Processor, system and certification
The HM650 is aimed first at companies and public bodies. It is built on the Kirin X90 processor and runs HarmonyOS Enterprise Edition. The Kirin X90 was designed by Huawei and combines ten CPU cores with integrated graphics. The company also points to coordination between hardware and software and to memory management functions built into HarmonyOS.
Huawei states that the certification it obtained confirms 100% domestic components, from the processor to the memory modules. The exact scope of that certification has not been disclosed publicly. It therefore does not follow that every process, tool and technology in the production chain is also Chinese.
What remains unverified
A proprietary architecture does not by itself show that performance matches the most advanced processors on the market. Such a comparison requires independent tests, especially on professional tasks and demanding workloads, and none are cited in the report larazon.es

The operating system is a second open question. HarmonyOS is positioned as an alternative to Windows and is meant to run across computers, tablets, phones and other devices, sharing applications, data and services. Replacing an operating system means more than installing another one: it requires developing programs, attracting software developers and ensuring compatibility with the tools that companies and users already rely on.
The HM650 is the desktop step in Huawei's effort to cover processors, operating system and devices with its own products. Prior steps listed in the report include processors and phones, then operating systems and networks. The report does not claim that the company has achieved full technological independence.
