| 3 Key Advantages of Huawei's HarmonyOS Over Android and iOS. |
Huawei is making waves again—this time with its very own operating system: HarmonyOS. According to Richard Yu, head of Huawei’s consumer business group, HarmonyOS offers three major advantages over both Android and iOS. If you're curious about what sets it apart, here's a breakdown in simple terms.
1. Advanced Security: Star Shield Architecture
One of the biggest concerns users have today is privacy, especially when apps request access to photos, contacts, or location. With HarmonyOS, Huawei introduced a Star Shield Security architecture that changes the game.
Instead of giving an app access to your entire photo gallery, HarmonyOS allows the app to open just one selected photo—nothing more. Once the action is complete, access is immediately revoked. This tight integration between software and hardware helps protect your personal data more effectively than traditional permission models.
Your data stays under your control—just the way it should be.
2. Seamless Device Integration
HarmonyOS is designed to work across a wide range of devices: smartphones, tablets, laptops, smart home gadgets, PCs, and even cars. This deep-level integration means all your Huawei devices can communicate with each other smoothly.
You can:
-
Instantly transfer files between your phone and laptop
-
Continue your work across multiple screens
-
Control smart appliances from your smartwatch or tablet
This multi-device ecosystem allows you to stay connected without constantly switching apps or cables.
Everything just works—together.
3. Smarter AI Features That Adapt to You
HarmonyOS also includes powerful AI-driven features. The built-in virtual assistant, Celia, is now smarter than ever. It learns your habits and preferences to offer helpful suggestions throughout your day.
From managing your schedule to enhancing data security settings, Celia adjusts itself to provide meaningful support in daily tasks. AI is also built into privacy tools, ensuring that protection evolves with your usage behavior.
It's not just smart technology—it’s practical and personalized.
HarmonyOS 6.0 Coming Soon
Thanks to these innovations, HarmonyOS has already reached over 103 million installations worldwide. And the best part? Huawei is gearing up to launch HarmonyOS 6.0, bringing even more improvements to the platform.
If you're looking for an operating system that's more secure, better integrated, and powered by truly helpful AI, HarmonyOS might be the next big thing to try.
