News & Reviews:   Ark OS

While US President Donald Trump recently said that Huawei could continue buying products from US companies, Larry Kudlow, National Economic Council chairman said that these “are selling products that are widely available from other countries ... This is not a general amnesty ... The national security concerns will remain paramount.” This means that Huawei will likely remain on the US Entity List and this was further confirmed with his comment “All that is going to happen is Commerce will grant some additional licenses where there is a general availability”.

As a result of the on-going trade war, Huawei has already prepared themselves with a brand new OS just in case Google stops supporting them (which it will). Currently, there are very little things that we know of, but someone managed to grab the screenshots of the filed patents in Europe under the codename Ark OS, Huawei Ark Os, Ark, and Huawei Ark.

Huawei’s in a tight spot right now as many vendors and businesses severe ties with the Chinese manufacturer. It seems like Huawei had anticipated this move for awhile and has been working on their very own OS. Reports have surfaced that the OS may be named “Ark OS” instead of the initially thought HongMeng.
