In the past few years, AppGallery is becoming a popular platform for games as it serves millions of monthly active users with new and existing gaming apps. Up until today, AppGallery now lists games from some leading titles such as PUBG Mobile, Mobile legends, Free Fire, State of Survival, and more. Hence, Huawei continues to work on the games section for AppGallery users to enrich its user engagement.

“Games developers are finding it increasingly difficult to reach new audiences. The major challenge is that customer acquisition cost has increased significantly over the years due to market saturation and inflated pricing. That’s why alternative app platforms such as AppGallery are emerging and playing their part to provide developers with improved revenue-generating opportunities,” said Jaime Gonzalo”.

Currently, 99.9% of apps downloaded via the leading app distribution platforms are losing users monthly, pushing the costs of retention higher and higher.

Gonzalo pointed out that AppGallery currently has 580 million global monthly active users, 45 million of which are in Europe. Outside China, AppGallery has increased in-app revenue by 3x year-on-year, casual game growth has increased by 20x over the same period, and monthly ad revenue for developers has doubled.

“We have a high spending audience,” Gonzalo told the Pocket Gamer audience. “In countries like Germany the ARPPU is $200, in the UK the average is $159 while in Poland it is $100, and this is coupled with very low developer effort. Existing Android games can be ready to onboard to AppGallery in just a few minutes. We also support every game with solutions, promotions, and developer kits, which accelerate distribution and boost revenue numbers.”

Huawei has been in the middle of the U.S. –  China trade war for a long time but in the middle of these scenarios comes a company named – Huawei. It has been sanctioned by the U.S. Commerce Department under the Entity List.

This prohibits the company from accessing tech made in the U.S. or made by U.S. companies. This includes both software and hardware services as well as devices.

GMS:

The lack of GMS had a big impact on Huawei’s smartphone sales in the global market, as it’s not required in the home ground (China). Instead, HarmonyOS is doing pretty great on both new and old devices in the Chinese market.

However, the global Huawei users have shifted to other smartphones such as iPhone or Samsung, or any other Chinese phone makers.

Still, the big question is whether Huawei needs Google Mobile Services and do you want it to bring back Google apps on smartphones.

In the current context, Huawei should get it back because its consumer base is still not ‘fully’ ready to consume Huawei Mobile Services (HMS). And the company could enrich the consumer base by using both sides by side because Android allows it to do so.

Still, the road to getting back to the GMS is not easy and with the recent changes in U.S. trade policy, there’s still some hope that Huawei could once again access this software suite on new devices.

But, nothing is certain and we will have to keep on waiting for any inputs that come into this matter.

Until then, you can participate in the poll below and give your opinion on whether should Huawei bring back Google Mobile apps or not.

Do you want Huawei to return to Google apps?

The post Do you want Huawei to bring back Google apps: Poll appeared first on Huawei Central.

The report says that Huawei could access American-made technologies if it agrees to follow U.S. commerce-made guidelines. The commerce department has come up with these new guidelines in the name of “Standards”.

However, we need to understand that commerce has not revealed any details about the allowed technologies. Yet, it does mention that these include both hardware and software stuff.

GMS?

It has various sections, for example, the chipset precision and other related software but it may also consist of Google Mobile Services (GMS). Once again, there are no specifics revealed on the key technologies shared under these new standards.

Google Mobile Services or GMS is a proprietary suite of services for Android smartphones. Different OEMs certify their models via GMS and install Google apps as bloatware or out-of-the-box Google apps.

What really happened?

In 2019, Huawei has been placed under the U.S. Entity List, which bars the firm from accessing U.S.-based or made products. These impact the product manufacturing mostly, the smartphones

The lack of the required chipset and ousting of GMS caused big in Huawei’s smartphone market growth. Instead, the company has to face a big dip in the industry.

Meanwhile, Huawei developed a new GMS rival – AppGallery for its global smartphones as Huawei Mobile Services (HMS). It has AppGallery, Huawei’s app distribution platform, and a bunch of other mobile apps that accompany with AppGallery. These are Petal Seach, Assitant, Celia AI voice, Petal Clip, Petal Keyboard, and more.

Still, the return of GMS could do the trick for your Huawei smartphone and it could run alongside HMS without any issues. That way, Huawei consumers could get a 2X user experience for sure.

The interesting part of the story is that the LeTV Y2 Pro is powered by Huawei Mobile Services (HMS) and since it has Huawei’s software system in China, it’s a big hand that’s supported by a large ecosystem from the Chinese tech giant.

The LeTV Y2 Pro comes in three color options Black, Blue, and Orange, and has three variants – 4GB+32GB, 4GB+128GB, and 6GB+256GB, priced at 599 yuan, 799 yuan, and 999 yuan respectively.

This cheap interpretation of the iPhone 13 Pro is marketed with the Android 11 operating system and Huawei HMS core cloud services as well as mobile applications, also, the LeTV Y2 Pro features a triple rear camera, fingerprint unlocks, AI features, and frosted glass back, and an Octa-core processor.

That’s not the end guys, this new LeTV phone sports a 6.5-inch display with a number of new smart features offered by the Le OS 9.1. It packs a 4000mAh battery with dual sim card support. Currently, the phone is not ready to ship for the global market but it will only be released in the Chinese market.

Y1 Pro:

A few months ago, LeTv launched the Y1 Pro, which was a copy of the standard iPhone 13 with a number of stripped capabilities. You can call it just another version of the iPhone 13 (i am serious about that) because it features a 6.5-inch 1560 x 720 LCD resolution display with a notch on the head, it supports face recognition, a 4G processor, as well as a 4000 mAh battery that supports 10W charging.

Conclusion:

Jokes aside, LeTV has given a good restart to its mobile business, and starting from the entry-level phones could be a better choice for this Chinese phone maker.
