On January 10th, JD.com and Huawei announced their cooperation and officially launched the development of HarmonyOS native applications.
As early as the release of HarmonyOS 2.0 (HarmonyOS) in 2021, JD.com had already invested technical efforts in exploring the innovative features of HarmonyOS and launched a meta service card that can quickly search for products, expanding the e-commerce shopping scene. JD.com stated that the JD HarmonyOS native app (application) launched this time will revolutionize the service standards of the e-commerce industry and provide consumers with a full scenario "more fast, better and more cost-effective" shopping experience.
JD.com has revealed that the artificial intelligence big model and intent framework based on HarmonyOS can achieve an understanding of user explicit and potential intentions, thereby matching timely services, ensuring continuous service and experience, and bringing continuous, intelligent, and real-time "scene traffic", becoming a new entry point for full scene service distribution. At the same time, the ability of HarmonyOS to develop and deploy on multiple platforms can significantly reduce the cost and workload of JD HarmonyOS's native application development, achieving innovative upgrades on various HarmonyOS ecological terminals such as mobile phones, tablets, smart screens, and car consoles.
Xu Ran, CEO and Executive Director of JD.com Group, stated at the signing ceremony that "JD.com and Huawei have a high degree of compatibility with the consumer group. Based on the innovative capabilities of HarmonyOS, they will bring consumers a brand new all scenario shopping experience. At the same time, the two sides will jointly build artificial intelligence capabilities to achieve innovation in consumer experience."
Huawei Executive Director, Terminal BG CEO, and Chairman of Intelligent Automotive Solutions BU (Business), Yu Chengdong, pointed out, "We will further deepen cooperation and win-win with JD in business models and HarmonyOS ecosystem. By jointly building a native HarmonyOS ecosystem and building artificial intelligence capabilities, we will create differentiated competitive advantages, create more explosive innovative products that surprise consumers, and build an unprecedented and innovative full scenario ecosystem."
