[deleted post]nope, i'm a waiter.. i just happened to notice that a lot of modems are Huawei's and i did some google about them and found out they are actually multibillion company.. just that they are not so much into mobile phones, that's why people doubt them (along with the stigma that they are Chinese company making cheap copies)..

i'm just giving due credits..
troll harder..

              [deleted post]I'm not working for retailer and not even employee of telco industries and I'm still know that huawei is one of the big company in telco industries. Their product like Infrastructure like GSM tower equipments, peripherals like 3G modems, are scattered around the world, used in lots of countries.

                you might not believe its Chinese, fact is everything is made there, from the spoons we use to your fancy iphones... its easy to trash em but give them 10 years and you will be queuing to buy a huawei phone. I say big up!

                              huawei is actually a big company.. i know them because they are the USB modem provider for the telcos here.. the only thing i don't like about the company is the name itself.. it sounds too "China" and people simply don't know that it is actually one of the big players in tech industry..

                              so sorry for being too racist.. that's just what i feel..

                              but, hey, it's still a great company.. just look at this article and you'll see for yourself..

                                Its nice to know that my phone will get updated with everyone else.
                                Just a shame i couldnt say the same for my tablet.

                                      The nice look of ICS is gone, and Samsung applied the same TouchWiz UI from GB, but with ICS icons. But at least with this leak the CyanogenoMod will get the libs neeeded to continue their work on the AOSP rom.
