Huawei already sold 200 million smartphones despite US-China situation

Despite uncertainties brought by the US-China trade war, Huawei remained one of the toughest smartphone manufacturers in the global market as it already sold over 200 million units. 

Huawei P30 Pro

Two months faster than 2018 operations

The company said hitting the 200 million mark was even two months faster than what its 2018 operations did. 

This only showed Huawei continued to show leadership in the industry despite having to deal with the trade tensions between the US and China, where it became a victim after the American government decided to put Huawei on its "Entity List" making it hard for US firms and Huawei to secure business deals.

200 million smartphones sold

Given the issue surrounding Huawei, it witnessed strong traction from its own country, where reports stated that the Chinese chose to purchase Huawei devices over Apple's. 

Huawei also noted that the P30 lineup and the Mate 20 series have outsold their predecessors. 

While its smartphone business was enjoying success, its chief executive officer, however, said the group was prepared to realize a 10 percent drop in the earnings of its consumer business group.
