Huawei has officially unveiled its first laptop running entirely on HarmonyOS, signaling a major departure from Microsoft Windows. Developed in response to US trade sanctions, the new device is powered by Huawei’s in-house operating system, now upgraded to a true desktop-class platform. It features a taskbar, resizable windows, and its own custom kernel—distinct from its Android-based predecessors.
With over 2,000 supported native apps—mostly tailored for Chinese users—the laptop focuses on AI integration. Huawei’s digital assistant, Celia, offers productivity tools like document summarization and slide creation. While it doesn’t support Windows apps, it includes popular local alternatives like WPS Office.
This launch highlights Huawei’s ongoing strategy to reduce reliance on US technologies, following years of restrictions that blocked access to Windows and Android. HarmonyOS has already powered Huawei’s smartphones and tablets, and this expansion into the PC market marks a significant step in the company’s self-sufficiency roadmap.
