An intriguing thing about Huawei is that even after being cut off from Google, cut off from TSMC, cut off from any 5G phone SOC from any supplier, they still keep on developing and marketing towards the European consumer market.
This must be extremely expensive, and there is no way they are making money here, at least for the foreseeable future.
