Huawei's HarmonyOS was upgraded to the second generation in September last year with a beta and has been gradually rolled out to a stable version on high-end devices such as the Huawei Mate 40. The goal of the Chinese giant was to expand the software with another 100 devices by the end of 2021. but his purpose was far exceeded.

According to the company, currently 141 devices have been updated with HarmonyOS 2. Of the total, 135 are running a stable version of the operating system and 6 are in beta testing. It is worth remembering that the group includes mobile phones, tablets, smartwatches and other Huawei products and Honor.

By the end of August, the Chinese operating system had 90 different models, and several new additions to the respective portfolio compared to the previous ones came with a pre-installed system such as the Huawei Watch GT 3 and Huawei P50.

Last week, nine smartphones from previous generations received a new version of HarmonyOS, including Huawei Enjoy 20 and Honor 20i, in addition to the beta release for tablets from these brands. The initiative reinforced China's goal of extending the life of devices with a modern and fluid system.

The latest analysis shows that the operating system has already reached 150 million users, and Huawei predicts that it will update a total of 200 million devices by the end of 2021. Despite difficulties in several segments - including the chip market which is causing problems with Kirin's 5G offering - the manufacturer has high expectations in the software industry.
