What will be interesting to see is if this has any long-term effect on the iPhone's Chinese sales. Those sales amount to about 50m units a year or about $35b at an average selling price of $700 each.

No problemo. Since Apple’s sales in China are being limited, no corporate harm will be done by having its contracted assembler operations MOVED OUT OF CHINA to India, Vietnam and America.

Do it, Apple.

Huawei is a cancer and every Chinese company is it’s host.

Hey china - just remember that boycotts are a two way street and you have much more to lose.

Has anyone else noted that this so-called “trade war” is hitting liberal darlings the worst in the media?

The Chicoms especially want their subjects to use their own spy devices to tie into Dragonfly Eye seamlessly. Whipping up nationalism is as predictable as the sunrise tomorrow in China, and the sheeple there will sign up in droves to be controlled and monitored more closely.

I had hardly heard of Huawei (maybe 6 ads in a year) before that executive was arrested in Vancouver, and now I am seeing ads often several times daily.

I wonder if this whole kerfuffle isn’t just a way to get their name out there more than anything else...

I think this is waking up all the people in North America to what China is really about, and maybe, just maybe we should be more concerned about China than Russia. Canadians are definitely seeing what bad actors they are now.

A crazy foolish mistake by Apple to tie themselves to China.

Chinese State Capitalist/Socialists Government officials give their imprimatur to boycott of Apple products in China by Companies owned by the Chinese Capitalist/Socialist government and their employees in favor of buying products manufactured by the Chinese Capitalist/Socialist government’s wholly owned Huawei Manufacturing Company! Who would have guessed? —PING!


Huawei vs. Apple In China with Chinese Gov Backing Ping!
