming as Huawei successfully returns to the 5G smartphone market, symbolized by its surprise release of the Mate 60 Pro in August last year.

“After years of hard work, we’ve managed to weather the storm,” Huawei rotating chairman Ken Hu said to employees in late December.
