    Given that Huawei has been eating Apple’s market share in China, I’d say they’re already upstaging them.

      Sure, but is that due to a better product, cheaper product or a better political landscape?

      I am leaning on the latter two options.

        I mean we’re now at the point where there really isn’t much difference between phones hardware wise, and Huawei is indeed far cheaper than the iPhone https://versus.com/en/apple-iphone-15-pro-vs-huawei-mate-60-pro

        Another big factor is that the app ecosystem centres on meta apps like wechat that have a lot of combined functionality. That makes the actual underlying OS less important to the user since they do everything in the app anyway.

        For all its faults (and there are many), Huawei continually features some of best phone cameras available worldwide.
