It's interesting to consider what options Huawei has with this.

A genuinely novel system, maybe based on Linux like Tizen, seems doomed as there's no appetite among app developers to start supporting a new OS. If Microsoft can't do it, there's no way Huawei can.

So really that leaves a custom build of AOSP, which in today's world would probably be accepted as counting as a new OS. Oh how low the bar has fallen.

I certainly is interesting. Huawei's current market share is huge in Asia and Europe, but I'm not sure about customer loyalty. If the base is loyal this could probably work.
