Samsung deepens Android bonds while Xiaomi ventures into MiOS territory, inspired by HarmonyOS!
Chinese smartphone vendors are going independent in terms of mobile operating systems. While Huawei manages to deploy HarmonyOS as a de-Androided OS, Xiaomi is about to enter MiOS territory. Meanwhile, Samsung continues to deepen its bonds with Android and Google.
Reputed leaker IceUniverse claims that Xiaomi will introduce a self-developed operating system – MiOS. It’s apparently inspired by the HarmonyOS approach, at least to impress the government of China. Besides, Vivo is preparing to debut its own research and development system.

HarmonyOS is limited to China, and the same is rumored for MiOS. Xiaomi may keep the MiOS limited to Chinese units, while the MIUI skin, powered by Android will be available for Global consumers. MiOS might remove Android in favor of developing an in-house operating system.
It should be an achievement for local brands in China, but they are well aware of the importance of Google services in the global market. Android is a widespread operating system, and it’s tough to replace it with an in-house OS, which would lack Google Mobile Services.
Samsung, the world’s biggest smartphone maker, has close ties with Google. Both companies also share technology as part of cementing the relationship. Galaxy’s One UI skin is powered by Android and well-optimized with Google services to deliver a great user experience.
