Huawei’s own OS is called HongMeng and could gradually replace Android

Many have speculated that Google’s separation from Huawei may be nothing but temporary until both the Chinese Company and the US Government learn to play nice — but in the case that it is permanent, Huawei have reportedly been working on their own operating system for some time now and are ready to replace Android on a gradual basis.

Dubbed ‘HongMeng’, the in-house-built OS has reportedly been in the works since 2012 and will be Huawei’s ‘plan B’ should they be left out of the next Android update – which would be Android Q.

Huawei claims that they want to make something that will attract both users and app developers — but it will be a tall order considering both Android and iOS are doing such reliable OSs. It would be interesting to see how this whole trade ban fracas plays out — and if it goes south for Huawei, we might have a new OS on our hands.
