HarmonyOS NEXT ready for launch? A tipster says otherwise

Huawei officially announced the launch of HarmonyOS NEXT by the end of this month however, a tipster says otherwise. A new input reveals that the company could still delay the HarmonyOS NEXT official version release till next month.

Tipster @DirectorShiGuan said that there won’t be any HarmonyOS NEXT launch at the end of this month. The previous information has been revised again and Huawei smartphone users should keep patience till next month (October 2024).

Isn’t it a bit strange? One of the Huawei officials – Chen Xinxin said that the HarmonyOS NEXT launch will happen by the end of this month. This news was reported by local media covering the China International Fair Trade-In Service event.

But let’s recall Huawei’s official words during the HDC 2024 event for HarmonyOS NEXT. Yu Chengdong, the Chairman of the company’s Consumer Business Group said that HarmonyOS NEXT official version will meet users in Q4 2024.

Yu didn’t reveal the exact timeline. In that case, the tipster’s point seems accurate to some extent. Another point of view is, Huawei could introduce HarmonyOS NEXT stable version this month while initiate the rollout for flagship models next month.

The Chinese tech giant is likely to host a launch event in China on September 24. If the previous report is true, the company will surely share HarmonyOS NEXT details during the event. Or else, we have to hold our patience till the next month.

Huawei vs Honor – next month?

The tipster further states that two tech giants probably Huawei and Honor, will rival each other next month for their flagship models and a new OS. He adds that this would be the first time that both firms will have a head-on moment after their separation.

The flagship models here might refer to the Mate 70 and Magic 7 series. But previous revelations say that both lineups could launch in November this year. Let’s see how far the current information will appear to be true in the time ahead.
