Huawei‘s been in the news for all the wrong reasons lately, but things are finally stabilizing a bit. We’ve got news of a new phone, the company gets reinstated to the WiFi and SD associations. Now, we’ve got even more news from the company, this time regarding some new products. Would anyone like to see a Huawei TV? Because Huawei’s apparently been making a pair of them this whole time.
We’ve never really known Huawei to be a TV maker, but the company has just had two of the things certified at China’s National Quality Certification Center. There’s a 55-inch model and a 65-inch model, and both are from Hefei BOE Video Technology Co., Ltd. For those not in the know, Hefei BOE is one of China’s leading LCD makers. They’re also responsible for this really cool smart hospital, which is neat.
Inside sources currently claim that Huawei aims to sell at least 10 million Huawei TV products this year. That’s a pretty grand target considering all the ban business going on at the moment. We also wonder whether we could see Huawei’s ARK OS / HongMeng OS make an appearance here. On top of all this, we’re also very curious what changes Huawei plans to make to the traditional TV system.
We ask this mainly because Richard Yu, CEO of Huawei, really seems to hate traditional TV. According to Mr. Yu, “the traditional TV experience is very bad. Many people in the first-tier cities do not use TV,”. Outside of this, we’re not quite sure what to expect. We’ve known Huawei wanted to make these TVs, but we’re really not sure about anything else.
