EE, 28 Nov 2019Mi and Oneplus offer mostly consumer products while Huawei ... moreYa, but they must have support for the same in software as well.

For example, to spy on a user in US, they can't use a secret radio frequency no one will detect. They will obviously use the internet, which can be easily detected.
Take a IP Recording software which records what all IP's the data is being sent to.

So, on a whole, even hardware domination can't get them anywhere. Internet is all they have to use anyways.

And the way US has behaved, it seems its just internal fears and "Holier than Thou" approach to rest of the world, than anything else. They don't quite have a proof.

    Samath N8 808 owner, 28 Nov 2019What different are the Chinese doing from the US, just let ... moreMi and Oneplus offer mostly consumer products while Huawei also supplies communications hardware for networks. If true, it's easier for them to spy as they also have access to the communications backbone.

      I'mPhone, 28 Nov 2019Apple devices are still the most reliable and has the least... moreWhat different are the Chinese doing from the US, just let me know this.

      Is it the only difference that, US Federal agencies keep a private company between us and them? Is it?

      And how is Mi and Oneplus different since they too have started maintaining accounts for every content on the phone?

        I'mPhone, 28 Nov 2019Apple devices are still the most reliable and has the least... moreIgnoring the NSA and other data backdoors for them and partners i imagine... If you believe that Apple don't trade your data at some level, you must be really blind. But you care outside them so maybe if you care of your privacy you should watch and keep an eye on Apple themselves.

              I do not know whats going on, but "Security" is for sure a long fatched pretex.

                I'mPhone, 28 Nov 2019Apple devices are still the most reliable and has the least... moreHuawei respects Money and the Chinese Communist Party.
                ...so they will proceed doing whatever is demanded of them, they don't particularly care for security, privacy, or consumer-friendly. We still need them in the market to boost competition, but "constructive competition" and NOT "destructive competition".

                And I'm having lower and lower hopes each day from the USA, Europe, and China when it comes to progression in consumer technology.

                PS: The Huawei Mate 30 Pro review is up on Anandtech, and their tests and conclusions were quite different to the one by GSMArena, its worth the read.

                  Apple devices are still the most reliable and has the least security and privacy concern (does not mean that there are zero issues with them). Huawelp needs to respect other users by removing their spyware
