Huawei Technologies’ consumer business head said the company would launch “disruptive” products next year that could “rewrite the history of the industry”, months after the US-sanctioned Chinese telecommunications giant surprised the world with the launch of its 5G-capable Mate 60 smartphone series.
These products would be “leading, innovative and disruptive”, Richard Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei’s consumer business group and chairman of its intelligent automotive solution business unit, said at the company’s annual fan club event on Saturday, according to Chinese media outlet Securities Times.
He did not elaborate on the nature of those products, the report said. Huawei did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Sunday.

During the event, Yu also said Huawei would release native apps and products based on its self-developed mobile platform HarmonyOS next year, making the firm one of the top operating system operators in China.
Yu’s bold claim came after the company released the Mate 60 handset series, which is powered by the Chinese-made advanced processor Kirin 9000s. It marked Huawei’s return to the 5G smartphone market after US trade sanctions barred the firm from accessing American technology.
