A Google Assistant rival has come caleed "CELIA" from none other than you know "HUAWEI"
Huawei introducing CELIA
Huawei will roll out the new digital assistant to its phones through an OTA update. However, the company hasn’t shared a specific timeline for that.

The assistant will respond to the wake-up phrase “Hey, Celia” and users will be able to bring it up by pressing and holding the power button on their phones for one second.
Huawei first mentioned Celia last year. At the time, Alex Huang, Director of Huawei’s consumer division in France, had told French media outlets that Celia is the global version of its existing personal assistant in China called Xiaoyi. The Chinese version of the assistant is currently used in Huawei’s AI Cube smart speaker as well as on the phones it sells in China.
Remember, Huawei is still subject to the US trade ban which bars it from doing business with many American companies. This is the reason Huawei phones lack the all-important Google Mobile Services, including things like the Google Assistant.
