In a conference earlier today (23rd September 2020), Wang Yinfeng, President of Huawei Tablet and PC product line, confirmed that the company is actively working towards launching consumer grade desktops in the market along with new monitors in the near future.
Previously, we had reported on the Chinese tech giant looking to launch a curved gaming monitor series, which is likely a part of the company’s proprietary monitor brand. With this, Huawei will also be competing with another Chinese company that recently entered the monitor market, Xiaomi. Reports have also revealed the supplier, BOE, that would ship the first 2 to 3 batches of the displays panels. The sizes of the Huawei monitors have been hinted at 27 inch and 34 inch variants.

Furthermore, the company had also recently launched a workstation desktop that was powered by a Kunpeng 920 processor. However, this was only aimed at developers and not the consumer, but the conference from today revealed that Huawei will soon launch desktop PCs for consumers as well, as per a MyDrivers report. According to the senior executive, the company is developing commercial grade desktop products as well that should arrive soon.
Unfortunately, no specific deadlines or launch dates were given out during the event. It is also unknown what exactly the branding of these new desktop and PC peripheral products will carry. However, we now know for sure that the Chinese company is planning on entering the consumer PC market. So stay tuned for more updates that should arrive soon.
