lol ur comment was the kind I was looking for coz I'm in a place that I couldn't type. You just spoke my mind, Chinese operate a communist system which is one of the most dangerous since history. They are fraudsters, would they tell you the OS is not up to expectations, offcourse not, they will so hup themselves to Africans coz this is where they are targeting. Make god provide money, we went dey use chinko know say na wack, we just have too much responsibilities to spent four money on iPhones

It seems you guys don't get it. If Huawei successfully launches it's OS, that marks the beginning of the end for Android. You all talking about Facebook, Twitter and stuff, don't forget Huawei is also leading in 5G technology which has applications like Internet of things (IoT), driverless cars etc.
Imagine a social app backed by 5G with IoT applications, imagine your phone remotely communicating with your car or using your phone to drive your car, that's what we're talking about.
With such applications, it won't be long before Facebook et al joins their big brother, yahoo messenger in oblivion.
Huawei will still be the long term winner in this.

henryobinna:
you don't the hongmeng or whatever OS is still android OS just not the Google version...

kokomaster3d:


China doesnt use all these. They have their own social media sites.

freemi:
apps like which?

Arkmanbuddy:


That means when money stops flowing na.

Dottore:

First and foremost they don't need US to survive.

They were banned in the US since early 2018 get it didn't stop their continuous growth. China alone has the about 800million ACTIVE daily netizens accounting for the world's highest so having 200million out of this is more than enough to sustain Huawei’s existence not to talk of other Asian countries besides they said their OS will be compatible with all existing Android apps.
Even if they fail to run popular apps like whatsapp, Twitter, Facebook and YouTube they'd find a way to force their Chinese alternatives down the throat of their customers especially Africans and you'd see it work. All they have to do is make them available in English and make the advert rates cheaper. Already youku (Chinese YouTube) has more than 1.2 billion active monthly users despite running only in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong, we chat doubles as Facebook and whatsapp and has about the same number of active users. Infact presently wechat doesn't just sign up anybody that has a mobile number. They are forming premium. It means you have to meet certain conditions before you get signed up. Such conditions include having an existing user who hasn't been previously banned referring you by scanning a QR code from the new users phone. And such existing user must have signed up for their electronicpay services. No time for nonsense.
My brother I bet you that in the next 3 years Google would be seeking a merger.

otiwisdom:
I wonder if Nigeria had an OS,how would it look like.

blackaxe78:


And you believe a Tesla new in this play will knock of Toyota. Let Toyota come up with its own fully electric.

Till then, Toyota holds the market. Which I know it would take them great steps to fall if they finally get to come into electric.

We talking of brands at the top of the pyramid.

BrownRoofRep:

I don't think you get it
There are alternatives to all those websites but only Chinese are using them.
Social media strives on ecosystem.
How many of your friends use weechat instead of WhatsApp etc.

They will force them on you which at the end you'll abandone them.
This is exactly what killed Windows Mobile.

Get it in your heads bro, this is not about being banned in America only.
You can't synchronise your Google accounts.
Your popular playstore games won't work.
No Facebook Apps
Instagram
Messenger
WhatsApp
Twitter etc.

blackaxe78:


You amazed me with the Africa you mentioned. This are the most hard core consumers you have in the world. Forget the opinion they patronize Huawei phones much, in reality, its just affordable. Just let Rihanna flaunt an iPhone 10(example) and you will see 10,000 units sold in Nigeria alone next day.

You want to get Africa away from Google, Facebook and Instagram? You want to take them out of trend? The China mentality is stuck in our heads. We believe you inferior using a Chinese product.

Is not a same Africa where they worship Benz, BMW, Audi and Volkswagen above others and believe you just stepping up with a Toyota? Am giving you market and consumer trends.

Forget this hype. Reality will play very soon. 5 years I give that OS.

Between 2014 and 2016, China's total trade volume in the countries along the Belt and Road exceeded $3 trillion, created $1.1 billion revenues and 180,000 jobs for the countries involved. China has signed cooperational document on the belt and road initiative with 126 countries and 29 international organisations

martineverest:
u are a software developer as u are talking like a novice??..smh

how many Asian countries use Chinese android os?..Koreans,Japanese,Taiwanese,Singaporean etc don't use Chinese android..they use Google Android because Chinese android is riddled with spyware.do u even realise that takes only china and very few Asians countries that uses WeChat?....other Asians countries use Facebook, whatsapp, YouTube, Instagram, Snapchat etc...which aren't present in china.

windowsphone,tizen OS,webos,symbian is etc failed because of lack of developers support.huawei won't even go past 1 percent market shares

if u think it's easy to gain market share ask Google about the market share of their chrome os

patrickmuf:
This aggressive market strategy by Uncle Sam will likely backfire. I trust the Chinese government to compel all the mobile phone companies in China to go for the Huawei OS and you know what that means, they have the African and Asian Market and will compete for the European market. Huawei might just become the biggest beneficiary of the trade war.

pyrex23:

I know its still based on android

BrownRoofRep:
Will you use phone that you can't install WhatsApp Instagram Facebook and Messenger Google Chrome Twitter And other American own popular apps?

kennygee:


No. Remember the woman with an issue of blood in the bible?

When she said "for I know that if I can touch the hem of His garment, I'll be made well".

When she did, her illness stopped.

That's what I meant.

narttis1:


Is that the latest propaganda? The Chinese government forced who to do what? Do you know the US government get data about you from Facebook, Twitter, instagram and the other US companies? Have you asked yourself why is the US requiring you to submit your social media profile as part of visa applications? Which country spies on us more than the US? Google spies on every android.
Huawei is for a private individual, not the Chinese government. The US should learn to accept the fact that they can't be leaders everyday in everything. Other people are also intelligent

Arkmanbuddy:



I know now, the blood flow stopped.

CID11:
will there be facebook,instagram,twitter,Linken and watsapp

afroniger:
Necessity is the mother of invention. Huawei is using this crisis it's experiencing to innovate. This will only further enrich the tech/mobile OS ecosystem and give consumers more choices. If Apple could survive with it's iOS (even as a niche product) then I see no reason why Huawei's OS too can't, with time.

Hotfreezer:


This is a big lie. Stop telling lies.

Tecno and Infinix are so useless in China that no one buys them. Xiaomi, Oppo and Co are popular.

Ever heard of Tencent? I'm sure you've not. That's what Huawei would become. Popular in China, worthless outside China.

Or can you use a phone without Facebook, Watsapp, Instagram, Google maps, chrome, etc.

chigoziri2403:
Huawei and Android is not Nigeria bro, where rigging is the real election, there is sanity in those regions

Dottore:

They are no fools. Having been a hardware giant and having used and customized Android for years, I'm sure they know how to better their game. Whatever they did to wriggle their way to become worlds second largest mobile phone maker shows that they know their onions.
