skyfire Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 So another version of harmony OS is out. Though I am not sure if andorid devices have support for it. But those huwei devices with android on them can possibly install it and try out I suppose. https://www.huaweicentral.com/harmonyos-hongmeng-os-everything-you-need-to-know/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Harmony OS has something called MicroG which allows them to install Google Services on their devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share Posted August 20, 2021 Yes the OS seems to have got a lot of demand compared to stock android. the reason being they seem to have got battery optimization right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know - a lot of people around the world don't trust Chinese made software (to be fair, they do collect a lot of data) because of the lack of quality (also a big issue) and the amount of data their software typically collects.

Personally, the world is far more distrusting of the Chinese than the US but I think it should be equal. Just look at the Snowden leaks and some US people still trust their leaders.

Not sure what this has to do with the topic but Crypto is beneficial to people who can't afford to be apart of the banking system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, China makes any kind of product quality that you want them to make for you. It's all about the money you're willing to pay. If you pay for it to be made cheap, its quality will definitely be low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted September 29, 2021 Author Share Posted September 29, 2021 True quality suffers when we cut the cost and try to make things cheap. I have noticed that huwei is moderately priced and also good for overall performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 It looks very similar to IOS too, not just Android. I don't really like the aesthetics (just because of how square, bright and 'cheap' it looks) of it at the moment, but I hope overtime the design will be polished to look nicer like stock android for example. But still, this is a great step forward taken by Huawei. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted October 1, 2021 Author Share Posted October 1, 2021 A lot of IOS graphics is taken from harmoney and xiaomi. so it goes vice versa on the design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly - it's actually one of the biggest challenges most companies face when they are pushed to make cheap products by cutting down on its quality.
