Huawei unveils desktop PC made entirely with Chinese-manufactured components
Huawei says its Qingyun HM650 is a desktop PC built with components manufactured in China, a claim that could signal a shift towards domestic suppliers in a major market. The launch matters to Intel, AMD and Qualcomm because China’s government is directing public bodies to replace Windows and Intel-based computers with local alternatives.
The HM650 uses Huawei’s ten-core, 20-thread Kirin X90 processor, running at 2.3 GHz, and an enterprise version of HarmonyOS. One government agency has reportedly ordered 600 machines. Huawei says all components were made in China, but it is unclear whether they were also designed there, as foreign companies continue to manufacture parts in the country.
In short
- Huawei says the Qingyun HM650 uses components made in China.
- A government agency has reportedly ordered 600 PCs.
- The components’ design origins remain unclear.
