Something I don’t see specified in that article is that the 66 million is for the number of Harmony OS 6 devices (the latest version) according to this Chinese article https://post.m.smzdm.com/p/a95dl2r0/
There are many more Harmony OS devices, but actually, that article says that most of them are still based on Android and only a part of the total Harmony OS smartphones run Harmony OS Next.
From the article:
@DoumiaoNotes analysis points out that among China’s approximately 800 million smartphones, about 150 million are active HarmonyOS devices, corresponding to a 19% market share; however, pure HarmonyOS only accounts for a quarter to a third of these, approximately 40-50 million devices.
user upgrade willingness is constrained by the completeness of application coverage. @HuaweiAndHarmonyOSNotes reminds users that while national-level applications such as WeChat and Alipay have completed deep adaptation, enterprise internal software or less common tools may not yet have a native HarmonyOS version. Users are advised to check whether their daily essential apps have the “native HarmonyOS” label before upgrading.
