Huawei CEO Teases 'Disruptive' Products for 2024

South China Morning Post reports that Yu enticed tech enthusiasts with promises of "disruptive" products that would change the course of industry history. He teased products that would be "leading, innovative, and disruptive," emphasizing their commitment to innovation and catching the interest of industry observers.

The Mate 60 series, an example of Huawei's persistence despite US sanctions, marked the company's successful return to the 5G smartphone market. Despite facing significant trade restrictions, Huawei's in-house developed Kirin 9000S processor powers these devices, sparking both admiration and scrutiny.

The spotlight now falls on Huawei's in-house Kirin 9000S processor. Crafted against all odds amid stringent trade barriers, this processor has become a focal point of admiration and concern. TechInsights' teardown of the Mate 60 Pro confirmed the existence of this groundbreaking 7nm chip, defying expectations imposed by the sanctions.

While the US government's restrictions on semiconductor exports pose a challenge, Huawei's acquisition of critical components remains a mystery.

Yu also stated at the event that Huawei will launch native apps and products centered on its self-developed mobile platform HarmonyOS next year, making the company one of China's top operating system operators.

The expansion of HarmonyOS with native apps and partnerships with industry giants like Alibaba and McDonald's signals Huawei's ambitions to carve its path in the operating system realm.

SCMP reports that Alibaba's fintech affiliate, Ant Group, is crafting a HarmonyOS version of its mobile payment app, Alipay. Additionally, multinational companies like McDonald's are joining Huawei's platform, indicating a growing ecosystem around HarmonyOS.

The roadmap for 2024 does not stop there. Huawei's vision includes a developer preview version of HarmonyOS Next, slated for release in the first quarter of 2024. This strategic move aims to position Huawei as a key player in China's operating system market.

The anticipation surrounding Huawei's upcoming innovations, coupled with the scrutiny from global authorities, underscores the company's pivotal role in the tech.
