| Huawei could launch the first HarmonyOS phone in early 2021 |
Chinese company Huawei had hoped in November that its mobile operating system, HarmonyOS, would work on smartphones in the next six to nine months, but it hasn't.
According to a new report, the company now intends to present the second version of the system at the Huawei Developer Conference on September 10, where the system was launched last year. According to this report, the first HarmonyOS mobile phone will be launched early next year.
