In China, Android has the largest share of the mobile operating system market, which stands at 77%. iOS is in second place with a 22% pie of the cake. The rest of the platforms make up less than 1% of the market share. So, looking at these numbers, one can confidently say that no mobile operating system will be able to give a tough fight to Android and iOS anytime soon. Surprisingly, that’s exactly what might happen soon.

According to a new report from TechInsights (via South Morning China Post), the market share of Huawei’s HarmonyOS. will soon surpass that of iOS, with the former taking the second position. The publication claims that the growth of HarmonyOS will be driven by the Huawei Mate 60 Series phones, which are reportedly in immense demand in the country, owing to a wave of patriotic fervor to support the home-grown brand.

The change will lower the stock value of Apple even further, which took a significant hit in the last few days. At the same time, the change will put a feather in Huawei’s cap, helping it come back into the game after the company had hit rock bottom due to US sanctions. The Chinese company recently announced a new version of HarmonyOS, called HarmonyOS Next. It is expected to arrive this year without support for Android apps.
