Huawei has its own operating system
China-based Huawei Technologies Limited is doing business with the Android operating system (OS) powered smartphone in the global handset market. The company is now creating its own OS to reduce US technology dependence. Khabar South China Morning Post.
Huawei is the world's largest telecommunications equipment manufacturer The United States Department of Justice has begun an investigation to find out whether the organization has exported IT products to Iran by disrupting US export ban. As part of this, the company is insisting on making its own OS. Because imposing trade restrictions will stop the supply of equipment and software to US technological institutions, which will have a major impact on the company's business. Huawei is making its own OS as part of early warning.
The US Trade Department recently imposed a ban on Chinese equipment maker ZTE. Huawei is working on its own operating system in order to avoid such a big impact in the business due to such sanctions.
The US named in the investigation against Huawei and ZTE in 2012. At that time, Huawei started operating its own operating system for smartphones. For the tablet and personal computer (PC), the company has already started developing OS and using it.
Detailed information about the investigation against Huawei is not known. The US Trade and Treasury Department has started investigating whether the Chinese company has exported goods to Iran and North Korea, after breaking the contractual terms. Besides, Chinese companies like Huawei and ZTE are considered to be a major threat to US national security. These organizations have been accused of handing over the important information of US multinational companies to the Chinese government.
According to Gartner, Google's Android and Apple's mobile device operating system dual dominance in the operating system. The two OSs are using 99.9 percent of the global mobile devices.
According to the Seth China Morning Post report, Huawei's founder Ren Zhengfi has already planned to develop its own operating system. He started working accordingly. Huawei has continued to implement the founder's plan. In any case, the company has also planned to invest in creating its own OS to avoid risk of business risk.
Huawei is using Android based EMUI OS in their handset. But the company has already appointed several experienced officials to create a complete new operating system.
Device makers such as BlackBerry and Nokia did not compete with Android and iOS with its own operating system before, while Huawei's decision was considered risky. If you use your OS on the device, the app will be reduced for customers, which can cause business loss.
Google has increased control over Android OS in the past few years. As a result, Huawei's Android-based device production is being interrupted. However, it is believed that the company will not have any restrictions on its own operating system.
Huawei is increasingly dominating the global device market. The new operating system is expected to not affect the business of the company. Huawe's plan relies on the company's trade relationship with the US with the new operating system.
