Smartphone and Cellphone Wars

[LancerA174A]

So an officemate's Galaxy A50 was sent to a service center when it overheated and died, SC says motherboard was replaced but when she got it back the in-display fingerprint scanner doesn't work. Hassle naman, yung gas at toll pa pabalik.

I had a similar experience with Sony, minsan mas okay pa yata sa reputable third party magpagawa. Yung previous phone ko na grey market gang ngayon ok pa naman.

Pati Honor brand affected...

Huawei Technologies Co Ltd will immediately lose access to updates to the Android operating system, and the next version of its smartphones outside of China will also lose access to popular applications and services including the Google Play Store and Gmail app,” Reuters noted.

But the tables have turned. Huawei 5G solutions are better and cheaper than its western counterparts like nokia and ericsson. Nadamay sa trade war ni Trump.

I guess 5g will be deployed slowly on this developed countries. [emoji23]
Truth is, US still "has" influence. Even in AU, Huawei 5g is banned. So yes, Huawei are better and cheaper atm but until when?
On 2nd thought, Huawei can dump all their resources to 3rd world countries and make them more developed thereby nullyfying the effects. But for ow, they would probabaly be on a loss for years.

We could see the rebirth of the old transmission companies and/or a new one will come by.

Regarding Google blocking Huawei, they can easily develop an OS on their own, but that means, they are isolating themselves from the current popular OS'es for phones. Will the new Huawei OS become popular? Time will tell

They sort of did: Huawei has apparently been developing a secret mobile OS for six years

I think their OS, if it does go mainstream, will be for mainland China users only.

Before they decide to use it and go up against Google and Apple, they should take a page out of another piece of tech history.... Microsoft, in all their might, hardly made a dent in the mobile market share with their Windows Mobile OS running on Nokia hardware, which caused them to give up on it and went to partner with Google/Android instead.

Agree on your statement.
MS has the name while Huawei's name is already contreversial.

Sending this through on a huawei smartphone that's on its last legs... [emoji23]

Huawei only lost access to Google Play... They can still make devices running Android as it's Open Source, but Google Play will need to be side loaded.

Just like all Android devices sold in China. No Google Play, no GMAIL, no Google Maps and no Chrome

And this is only applicable to future devices... Existing devices (as long as you bought it outside China) are not affected.

Remember the Nokia X?

They will also lose access to Android security updates/fixes.

If this ban lets on, it seems that all upcoming Huawei devices will essentially become generic Android devices, not sanctioned by Google.

devices "are" just the tip of the iceberg. its the infra that pose a huge security threat to the US.

AOSP will get updated... Same reason 3rd party ROMs get security updates.

Only question is will Huawei update them

Huawei is very lousy on their updates.
Based on exp.

Yes. Nauna na yung ban sa telco/carrier equipment ng Huawei sa US.

Huawei has been shady before. They function like a global company but they behave like a small time Chinese company. They can probably get away with it if they're just marketing their stuff in China. But in the global stage, there are legislations and international policies they need to comply with. I guess their alleged dealings with Iran broke the camel's back.

Intel and Qualcomm joined Google. Not that will affect huawei though. I'm actually more interested on how China will retaliate.

Intel, Qualcomm join Google in cutting off business with Huawei
