In line with previous years, Huawei’s smartphone lineup continues to face challenges in global markets due to the ongoing US trade restrictions. The Chinese tech giant, once a prominent player in the international smartphone arena, has seen its availability severely limited outside its home country.
Despite the challenges posed by the US sanctions, Huawei remains committed to its smartphone business and continues to invest in research and development. However, until the trade restrictions are lifted or alternative solutions are found, the company’s global reach and market share in the smartphone industry are likely to remain constrained.
