With the convening of several developers' conferences, we can also know that the HarmonyOS system is progressing steadily, and even the beta version of the HarmonyOS system has begun to be pushed. The emergence of HarmonyOS system not only ushered in the dawn of domestic self-developed systems, but also caused a crack in the monopoly of Android and IOS. At Huawei's MateX2 mobile phone conference, Yu Chengdong also made it clear that the HarmonyOS system is expected to be officially launched in April.
Before the HarmonyOS system was officially released, another Huawei device was exposed. This product is Huawei's flagship flat-panel MatePad Pro2. In principle, this tablet product equipped with Kirin 9000 chip will not attract strong attention from consumers, but the fact is that MatePad Pro2 has become a hot topic of "pollen" before this product is officially released, because this product is the first pre-installed device in HarmonyOS system.
Recently, this MatePad Pro2 has obtained the network access license, and the interface of the internal system has also been exposed. After seeing the interface, many "pollen" are not calm, which can be described as full of doubts. The reason for questioning is also very simple. From the main page, the design of HarmonyOS system is very similar to Apple's ipad OS and MacOS, especially the design of Dock bar at the bottom can be said to see many shadows of Apple. So in this case, many people say that Huawei began to "copy".
In fact, as early as the release of the beta version of HarmonyOS system, "Pollen" made the same remark at the beginning, thinking that HarmonyOS system is an Android system with skin, and its UI interface is exactly the same as that of EMUI based on Android, even compatible with Android APP. Through these superficial phenomena, it is concluded that HarmonyOS copied Android. Now accused of copying apples. Presumably Huawei is also very upset.
For a system, just relying on a Dock column cannot explain the so-called plagiarism. Moreover, Huawei applied for relevant patents for this design scheme last year. Throughout Android, Apple and even Windows systems, there are similar schemes. After all, this scheme has been tested by the market and is the most acceptable design for consumers, so Huawei is right to do so.
It is somewhat arbitrary to judge that HarmonyOS is changing Android only by one interface, and to copy Apple. Regardless of whether the HarmonyOS system is plagiarized or not, even now, the UI designs of Android and IOS are gradually approaching, Android is becoming flatter and flatter, and the widgets of IOS are increasing every year. After all, a system is a system and a product that serves consumers. As long as it can bring a good experience to consumers, there is no need to change the plan, which may be counterproductive.
So is the HarmonyOS system plagiarism? Not at all. After all, no matter how the system is designed, it can't be designed. Moreover, Huawei has applied for related patents before.
what do you reckon ?
