  1. Death from the smartphone market, and possibly high-end retail electronics as whole. Much like how IBM is still very much around, but consumers aren’t buying IBM branded gadgets anymore.

  2. I doubt the HarmonyOS will do much better than other alternatives like Samsung Tizen: Chinese consumers are not that valuable per user due to their low individual buying power (even before the structural downturn the PRC is nowadays facing) and unfree payment networks they’re limited to. Meanwhile well-informed foreigners would be wary to give their data to the CPC intelligence community. So basically the Huáwéi user base will be limited to Party patriots and naïve newcomers.
