Last year, Google launched Android 12, the latest version of the Android operating system. Overall, it comes with various new features, and the Material Design got refreshed with the brand new Material You design library. There are also some changes that have been made in the performance and security side.
Following Android 12’s launch, there are many people that have asked for the base version of EMUI 12, Huawei’s new custom mobile software. According to some findings, it’s revealed that Huawei has chosen to keep this new EMUI version on Android 10. On the other hand, some consumers have concerns about why Huawei is not using the Android Open Source Project or the AOSP version of Android 12 to base EMUI 12.
For our beloved readers who don’t know, Huawei had to give up on Google services since May 2019 for new phones that launched after this timeline. Therefore, the new Huawei phone doesn’t come with pre-built Google apps.
So, why Huawei is not using Android 12 on EMUI 12? there are a few important aspects of this story that you should know about. Let’s dive in.
It might be using:
Currently, Huawei has not specified the Android version on the official EMUI 12 listing. Therefore, we can not confirm whether the EMUI 12 doesn’t have Android 12 but it has been verified by YouTubers and the tech community that this EMUI version still has Android 10 in its core.
WFA certificate
Before a smartphone maker begins an OTA rollout, it must have to gather some important certifications including the WiFi certificate to push an over-the-air update package. Following these events, Huawei had to give up its membership after U.S. sanctions but the partnership has been re-established later in the coming year.
However, the latest software update EMUI update is seemingly rolling out as a regular OTA, not as a major software update.
GMS:
Although, new Huawei smartphones cannot prove Google apps pre-build on their phone but the old ones still have Google’s GMS certificates. This means, the old phones launched before and including the Huawei P30 series still run Android apps natively.
It could be a matter that Huawei doesn’t want to touch any of the compatibility parts of the existing GMS services owners by installing the latest Android version, which is not officially supported by the phone maker.
Hence, the company is keeping it simple and providing a new look and feel for the consumers without sacrificing important services.
Shifting users on HarmonyOS:
Lastly, HarmonyOS. Yes, it’s a major topic of discussion and many users have been wondering when their devices will get a HarmonyOS upgrade? The answer is not known currently and officially. Still, we can expect that Huawei will plan to rollout the global version of HarmonyOS sooner or later. It might be the major concern why the Chinese tech maker has not been testing new Android versions since EMUI 10.0.

Huawei 5G base station teardown reveals only 1% U.S. components

Huawei is the largest network equipment maker. After the U.S. ban, the company has reduced reliance on related components. Adding to this, a recent teardown reveals that there is only 1% of U.S. components are now under work in the latest Huawei 5G base station.
A teardown coming from China reveals that 5G Huawei small base stations (5G small cell, covering areas ranging from tens of meters to 1 kilometer) use the lowest proportion of American components at 1%.
A detailed report on this matter has a further description of the components. More than half of the overall components used in the 5G Huawei base station are made in China. This is 7% more than Huawei’s large 5G base stations.
Looking back to 2020, a 5G teardown showed an estimated cost of 1320 USD, of which, the Chinese component accounted for 48.2 percent and 27 percent U.S. components.
Key components of Huawei base stations include the main semiconductor made by HiSilicon at 42 USD, memory made by Samsung Electronics at 3.20 USD, Storage device made by Cypress Semiconductor (U.S.) and Winbond Electronics (Taiwan), Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) made by Lattice Semiconductor and Xilinx (US), Semiconductor for power control made by Texas Instrument and ON Semiconductor, and Circuit protection parts are made by TDK (Japan).
The chipset used in the small 5G base station is printed by Taiwan’s TSMC before the U.S. ban and is part of the chip inventory saved by the Chiense tech giant. It is due to the fact that 5G base station shipments are smaller than the millions of shipments of smartphones.
Furthermore, Huawei’s 5G small base stations are using analog chips with Huawei’s LOGO. So these could be the company’s self-developed chipset but the manufacturer is still unknown.
Interestingly, analog chips require low-process technology as compared to logic chips.
Research firm Omdia reveals that the shipment of 5G small base stations is estimated to reach 2.8 million units in 2024, which is 3.5 times higher than in 2020. It is noted that the small cell market, the Asia-Pacific market accounts for more than 50% of the total, and China is the largest market among them.

Huawei FreeBuds series train ran late in 2022 and the wait for FreeBuds 5 is extending further as its launch continues to delay while we are still waiting.
Let’s jump to the story, Huawei first drew a line for FreeBuds 5 to launch alongside Huawei Pocket S but the company internally pushed the launch event. Last November, a report revealed that Huawei will launch FreeBuds 5 in the same year. However, it didn’t happen at that time either.
After all, Huawei Freebuds 5 has been delayed for too long, and a new one should be released this year. But the question is when?
In 2021, Huawei launched FreeBuds in May and the company expanded the FreeBuds 4 in the global market. Since we had an entire year ahead. Huawei rolled out the FreeBuds 5i in 2022, there are a number of aesthetic upgrades that we’ve seen in this mini version.
Despite a missing confirmation on the launch date, Huawei FreeBuds 5 should get a booking alongside the Huawei P60 series. This would be a perfect occasion to unveil this pair of earbuds.
Still, we’re waiting for an official announcement from Huawei. Until then, let’s take a look at some of the specs from the last version.
Huawei FreeBuds 4:
Huawei FreeBuds 4 comes with open-fit active noise cancellation 2.0. It has adaptive ear-matching technology to detect your in-ear shape and how you wear the earbuds. Then it smartly selects a variety of noise-cancellation presets.
Huawei FreeBuds 4 brings two aesthetically awesome colors – Ceramic White and Silver Frost. These earbuds are light and each of them weighs just 4.1 grams.
There are gestures and tap support, tap twice to answer and end calls, play/pause music, previous/next song or enable voice assistant. It has a swipe up and down to increase or decrease volume.
These earbuds include a special touch of tap and hold, which allows you to enable or disable noise cancellation.
This FreeBuds device is a battery powerhouse, it will boast 22 hours of battery with a charging case and ANC off. While you will get 4 hours from FreeBuds only.
