Man i am aware of this but same way as USA banned Huawei China can ban google.
Then people will have no other choice just to swap to Huawei or use button phones as Nokia with their KAIos.
My delusion looks real this way.
I really dont think president of china mr. Xi Jinping will let USA to jump over his head for long. We have a new cold war but in this case China will win because their workforce is much bigger than US have and therir labourers are a lot cheaper.
Just imagination of how much can Apple cost made within borders of USA where basic labourer earns between 12-14 dollars per hour makes my forehead sweaty.
In this case even old Iphone 4 can cost more than brand new XS Max with most disk space.

I could have told him that! A lot of developers were already in deep working on Android app development. In turn, they destroyed Nokia in the process!

Why do you think people in India buy your beloved Redmi? Because of the lower price not because they want exactly.
Huawei wont do sub $150 devices, because they dont bring profits. This is why Apple dont do same and earn more per unit than all other brands that keep fighting for sales while they dont grow profits.
Microsoft is much more than Huawei and failed, despite being biggest success with computers OS.

Most phones have less than 110cm2 of screen.

The phones were very bad, except the 950.
No evencounting the poor app store.

Can't blame him for not seeing tomorrow but laughing at someone always cost you deep. He thought that it would be like beating Mac back in those days but time always changes and apple should thanks Google for beating Windows which cleared the way for Apple later on

It would be crazy for them to even think about closing .... meanwhile some companies are already thinking to leave and go to India for the manufacture.
Do you know what would happen if Top enterprises decide to leave china for manufacturing ?

Poor hardware implementation after Lumia930 models is the reason both consumers and devs lost interest in Microsoft phones. Nobody wanted SD810/808/200/212 ETC.

Window phone was simply a bad operating system. Of course one of the main issues were that they were late. But another issue was that Windows mobile was simply bad. These awful tiles. I really hated them. Awful design.

Come on. There's almost nothing known about their OS. And yet you are making up your own speculations on its success. I'm betting you must be a very successful investor in that case...

Well windows phone as it was it never worked and it never had chance to work because of lack of updates and OS which missing tons of interesting features and mostly a fully grown shop loaded with apps for free.
In this case Huawei going to be succesfull.
Just to complete my research China and India have 1/3 of global population.
If most of people switch to Huawei and their OS due to a china ban to USA companies like google and apple will loose a big time.
If a muôti-trillion company like google or apple loose 30%-40% of their income then i am sorry for mr. orange greasy man and how the company as google and apple will trwat him and his famous and legendary government.
Wish you good luck dealing with google and apple mr. Trump.
Haha
