problem is the ecosystem. google map, youtube, facebook, tweeter etc are essential app outside of china, so even if hauwei have good OS, it still wont able to attract customer without those app. i guess right now hauwei need concentrate on its hardware and internal china market. maybe outsource software to other company or india. Modi also want made in india, so maybe a india version of apps could attract more customer.
That would be a good idea, with China and India using their own OS and apps, the American hegemonic platform will be toppled.
