What is the price point? Exactly how much cheaper is Huawei vs. Nokia/Ericsson?
Some rumors say that Huawei has 4,000 software engineers that they can throw at a problem, like their current goal to replace Google services.
If an average software engineer in China makes $10,000 USD, vs. an average software engineer at Google making $160,000 USD. Then Huawei will spend $40 million USD, vs. Google spending $640 million USD.
That’s a pretty significant difference. Huawei’s operating cost is 6% of Google’s.
Huawei can afford to throw a lot of human brain power at solving an engineering problem. And especially when a lot of Chinese companies are operating in start-up mode and working 60+ hours a week.
