I recently saw mrwhosetheboss’s video on banned (in us) banned Huawei products. And I really liked the os the phones had.

In my opinion, the animations were really cool. The customization seemed really nice, specially on the widgets aspects. And thought when using phones it is not something I really look into, I found the whole ecosystem part really good and for some people I think it would be perfect.

What are your thoughts? Do you think it’s better than stock android / pixel launcher (which I’ve heard people say is the best option as for now, and thought I haven’t tried it yet I think it probably is)?

Also I don’t know if harmony os is installable on other Androids. Would it be worth it? Or you would stick with custom ROM like Pixel Experience?

I want to see what you think!

    I’d be curious if you can still sideload the Playstore and Play Services. I have a Huawei Mate 9 Pro and Honor V8, both on their chinese firmware and its a matter of downloading the Play Framework, Play Services, Google Account Service and the Playstore itsself as an APK to get a working playstore.
