China Academy of Telecommunication Research of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology recently called for a national operating system for smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices in order to reduce its dependence on Google Android. Meanwhile, representatives of the Taiwanese mobile phone supply chain believe that begin to create our own operating system is too late. This is caused by the difficulties associated with the need to develop related technologies and forming ecosystems, and to the absence of patents.
To be competitive, the new operating system must have at least three to five years. So even if the Chinese manufacturers, such as Lenovo, Huawei Device, ZTE and Coolpad, as well as providers of Internet services Alibaba and Baidu, will take over the development of now, they can not keep up with the competition.
Instead of the industry consider it appropriate to ask Google to ease restrictions on the use of Android, in particular, allow manufacturers to develop their own versions based on Android. In addition, the state could encourage Chinese software developers and service providers to focus not only on Android, but also on other operating systems such as iOS and Windows Phone.
