Duufaan Posted March 22, 2018 Best Buy won’t sell Huawei phones anymore Best Buy will no longer sell Huawei’s phones, according to a pair of reports from CNET and Reuters. This marks the latest blow to the phone manufacturer’s attempts to sell devices in the United States. According to CNET, Best Buy has stopped ordering new phones from the Chinese company and will stop selling Huawei’s products entirely over the next few weeks. Huawei has faced an uphill battle in selling phones in the US. Major carriers including AT&Tand Verizon have refused to sell the company’s phones due to pressure from the US government, leaving retailers like Best Buy and Amazon as the only remaining places for US customers to get devices like the recently released Mate 10 Pro or upcoming P20 line of devices. Losing Best Buy, the largest consumer electronics retailer in the country, is another major setback for the Chinese phone company. Of course, all that pales in comparison to the fact that the US government is opposed to Huawei’s devices. The heads of the FBI, CIA, and NSA all recommend against using the phones due to concerns about the company’s ties to the Chinese government, and a new bill currently working its way through Congress would ban government agencies from using Huawei and ZTE phones Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have a trade war in our hands. The Americans are isolating themselves. China will continue to trade with the rest of the world. By the way, the Huawei p10 phones are awesome!!

Africa is being taken over by Chinese who have a different tack than America or Europeans generally. Never heard a Chinese who says, "I am here to civilize you". It was shocking for Americans to see people in Ethiopia learning Mandarin in some slums. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
