And it's really nothing wrong with (not) having a "design language" - it gives the company free-range to develop as consumer demand & design trends change...which is annually now. If the Mate X2 concept could be sold in the US, they'd be on the shelves in a month.

It takes a huge amount of effort to develop a family of devices that may not be accepted by consumers. No benefit is taking that kind of financial risk every year. Huawei is highly capable of making some really competitive devices, too bad it got caught up in the US-China political mess.

That's fine if they changed the the look and function as the competitor. Sure they might not admit it that that functionality design is better. But what is different is going to be the price point. If only it had GMS. I would rock it..

As I said repeatedly for years and they keep proving me right, Huawei has no design language, they throw everything at the wall(frequently, ideas already taken by others) and see what sticks.

I suspect that they're just stirring up drama here. I don't believe the Party will allow Huawei to be actually sanctioned for extended periods. When a deal is reached, they'll be playing back from the dead when it was inevitable in the first place.
Though, if we see HiSilicon disbanding the SoC unit and laying off people, we'd know that they're really serious.
Until then.

This is non sense. They should just bring out something like 7000mAh 7.5inch Mate 40X and sell like hot cakes.
