Huawei has established himself as the undisputed leader in technological development in China, stimulating both the manufacture of fleas and the progress of its operating system, Harmonyos.
Following the sanctions imposed by the United States, other Chinese brands such as Xiaomi, Oppo and Realme plan to create their own operating system, emulating Huawei’s trajectory.
Although they are fierce rivals, these manufacturers are pushed by the geopolitical pressure to explore alternatives to the Android Open Source (AOSP) project.
Huawei is leading the China technological revolution in the midst of the United States sanctions.
On the Chinese market, Brands like Xiaomi and Oppo already operate without depending on the services of Googleusing AOSP as a basis for their customizations.
However, at the international level, its success depends on the supply of the complete experience of Android, which includes Google and the Play Store, crucial elements for acceptance on the markets outside of China.
Huawei’s experience has shown how complicated it is to sell devices without Google’s services abroad, which influences the strategy of other manufacturers.
-Recent rumors suggest that alliances are formed between brands like Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo and Realme for the development of an alternative operating system, similar to an Android without Google. However, the absence of official announcements and concrete evidence indicates that, for the moment, these plans seem more speculative than concrete.
The motivation behind these movements is clear: the growing friction between the United States and China could force these brands to develop a more independent ecosystem.
Although these companies strengthen their own ecosystems thanks to IoT, Cloud services and application stores, they have still not opted for a coordinated plan to a final “Chinese Android”.
Huawei has learned from the difficulty of operating without Google and the time and resources necessary to develop an alternative system, which will have significant implications for any future large -scale change test.
