Russian phone maker BQ loses Google GMS access, rumored to be testing HarmonyOS

HarmonyOS

According to Russian media reports, Google has stopped certifying Android-based smartphones from the Russian company BQ due to US sanctions. According to the report, the company is now testing Huawei's HarmonyOS from China. Also, it is claimed that the company will launch a smartphone with this system in the second half of the year.

However, in a recent report, Huawei has responded that it has no plans to launch HarmonyOS smartphones in foreign markets. Huawei said: "Since its release, HarmonyOS has been loved by a large number of consumers. By the end of 2021, 220 million Huawei devices will be equipped with HarmonyOS. We are very grateful for the interest and expectations everyone has for HarmonyOS. However, there are no plans to launch a phone with HarmonyOS overseas for now."

Many people now use this statement to claim that the Russian BQ will not use HarmonyOS. However, this is not the case. Huawei's above statement refers to the company's own smartphones. For the time being, Huawei has no plans to launch a Huawei smartphone with HarmonyOS in foreign markets. However, that doesn't mean a foreign brand can't use HarmonyOS outside of China.

Vladimir Buzanov, general manager of the Russian company BQ, previously stated that Google warned the company that US law prohibits providing services to Russia, including exporting, re-exporting and providing software and technology of US origin for Russia. Buzanov said that already certified devices will continue to function normally. With new devices, however, there could be problems with Android.

"All certified devices will continue to work, and new devices may experience Android issues," Buzanov said.
