        I'm not sure what to expect from a 12nm Huawei 5G modem in 2023, but I'm sure it will atleast serve the purpose. This was always going to be the result of the Entity List restrictions on Chinese tech companies. They would have to solve the problems sooner than later. It essentially accelerates the process of what our government is trying to avoid while providing some benefits to American companies in the short term. At some point SMIC will officially break 7nm and things will progress rapidly from there.

But more specifically the P40 was an amazing looking phone. I wanted to buy one, but paying $600+ to import a phone that can't run GApps isn't exactly my cup of tea. They never dropped in price as much as I had hoped.

I have heard these kinds of allegations, but have never seen any solid proof of this spying. Always something to the effect of, Huawei COULD be used to spy. I'm a reasonable person so if I see some solid proof of spying from Huawei and some action taken against a private individual as a result of it, I would probably avoid anything Huawei for life. But so far, it's all just hearsay.

                Huawei lost 5g because US sanction so TSMC cant manufacture Kirin Chip for huawei.

                  I though without hauwei there ain't any 5g phone in the world. Why their phone still on 4g?

                    On one hand you are right things might get better.
                    On other hand if dreams of Nicola Tesla which invented device capable to store electricity from bad weather like lightnings and wanted to give free electricity to world but been obliterated and several times robbed by people who loves to earn on us huge ammounts of money.

                    Same goes for Stanley Meyer which in 70s invented an engine capable to run 10 000 miles on a single liter of ordinary water and several other sciencist with simmilar inventions which would make uber rich people uber poor because they are fueled with greed even knowing the fact they will take no single penny to afterlife.

                    We all should have a better life but as long as money make good pawns and moderns slaves we are nothing but a minority to said people known as grey eminences.

                      Anonymous, 12 Jul 2023Please, we need competition to Apple and Samsung.Man Huawei bnever had competition because everything they did they did better than said two brands.
                      Huawei were always excellent with cameras even they arent Leica anymore. They were excellent with Kirin chips and many else.
                      All their phones were best of best at the price range.
                      Even now unlike other flagships from other brands Huawei P60 pro for example have support for Micro SD cards comes with a charger in box and several other accesories.

                        Glad Huawei never give up unlike LG for example.

                          Even exynos was better than now before X cores.

                            Anonymous, 12 Jul 2023I don't think you understand what revenue is?Every cent earned by any company before expenses and taxes.
                            By selling products, offering services or through royalties of tech licensing.

                            Sales of ipads/iphones/official accessories generate near 200 billion dollars per year. Samsung Mobile does not even reach 80 billion. Let alone huawei that was even below.

                            BBK brands together are behind samsubg, despite higher volume of products sold.

                            While other brag about selling 80-100 million devices below $350, the best seller on Earth is 14 Pro Max that only in USA costs less than $1250 for base 128GB.

                            Selling 40-50 million units of $1100-2200 phone is better than selling same amount of $200-250 phones

                                        As always, wumaos celebrating about the comeback of the king of spying.

                                        Why is Huawei so praised is something I will never understand. They were never cheap, nor top quality.

                                        They just used the same marketing tactics as Apple.
                                        All their midranges were terrible and forgettable, and they were the first ones to go into the "2 flagships + a lite flagship" tactic since the P20.

                                        People say "It standed against Apple & Samsung duopoly", and yeah, easy to do that when you have tight connections with the CCP government. Thats like saying the NSA has the upper hand in security &
                                        privacy stuff lololol.

                                        Adding to all that: it was never popular in India for some reason. So it seems most people celebrating their return are from mainland China or Europe (as if Europe didnt have enough chinese brands at hand already)
