7、dnesday night, the HarmonyOS. The move paved the way for the Chinese firm to challenge Googles and Apples role in current and future OS ecosystems.Among the major strong points, the HarmonyOS, with a highly scalable (可扩展的) platform, can be applied to various devices, including smart phones, computer
8、s, and other electronic devices, the company said.Analysts said the OS will do a lot to promote Huaweis change into being a software service provider. Huaweis founder and CEO Ren Zhengfei said that the company was focusing on software because future development in the field was basically “out of US

12、ications that can attract consumers to update to the OS? Thats a question,” Liang said. So far, more than 300 application and service partners, 1000 hardware partners, and 500,000 developers have joined in the set-up of the Harmony ecosystem.22.What advantage does the HarmonyOS have over other opera
