Huawei will completely abandon Android in 2025 in favor of its Harmony OS Next

Huawei has announced that from 2025 its smartphones will no longer run on Android, but will completely switch to its own operating system, Harmony OS Next. This system does not support Android applications, which means that Huawei is actively working on creating its own ecosystem. At the moment, about 10,000 applications are already compatible with Harmony OS Next, and by 2025 the company plans to reach the mark of 100,000.

 

The new flagships, including the Mate 70 series and the upcoming Mate X6, will be the first devices with Harmony OS Next. However, at launch, these models will run on Harmony OS 4.3, which is partly based on Android. They will be able to update to the new system as soon as it becomes available.

Huawei Developments

 

At the HDC 2024 developer conference, Huawei introduced a new programming language called Cangjie for creating intelligent applications. According to experts, the main purpose of Cangjie is to unite two software platforms from Huawei: Harmony OS and OpenEuler in the field of application development.

 

Cangjie has a built-in AgentDSL structure that simplifies agent collaboration and symbolic expressions. The language is designed to be scalable, with a modular design for different scenarios and support for domain-oriented development. The system is based on the commercial EulerOS distribution, which is a fork of the CentOS package base optimized for work on servers with ARM processors.

 

Currently, most Chinese computer industry workers rely on C++ and Java as their programming languages. The language uses user-mode threads and concurrent object libraries to simplify development and improve resource utilization. The compiler and runtime are optimized to improve efficiency.

 

Interestingly, the first mentions of Huawei’s programming language appeared back in 2019. Then the US authorities restricted the company’s access to Google services, which caused the Chinese brand to lose the ability to produce smartphones on the Android operating system and switch to its own Harmony OS.
