The debut comes as President Trump said the US will cut its ties with Huawei.
On Friday, Chinese tech giant Huawei unveiled its new HarmonyOS software— an operating system for its upcoming electronic devices.

In the wake of Huawei's announcement, President Trump said on Friday that the United States will cut its ties with the Chinese tech behemoth.
The move comes just after China had stopped purchasing American agricultural products, a response to the Trump administration's latest round of tariffs on Chinese imports.
At the Huawei Developer Conference, the Chinese vendor has showcased Harmony OS, its in-house operating system to provide an alternative to Google’s Android.
We needed an OS that supports all scenarios, that can be used across a broad range of devices and platforms, and that can meet consumer demand for low latency and strong security.”
Currently, Harmony OS is more of a competitor to Google’s IOT focused OS, Fuchsia, but it is not difficult to see this was developed with mobile in mind also.
Many have connected the White House’s propaganda to the on-going trade ware between the US and China, though the underlying reasons are irrelevant; the ripples of posturing are going to have negative impacts.

The Huawei Mate 30 takes the core elements of the Mate 30 Pro, but forgoes some of that phone’s top-end features to keep the price down. However, as with all the new Huawei phones you can’t access Google’s services on this handset.
Huawei is hosting its annual developer’s conference, HDC 2019, in China from August 9th – August 11 2019.
Harmony OS is Huawei’s self-developed operating system.
At Huawei Developer Conference, Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei’s Consumer Business Group said Harmony OS is ready to be “deployed on the company’s smartphones any time but Huawei want to use Google’s Android OS due to its partnership and its vast ecosystem.” He also added that Harmony OS is faster than Android but the company still wants to use Android’s ecosystem at the moment.
The power of open source will help to build its ecosystem much faster and more and more people can contribute to its development.
The Harmony OS is built to work across different devices seamlessly in the theory of smart connectivity and support Tablets, Smartphones, PC, TVs, Wearables and more.
Just few days back rumor mill was abuzz with the news that HongMeng OS is Huawei’s answer to Google’s Android operating system.
Huawei is expecting to dispatch its own exceptional Hongmeng Operating Software for their gadgets so their course of action can't be affected by US sanctions.
