华为在营销HarmonyOS 2.0作为全新的操作系统方面是不诚实的。 Beta版显示它是基于Android 10的EMUI 11重命名发表于 2021年2月3日 北京时间 星期三 上午 7:53:12
华为对HarmonyOS 2.0进行了隆重的描述,宣称它是“适用于所有情况的全新分布式操作系统”。 实际上,该公司已将HarmonyOS定位为Android的替代产品,首席执行官Richard Yu明确表示该操作系统“与Android和iOS完全不同”。 不过,Ars Technica的深入研究则提出了其他建议。 取而代之的是,HarmonyOS 2.0看起来只是EMUI 11的品牌重塑,而华为的定制版Android 10目前正在全球升级到该设备。 HarmonyOS 2.0不仅依赖于EMUI 11的UI,而且依赖于Android 10及其所有核心组件。 而且,在某些情况下,华为只是简单地重命名了组件“ HarmonyOS”,尽管它显然已经忘记与其他组件一起使用。 另一个不妥之处是HarmonyOS 2.0的外观如何。 如下面的屏幕快照所示,HarmonyOS 2.0不包含任何粗糙的边缘,并具有填充的应用程序商店。 根据Ars Technica的说法,甚至华为AppGallery都将HarmonyOS 2.0识别为Android 10系统。 如果你想试用HarmonyOS 2.0,则必须向华为提交有效的身份证件,驾照或护照,以及银行卡正面的图片。 完成此操作后,华为将对你进行为期两天的后台检查,以确定你是否值得在远程仿真器中试用HarmonyOS 2.0。 不能通过访问Android SDK来获得帮助。
最终,我们不怪华为在HarmonyOS 2.0中重新使用EMUI 11。 该公司于2012年发布了EMUI,并将其称为Emotion UI,直到2014年为止,因此,将9年的软件开发归类似乎毫无意义。 但是,华为目前对HarmonyOS 2.0是“全新”的说法充其量不过是假的。
Huawei is being dishonest in marketing HarmonyOS 2.0 as a brand-new OS; beta reveals it to be an EMUI 11 rebrand based on Android 10
Huawei currently bases HarmonyOS 2.0 on Android 10, according to Ars Technica. (Image source: Apps APK)Huawei may brag that HarmonyOS 2.0 is a 'brand-new distributed operating system', but Ars Technica has discovered that the company is telling porkies. Instead, HarmonyOS 2.0 is nothing more than a renamed EMUI 11, and one that Harmony requires a passport or a drivers licence to try out.
Huawei describes HarmonyOS 2.0 in grand terms, declaring that it is 'a brand-new distributed operating system for all scenarios'. Indeed, the company has positioned HarmonyOS as an alternative to Android, with CEO Richard Yu unequivocally stating that the OS is 'completely different from Android and iOS'. An Ars Technica deep-dive suggests otherwise, though.
Instead, HarmonyOS 2.0 looks nothing more than a rebrand of EMUI 11, Huawei's custom version of Android 10 to which it is currently upgrading multiple devices worldwide. Not only does HarmonyOS 2.0 rely on EMUI 11's UI, but it depends on Android 10 and all its core components. Moreover, Huawei has simply renamed components 'HarmonyOS' in some cases, although it clearly has forgotten to do so with others.
Another giveaway that something is amiss is how finished HarmonyOS 2.0 looks. As the screenshots below show, HarmonyOS 2.0 contains no rough edges and features a populated app store. According to Ars Technica, even the Huawei AppGallery identifies HarmonyOS 2.0 as being an Android 10 system。
If you would like to try HarmonyOS 2.0, then you must submit a valid ID to Huawei, a drivers licence or a passport will do, along with a picture of the front of your bank card. Once you have done that, Huawei will run a two-day background check on you to determine if you are worthy of trying HarmonyOS 2.0 in a remote emulator. There are no such hoops with accessing the Android SDK, for reference.
Ultimately, we do not blame Huawei from re-using EMUI 11 in HarmonyOS 2.0. The company released EMUI in 2012, which it called Emotion UI until 2014, so it would seem pointless to bin nine years of software development for the sake of it. However, Huawei's current claims of HarmonyOS 2.0 being 'brand-new' are disingenuous at best.
