Is HarmonyOS faster than Android?
In addition, a new video shows that the response speed to HarmonyOS is faster than that of the Android system. However, since it is still in its beta testing, it is too early to do any comparison. It will be better to wait for the final stable version before we draw any conclusion. This is because, at the end of the beta testing, it may become necessary to make this system heavier or even lighter.
As of now, the official timeline for the release of the stable version is bleak. However, from the information so far, Huawei should commence the large-scale release of the HarmonyOS as soon as June. Huawei models like Huawei Mate 40, Mate 30, P40, and Mate X2 series will get this update. These will be among the first batch of devices to get this update.
According toĀ Wang Chenglu, President of Huawei’s Consumer Business Software Department and Head of AI, HarmonyOS offers a unifying language for intelligence, interconnection, and collaboration of different devices. He claims that the HarmonyOS will run on 300 million units of devices this year. This includes smartphones, tablets, and other IoT devices. Of this number, about 200 million or more will be smartphones.
