It is rumored that Huawei will not give up the Windows PC market and insist on the dual-line of Hongmeng and Zhixuan

[ Gearbest Technology News]Recently, news came out from the digital circle that Huawei will still maintain its dual-line strategy of “Hongmeng PC” and “Smart PC” in its PC business, and will not abandon its Windows-based product line in the short term.

Gearbestnoted that Huawei has launched MateBook Pro and other notebook computers equipped with its self-developed Hongmeng system, emphasizing cross-terminal collaboration, AI capabilities and ecological closed loops. At the same time, Huawei launched the “Hi MateBook” series of smart notebooks through its partner WIKO, which continues to use Intel processors and Windows systems to fill the market space left by Huawei’s own brand after switching to Hongmeng. A Tianfeng Securities research report pointed out that WIKO’s Hi MateBook series seizes “the Windows PC market window period left by Huawei’s switch to Hongmeng PC.”

Yu Chengdong previously stated that Huawei “will only have Hongmeng PC in the future,” but the actual business end still maintains the supply of Windows products through smart selection mode. Canalys data shows that Huawei shipped approximately 1 million units in the desktop and notebook market in mainland China in the second quarter of 2025, ranking second in share, indicating that its PC business is still large-scale.

Analysis points out that on the one hand, Huawei is accelerating the development and adaptation of Hongmeng PC (it has been adapted to more than a thousand applications) in an effort to make breakthroughs in its own operating system; on the other hand, Huawei maintains connection with mainstream hardware and the Windows ecosystem through smart PC selection to avoid losing users who value Windows compatibility. This dual-line strategy not only ensures the long-term goal of technological independence, but also maintains market presence and revenue at the current stage.

In the future, as the Hongmeng ecosystem is further improved, Huawei is expected to gradually increase the proportion of its own systems, but at this stage it will not easily give up the existing demand in the Windows market.
