The Huawei debacle

For Huawei, this is nothing short of a great victory. They had been stockpiling on key smartphone components from as early as mid-May and by time the ban had hit, they were already ready with their very own Hongmeng OS. The company was getting ready to change the smartphone game and their unflinching attitude is a great example of how to weather unforeseen storms. And weather it they did as all the company really needed to do was wait until a favourable round of trade talks between the US and China.
