Tkseah Supercharged May 19, 2019 Share May 19, 2019 Jialat lah.. My wife only recently got a new huawei phone.. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yewheng Twincharged May 20, 2019 Share May 20, 2019 Huawei is such a good phone. Anyway Huawei have their own app store. So it's now up to all individuals that have the app in Google and apple store to whether to also create an app in Huawei app store too. If it happened quickly, I guess there will still have impact, but not to the extend of randering Huawei phone useless. Huawei can also just sell theor phone to Chinese Market too.

Cauldron 6th Gear May 20, 2019 Share May 20, 2019 (edited) Losing access to play store will be the final nail in the coffin, unless u just need to run chinese apps. Or can use the alternate Chinese developed OS which is in the works Edited May 20, 2019 by Cauldron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vratenza Supersonic May 20, 2019 Share May 20, 2019 (edited) So Apple's Iphone and their software not affected by the ban? or not yet? now Iphone in china is more like foreign import status symbol rather than being truly useful for their own internal market's apps.

Lala81 Hypersonic May 20, 2019 Share May 20, 2019 So Apple's Iphone and their software not affected by the ban? or not yet? now Iphone in china is more like foreign import status symbol rather than being truly useful for their own internal market's apps. Foxconn (apple's main subcon) employs close to 1 million people directly or indirectly in china. So not so simpur... And terry gou is running for TW president. And he's more CN friendly. I don't think politically they will target apple directly. Then perhaps ban iphone in china.. Just find an excuse as above 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yewheng Twincharged May 20, 2019 Share May 20, 2019 (edited) https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/amp/business-48330310 Meaning to say, existing Huawei phone user no need to worry anything. Everything will function as per usual. Only thing is that if android have new version update, Huawei will not be able to get it and update to Huawei existing phone users. Minewhile those haven't bought Huawei phone want considering buy one. Buy one now = can't use Google play store and etc already. So those already bought p30 Pro and do not intend to sell off, its actually not that bad. Use for 1 or 2 years by then change new hp.

Jusnel 6th Gear May 20, 2019 Share May 20, 2019 WTH. I hope Huawei will issue announcement on how they will deal with it and any refund policy for those users with hp that are still under warranty. I'm sure Huawei is already getting alot of questions from current users. Many will ask for refunds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff69 Hypersonic May 20, 2019 Share May 20, 2019 How independent can Google be if they follow the instructions of their supreme leader. Truly hope that Huawei comes up with something good for their own OS otherwise it just instilled the AMDK mindset on everyone and we need to either follow them or be bullied around should we decide to stand up again them 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I never use it at all. Hopefully their app store is usuer friendly and is in English. That may give more incentives for developers and or companies to create/have apps in the Huawei app store.
