As the united states has barred Huawei from the country and prevented it from dealing with US corporations such as Google, the Chinese smartphone and telecom products maker is set release a the Honor 9X Pro Android-based mobile without the Google suite.

The business claims to have attracted 1 million iphone app designers for Huawei AppGallery.
"Honor 9X Pro is the primary Honor smartphone which will be independent of Google Play store and will feature Huawei’s AppGallery. We introduced the smartphone at a worldwide livestream event last month and are all set to bring these devices to India in the month-end," Peng, said.
Honor will continue working with the Android operating system, which can be an open source platform and free for just about any company to work with as well seeing as develop their own os's.
AMERICA government barred its companies from supplying software and hardware to Huawei in May last year. However, it has been extending a temporary licence to provide restricted product or service to the Chinese telecom apparatus major.
Huawei, along with Honor, gets the second highest market show immediately after South Korean technology huge Samsung in telecom components.
Peng said that Huawei is found in talks with Indian corporations as well to persuade them to change to its AppGallery rather than Google’s Play Retail outlet, and that many of the frequently used apps have previously come on board.
When asked about Honor's intend to attract users of leading social mass media apps, specifically US-based Facebook and WhatsApp, Peng said virtually all third-party apps offer an open origin to download the mobile version and they are already available for quick download on virtually any Android phone.
Peng said that Honor would prefer to work with Google, however the company will continue steadily to expand Huawei Cell Services (HMS) as an alternate option.
