Huawei’s computer business is on the verge of a major shift in the coming weeks. The Chinese company may soon be forced to abandon Windows, leaving it with limited options for continuing to bring new PCs to market.
Starting in April 2025, Huawei will launch new PC models that no longer use Windows as their default operating system. According to domestic sources cited by MyDrivers, the Guangdong-based company may soon lose the ability to sell Windows PCs to Chinese customers. As a result, Huawei appears to be shifting its focus toward Linux and HarmonyOS, its proprietary operating system.
Remember when unlocking bootloaders on Huawei was very easy? Sigh, good times…
This sounds like a GNU/Linux system with a LOT of propietary and limiting additional software.
Looks like they want to do the same lock-in stategy on PCs
