Key points
  • “Our infrastructure business achieved profitable growth and nearly double-digit market share, while Solutions & Services continued to strengthen its best-of-breed industry position and significantly increased its advanced services business mix to over 50 percent.” Lenovo has not named a new leader for its APAC outpost.
  • The machine runs a newly developed enterprise version of HarmonyOS, the OS Huawei developed to end its dependence on Android and which it intends to run on most of the devices it makes.
  • The company launched the Qingyun HM650 last week and said it uses Huawei’s own Kirin X90 processor, a ten-core 20-thread machine with a clock speed of 2.3 GHz.

Even if Huawei is using some parts that aren’t entirely Chinese, the debut of the Qingyun HM650 is bad news for Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm, as all are suffering as the PC market shrinks due to the rising cost of memory.

Huawei claims it’s built a desktop PC that uses only parts made in CHina.
