Now Huawei has introduced its first laptop that will ship with HarmonyOS rather than Windows.The move to develop its own operating system wasn’t entirely Huawei’s idea – the company has been put in a tight spot by US sanctions that prevent US-based companies like Google and Microsoft from doing business with Huawei, which limited the company’s access first to Android, and more recently to Windows.
