Recently baidu launches Baidu Yi New Mobile Operating System, it is Google Android looks like,it is Baidu Yi is an Android fork for China, Baidu might be planning on following in Google’s footsteps with an OS, but we didn’t know just how closely. Meet Baidu Yi, a new mobile operating system — built on Android.
While Android’s core functionality (like voice search) has been preserved, Baidu has ripped out most of the key apps and replaced Google’s versions with its own. There’s Yue for eBooks, Baidu-powered maps, and Shen Bian — which offers Google Places-like local recommendations.
Yi’s music app integrates with Baidu’s extremely popular Ting service, which launched earlier this year to positive reviews.
Like Android, Baidu Yi also offers single sign-in, providing easy access to its myriad cloud-powered apps and a mobile backup service.China's largest search engine provider, Baidu (BIDU), demonstrated in Beijing a soon-to-be released mobile operating system called Baidu Yi and Baidu Easy. Baidu Yi is likely to become a top competitor for companies like Apple (AAPL), Google (GOOG), and RIM (RIMM). As Baidu integrates further into the hearts, minds and smart phones of Chinese consumers, it will become that much more difficult for Google to gain market share once Google decides it is time to re-enter the market.
