Huawei Publicly Retracts Plans To Release Dual-OS Android/Windows Device Huawei recently shared plans to release a dual-OS Android/Windows devicein the US come Q2 of this year. Now, the company has publically stepped back from those words. It didnt provide an explanation, but it did emphasize its open approach towards mobile operating systems and a desire to provide a range of choices for consumers. Most of the Huaweis handsets will continue to run Android, and while Windows Phone still isnt off the table completely, the two platforms wont play along anytime soon. This decision follows a Wall Street Journal report that Google and Microsoft both oppose this whole dual-OS thing. As a result, Asus reportedly canceled plans to release the Transformer Book Duet. In addition, the company will remove its Transformer AIO all-in-one desktopfrom the market. This news doesnt come as too much of a surprise, but that doesnt make it any less frustrating for consumers who, dagnabbit, just want to run two operating systems from one device.
