TechInsights Data Market research agency TechInsights has published a report on the analysis of the smartphone market in China for the third quarter of 2023. Data shows that smartphone shipments in China fell 5% year-on-year in the quarter. The agency analyzed that the continued decline in supplies was due to factors including weak consumer demand and an uncertain economic outlook. However, the rate of decline stabilized during the quarter, indicating that the market is bottoming out. The Chinese market is expected to begin its recovery path in the coming quarters.

Huawei will probably release its laptops with this OS It seems that next year, Huawei is going to either release HarmonyOS for PC, or release computers directly with this operating system. [caption id="attachment_51945" align="aligncenter" width="563"] HarmonyOS[/caption] At least, Wang Chenglu, former president of the software development department of Huawei Consumer Business Group, answered the corresponding question in the affirmative. Unfortunately, there are no details yet. Huawei talked about HarmonyOS for PC back in 2020. In 2021, the Qingyun L410 laptop was released with the Kirin 990 SoC and the ability to install this OS, but the PC ran UOS 2.0 out of the box. Probably, now we are talking about the release of either the latest HarmonyOS 4.0 or HarmonyOS 5.0 for PC.
