Huawei announced that it will host a HarmonyOS ecosystem event dubbed ” Hongmeng Eco Thousand Sails Sailing Ceremony ” in China on January 18. While many might be hoping for a glimpse of a new HarmonyOS version dubbed “NEXT”, the focus of this event lies elsewhere.
Instead of launching a new operating system, Huawei plans to dive into future innovation strategies and showcase the progress of native app development for HarmonyOS. The event will also offer a hands-on experience with the existing HarmonyOS ecosystem.
Huawei aims to connect with potential partners and explore business opportunities that benefit users. Attendees and online viewers can interact with key executives, ask questions, and gain insights into the future of HarmonyOS.
The event will be held in eight major cities across China, namely Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Chengdu, Xiamen, Wuhan, and Changsha, making it accessible to a wider audience. Registration is simple and can be done through the provided link.
As for the HarmonyOS NEXT, it’s expected that Huawei will release the first developer preview in the first half of 2024. While the launch is still a few months away, it’s important to note that recently, major Chinese companies have started developing native applications for HarmonyOS NEXT. Big names like iQiyi, Alipay, Meituan, MiHoYo, Bilibili, and Amap are already on board.
Wu Hao, the CEO of Huawei Interactive Media Corps and President of Huawei Terminal Cloud Service Interactive Media BU, announced last month that over 700 million devices are now part of the Hongmeng Ecosystem.
Huawei is working with partners in various sectors like gaming, social media, travel, business, and hospitality. These partnerships focus on developing native applications for Hongmeng in 18 different fields.
Meanwhile, according to a recent report by TechInsights, it’s predicted that Huawei’s HarmonyOS will overtake Apple’s iOS as the second most popular smartphone operating system in China by 2024.
