I wonder how much of that came from smartphone sales.
They become the number 1 smartphone manufacturer right before the USA banned them from using Google’s softwares, and then disappeared from the charts. I would like to see how much they were able to recover from that in that sector.
They’ve diversified a lot since US tried to kill them off. They make all kinds of mobile devices, run data centres, dabble in cars, they’re a leader in networking infrastructure, and so on.
Yeah my mind was kinda blown when i saw a Huawei car for the first time. I still remember way back when Huawei was first coming out onto the smartphone market in Europe, must be over a decade ago now, i bought my then girlfriend (now wife) a Huawei phone, cause i thought it looked cool - they had a model in pink i thought she’d like - and it had pretty good specs at an affordable price. I could never have imagined how far they would come.
Same, Huawei surviving the attempts by the US to kill it and thriving is a real feel good story. Also love the fact that it’s run cooperatively.
