HUAWEI's new Harmony OS Next is a very different OS to Android, but can it really become a major competitor?

    Vendor lock-in, I don’t think so.
    Maybe on a local market.

      They are a major force in the Chinese market so maybe it might see some traction there, but otherwise, I still don’t see a third mobile OS getting genuine market share.

    I dunno, kinda doubt it.
    I don’t think most devs will be really thrilled on having to support another platform with a seemingly petty different SDK.
    I think that not offering any type of Android compatibility, no matter how limited, will prove to be a mistake

    Very very doubtful. As much as it would be nice to have another OS.
