Huawei’s smart speaker will be available outside of China, but not the US
[ad_1] Pricing and a release date aren’t yet available, although the Sound X sells for 1,999 yuan (about $284, or €262) in its homeland.

Google fully explains why its apps aren’t on new Huawei phones
[ad_1] Since last spring, the government’s entity list ban against Huawei (and ZTE) has largely prevented US companies from working with them.

US claims Huawei can secretly access carrier backdoors
[ad_1] Huawei is unique in having this kind of access and doesn’t tell national security agencies, one unnamed official said.

It partly declassified some of those assertions, but those […]
EU won’t unilaterally ban Huawei gear from 5G networks
[ad_1] The Commission asked member nations to implement the guidelines by April 30th, and to provide a report on their implementations by June 30th.

Huawei will use TomTom for maps now that it’s cut off from Google
[ad_1] It’s not shocking that Huawei would forge a partnership like this.
