Huawei's 'HongMeng' operating system to gradually replace Android

It's interesting to consider what options Huawei has with this.

A genuinely novel system, maybe based on Linux like Tizen, seems doomed as there's no appetite among app developers to start supporting a new OS. If Microsoft can't do it, there's no way Huawei can.

So really that leaves a custom build of AOSP, which in today's world would probably be accepted as counting as a new OS. Oh how low the bar has fallen.

I certainly is interesting. Huawei's current market share is huge in Asia and Europe, but I'm not sure about customer loyalty. If the base is loyal this could probably work.

The headline is misleading. The article is simply speculating what Huawei might do.

Yes, it's a speculation based upon this "leak/rumor/.." (I don't really know how to define the information)
