            But Huawei is the only phone company try to tell the world they are the best and a lot of people really believe their tech 100% from their own R&D.

            Compare it with Xiaomi how they handle their brand name, not that high profile like them.

          When it comes to 5G technology they're meant to be superior, at least from recent news. There was the theory that they (Aus) don't want 5G here to be as fast as possible so it doesn't crap all over the NBN

          They are 1.5 years ahead of their competitors so who are they stealing from? Some other company in the future? Please don't assume that just because they're Chinese that they can't innovate.

          The trade war has everything to do with USA maintaining their superpower status alone. This trade war is their attempt to slow down China's rise.

      if the ban continues, Huawei should still be able to roll out updates - the updates will just be delayed, since Huawei will only get open source builds when they're publicly released, instead of getting early partner builds.

      But I’m sure they’ll be fine sooner or later

    In the end, everyone wants to listen to what they want to listen, everyone wants to believe what they want to believe. I am not too worry about huawei, actually the people inside the "great firewall" is using far more sophisticated local mobile app and sometimes I feel a bit shame that I am still using google apps with such a limited function. In china you don't even need your wallet for your eveyday life. At least Huawei will not die by just losing the overseas market now and they can easily create their own eco-system and chips (probably not on par with the US chips for now because they only have permanent access to ARM V8) and start from the local market with huge population support. I think huawei's new system will still based on android open source portion and create a "chinese google" on top of it. But at the end of the day they will be independent in a few years with either ARM, google, etc…

    Trump government has playing a bit further this time, at least he should use other more solid grounds to ban huawei. Remember with the world's 2nd largest economy sometimes you cannot just show your super power. China has been up and down to the bottom several times in the long past and the only thing is they will not compromise to the super power.

    Google and Huawei both confirmed that existing device will have access to Google service. If the tech cold war continues, maybe they will not get android Q anytime soon. but it's funny to point out that LG G7 and V30 (1y old) are still stacked with Android 8.0 and only God knows when will they get android Q. Yet they are in Ozbargain on a weekly basis and no one seems to care.

      Do you really not see the difference between the Huawei situation and LG?

      Here let me explain, Huawei = banned from Google updates indefinitely.
      LG = lazy and may still receive Google updates.

      You honestly have to be ignorant or stupid to buy a $1300 Huawei phone at this point. Im actually surprised they're not half price right now.

      • NotAnAudiophile on 24/05/2019 - 22:48

        I'd be willing to bet retailers are negotiating returns with Huawei right now.

      • ycat on 24/05/2019 - 22:56
        +4

        First, it is banned indefinitely for now. But if China and US can make a deal, the ban can be lifted at anytime (not impossible)

        Second. it is true that LG is just lazy. But for the people who brought G7 in 2018 at $1000+ and are still using android 8.0, what is the difference between 'have the opportunity for the latest OS' and 'banned indefinitely? Considering the money those people want to put on a phone, it is likely that by the time they switch to a new phone, their G7 are still be running on Android 8.0.

        from my point of view, If P30 drops to sub $800, I think it will be a good pick for specs alone despite knowing it may be on android 9.0 forever.

          Unlikely they make a deal anytime soon. China decided to undo months of negotiations and is riding on Trump to lose the 2020 elections and is hoping the next president will prop a new deal. They are buying time. If you think Xi will go back on the "western imperialist looking to dominate China" propaganda back home, think again. You know more than anyone how that will turn out.

      plus most people know about the 12m Telstra deal,$55/m with port in credit for 12m means even you sell the p30 for $660,you get a free plan(the $200 Huawei bonus gift card pays the $199 upfront cost)

Any promising start-up will be brought by US giants in free markets except for China, which the gov subside their tech firms and will block the sell). it is more likely that the AI overlord will destroy its creator though.

    OnePlus 7 pro just got released and you can get it for 1-1.1k.

    This is still 1.3-1.4k even though the ban is gonna happen. I get its camera is good, but the other phones' cameras are still pretty good and I can't see how that price difference can be justified.

    OMG. Let's put things in a nutshell.

    Huawei is being used as a bargaining chip in the trade war. Trump, once again, declared that himself today, that Huawei is on the table for trade war negotiations. Before this, he didn't use the Huawei card (don't forget about that female Huawei exec still in Canada), but since China complained it should be 50/50 and Trump said before it will never be 50/50, he has now bought in the Huawai bargaining chip and has now gone, well look, now I'll give you Huawei back and it will be 50/50 (theoretically, but now he has even more leverage though it is dirty leverage that he didn't want to use before).

    Bear in mind this is the world of politics and is multifaceted. You now also have Canada involved who is holding the Huawei exec but her extradition could take years, so trump couldn't use that in any meaningful way timewise. By pushing back the canada tariffs he may be able to expediate things within the law, but it will still take a long time. But he has given his farmers a little bit of a break with a payout and also removing taxes with canada and some other country so his farmers won't be that pissed off.

    This is all a media game and mind/perception game as technically they have given China 3 months to sort out a trade deal with the US before it becomes permanent damage. Trump is a business man and doesn't want to permanently damage Huawei only injure it as he/his administration knows that Huawei's demise would bring down or at least slow down the sector whilst making Google, Apple and the USA hugely unpopular. Huawei has an immense fanclub in Europe and Asia. THey are not big in Australia and the USA.

    So while the media, stockmarkets and us peasants are rambling on, this is essentially a large media coverage bargaining chip to give China a 3 month deadline to do something. Trump at the same time is pretty much at war with the rest of the world and also has huge internal pressures at the same time. He is just being trump and his personality profile. He is just doing what a typical business person would do. Unfortunately this doesn't play well with the chinese government who are all about face and have a culture/people that have been through 5000 years of shitty wars and politics and policies - do you think they would give up so easily in a trade war? China's answer is essentially F U.

      Well, I've rarely seen such a complete misunderstanding of this issue. Voda and BT have stopped bundling Huawei in the UK and EU, so sales have collapsed there. More importantly, there's a ban on carriers installing their 5g exchanges. It's about security, not trade wars. Huawei is the tech spying arm of the Chinese government, not targetting the likes of me, but targetting government and military traffic.

        but there is literally no evidence

          Except for all the evidence that USA gave to UK and EU.

        EU has many evidences of Cisco's backdoors, do you wanna see? Just google it.

          Has that got anything to do with Huawei spying?

    I ran a search on our very own second hand dealers and they are accepting p30 pro 256gb at $400.

    If the market on Huawei phones really tanks, I am gonna be more than happy to swoop in and get a flagship phone for pennies on the pound.

    As far as the locked bootloader goes - is there any chance this can change? If you can load custom roms onto these phones I can see it going fairly well for everyone involved on the second hand market.

    I know we all have an opinion on the matter, but just going to put this out there to give everyone some prospective:

    This trade war and bans are puerile bickerings. I for one, welcome our new AI overlord. Chinese or google.

    Why are people saying Huawei phone's won't get updates in the future?

    Andoid is open source. OPEN SOURCE. Yes it might be delayed by a few months, but saying they won't get updates is downright incorrect.

    The only tricky part is google services and apps. Here's the kicker though, phones currently on shelves and in circulation have google services and apps installed and will continue to receive updates in the future. Gooogle, Android and Huawei has all confirmed this.

    Its only new devices which haven't been built yet that will be affected.

    I honestly don't see a problem getting a new Huawei phone and to be honest, the sooner the better so you can ensure you get one with working google services.

    Wow people still buying these…. :)

      depends on the price.if there's no better choice for better price,why not?
      I bought one,but not at this price,
      mainly for the camera,there's no comparison when it comes to night shot.
