    Anonymous, 19 Jul 2023Why was Huawei so dependent in US 5G chips in the frist pla... moreTo the first question: Huawei actually designed their own 5G-capable chips some years ago but they had to look to TSMC to manufacture it for them. The US prevented TSMC from supplying Huawei so Huawei had to look for other ways to get 5G chips. They (probably) wanted to get them from Qualcomm, but they have (so far) been unable to.

    To the second question: It is reported that Huawei has the largest number of 5G-related patents. However, this does not mean they have a sufficient number of patents (that they can actually make use of) for a particular 5G solution. This means they may have to go to another company to negotiate a licensing agreement or purchase a part from them.

        Anonymous, 14 Jul 2023All I can say an Android phone with NO Google Spy Services ... moreAgree. Google (GMS) free phones have better battery and thermal management. If I'm not using Huawei phones I would definitely de-Google my phone.
        This being said, GMS is not Samsung's biggest problems. They are going cheap on midrangers and driving costumers away. I prefer many Samsung products over competition, smartphones are definitely not among these.

          Why was Huawei so dependent in US 5G chips in the frist place, anyway?
          Dind't they own a lot of 5G patents and tehnologies? That's what they brag a lot about.

                Anonymous, 13 Jul 2023How?

But they also done great lengths to develop their own technologies

                  Anonymous, 13 Jul 2023You got it wrong Huawei base station is secure Even UK ad... moreHuawei is a secure company, the UK scanned their phones and their software many times, they have teardown their phones bit by bit and scanned their OS and softwares multiple times and still did not find any suspecting detail that will support the US claims. It is that the US use its power to pursue other countries to stop supplying things to China and most specially to Huawei just to keep their own companies afloat most specially apple.

                    Furkan , 13 Jul 2023Huawei and Oneplus will be close soon wait and seeNo, it will not oneplus phones are flagship killers and it is very sad that they let Oppo incorperate their crappy sht Color OS to the oxygen OS, and as for Huawei, it will not shutdown like LG did on their smartphone business, as Huawei is very popular in and out of China because they have stablished themselves before they were targeted by politics, so maybe start hoping again.

                      Anonymous, 12 Jul 2023I don't think you understand what revenue is?It is a great achievement, considering that your company is being targeted by the USA, not so many countries survived being targeted by the USA

                          Anonymous, 12 Jul 2023One that used to have 75% of their sales in China while the... morethe ban is always not about spying, if this is about spying then the United states could simply remove Huawei from their country and still do business with them which in turn would benefit both of the countries, so why would ban Huawei? It is pretty obvious it is not about spying, just remember Huawei was banned 1 month after it has surpassed Apple on Smartphone sales, and why the F does the United States is so mad at Huawei, come on America is the greatest spy in the world and they are mad if others are playing their own game? Hegemony as its finest, trying their best to get their uninnovative and overpriced apple afloat.

                                Anonymous, 12 Jul 2023Please, we need competition to Apple and Samsung.That is the very exact reason why Huawei was banned in the first place, a competitions in which the west (Apple) is lossing and one way to prevent that loss is of course to use dirty tricks, Huawei is not the first company to be a victim of this tactics

                                      FYI the the iPhone 13 Pro Max's 5G chip has slower network speeds when compared to the Mate 50 Pro's 4G chip.

                                      The only thing that the US can do is ban other country's tech because they can't build their own version.
