Excited Huawei fans flock to Beijing store to check out new smartphone, OS | ABS-CBN News

Huawei fans on Tuesday (November 26) were excited to check out the Chinese tech giant's new smartphone at a flagship store in Beijing but some said they would rather "wait and see" if it performs well after a year or two years of usage. Huawei Technologies unveiled its Mate 70 smartphone series on Tuesday, bolstering its premium smartphone comeback while showcasing its own operating system that looks to cleanly break away from U.S. technology. Beijing residents were optimistic about Huawei’s journey to full independence on creating its own software but 30-year-old vlogger who gave her name in English as Vivian, said she was cautious about how the operating system would behave after a year or two. The Mate 70 series is the first major commercial rollout of the HarmonyOS NEXT, a significant step in Huawei's push for software independence since U.S. curbs cut off its access to Google services in 2019. HarmonyOS NEXT is the Android-free version of Huawei's operating system that began testing this year, marking a complete departure from Android code as the company seeks to eliminate its reliance on U.S. technology.
