    Anonymous, 13 Mar 2024Huawei employee, and their family (being forced).🤣You could somewhat say that, but remember the Chinese people knew that one of their most popular and important brands are being targeted by jealousy and protectionism, so they will support Huawei as supporting local brands can boost their own economy.

    Another is Huawei outside China, their key markets are: Asia, Europe, Africa and South America but again Huawei have a lesser presence internationally due to the lack of Google Services but in China Huawei is being supported by Chinese because of nationalism, economy and the fact that the Chinese does not need google.

      Anonymous, 13 Mar 2024Using a flagship with latest 7nm-10nm "flagship" ... moreSo the logic for you is that smaller transistor = more performance, so a Snapdragon 778g is more powerful than a Snapdragon 865 because the 865 is a 7nm and the 778g is a 6nm?

      So who is the joke? Of course it's you

      Let me also remind you that the Kirin 9000s, a 7nm chipset is more powerful than a snapdragon 7 gen 1 and 7s gen 2, and what are the transistor sizes of those 2? 4nm. According to their benchmarks the kirin 9000s a 7nm scores almost 900k, matching the power of the Snapdragon 888 plus, you could look it for yourself "smart guy".


      One more thing, smaller transistor size means smaller power consumption, but according to nanoreview the kirin 9000s, a 7nm chipset consumes 1 watt less than the Snapdragon 888 plus. So does the transistor size matter anymore? It does, but it doesn't mean that smaller transistor sizes is better. So do some research before trying to comment so you would not end up to be a joke.


      But at least the kirin 9000s have a low stability score, I could give you that.

                          Nice joke. I appreciate that😂👍

                            yalim, 12 Mar 2024who buys any huawei phone nowadays?From my observations of those around me I think their main class of consumer at least for their flagship phones and foldables is the highly educated professional classes in the larger first tier and new first tier cities in China. Another major group would be successful business people who run their own businesses and are very well off. Basically the brand is very popular amongst wealthier people in China
