Look like the US government finally realizes that Blacklisted Huawei is a mistake and its coming with a lost of big money that Apple can't make up for nor the Huawei simply will vanish without other Chinese oem taking over. I guess US learned the hard way that you simply can't beat numbers

      Android is the one I use for more fun based stuff, social media, texting friends, cameras

      iPhone is work , spreadsheets, etc.

      Which is why both my devices are linked to my Google account, so docs, emails, calendar, are all synced

      Pointless yes, stupid quite possibly, but I like them equally

        AnonD-844232, 16 Nov 2021I know but stubborn apple fans won't install it I couldn't give a poop what device I use , as long as it does its job.
        Admittedly I always hide logos and branding where possible.
        I think some people are just so narrow minded they miss interesting and sometimes amazing possibilities and experiences.

        All for being brand snobs...I've loved my Huawei, Oppo, Sony, Samsung, Google, iPhone, Nokia ,etc all equally because they've all done their jobs.

        I don't really push my phone's , I could probably still get by on my old Samsung S2 or S3 to be truthful.
        I use my current phone A52s so little it easily manages 3 to 4 and half days between charges

          AnonD-844232, 16 Nov 2021I know but stubborn apple fans won't install it I said many Apple users use Google apps

                              people that think they need to stick to one brand are losing out from the wider more enjoable experience

                                What ever happened to Harmony OS?

                                  That's awesome I hope they succeed. They are the best mobile phone makers in the business. Their camera tech was better than every other manufacturer. They can easily beat both Apple, Samsung and Google without even breaking a sweat. Go Huaweeeeiiii!

                                    ok they were not great but they worked good enough.

                                    Now I am back with samsung, I use G apps where needed, so gmail, maps, keep, chrome...but the rest is samsung apps and adobe

                                      These services by Google are much better than competitors and probably no maps can compete with Google Maps

                                        So it will be like how different manufacturers used to manufacture Nexus phones for Google
                                        In this case Huawei will Google?
