Huawei Technologies Co said on Wednesday that it may launch a self-developed operating system later this year.

 

华为周三表示可能将于今年晚些时候推出自主研发的操作系统。

 

Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei's consumer business group, said that the company's own operating system will be available "as early as this fall or next spring at the latest."

 

The comments came after Google said it would partially¹ cut off Huawei devices from its Android operating system. As part of the latest development, the US government said on Tuesday that it could delay its ban on American technology exports to Huawei, but the move will give its existing devices access to Android for 90 days.

 

"Huawei's own operating system will be compatible² with all Android and all web applications. If the Android apps are recompiled, their running performance can be improved by more than 60 percent," Yu said in a WeChat group involving some internet experts.

 

According to him, the new operating system will be able to support mobile phones, computers, tablets, televisions, cars and smart wearable devices. Huawei did not respond to requests for comments.

 

Meanwhile, shares of Chinese companies focusing on operating systems saw huge spikes³ on Wednesday with Wondertek, Bird and Nsfocus all rising by the 10 percent daily limit.
