What a bullshit political BS. The reality: Western machines & software are used to make this chip. SMIC uses ASML machines from the Netherlands to make these chips. The DUV can do 7nm chips. Only just low yield, the production capacity is just slow and expensive. But means it's not impossible to produce some chips at 7nm. TSMC did the same procedure with ASML DUV machines and had a test node @ 7nm

[@joelconolly5574]

Huawei doing 5G better than the west and US decides to cease their operations just goes to shows how fast Huawei's innovations are compared to even the west. And shows how better Chinese are at innovating and reverse engineering. Outside of that, I do think Huawei has better connectivity than even Samsung, Apple, Google and some Chinese brands. Going back to my hometown or some rural areas I do noticed how good reception is with Huawei than others since I can still get some receptions while others are dead. As for this phone, somehow the triple camera punch hole still looks cleaner than the iPhone 14 Pro's dynamic island. It's actually my favourite design choices of this phone.

[@oceanwave4502]

It's all about how much R&D one company wants to put in. The more, the better (more signal reception capability). China has cost advantage, compared to western countries; plus, the market expectation (China AND BRICS+ AND BRI countries) is larger, thus, able to sell more, thus Return on Investment is easier than their western counterparts.

However, one major talking point about this phone that you failed to mention is the satellite call function. No doubt, you probably can't use it outside of China, but it's the 1st phone to have such a function. Also, so glad Huawei is making a comeback. Samsung has been getting lazy on top of the android world without Huawei challenging them. On the other hand, it seems Huawei is totally doing away with google. So even with Huawei back in the game, Samsung is still not being challenged. Xiaomi, Vivo and Oppo will have to work harder to achieve that.

Actually Huawei Mate 60 pro do can run google service, I watched a video from Trinity Electronics(the same phone importer that mentioned in this video) and they managed to connect to google service, here is the link. check out 1:45: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppnMpXmroJqNqJY&ab_channel=%E4%B8%89%E7%A6%BE%E9%9B%BB%E6%B0%A3TrinityElectronicHK

Don't care about politics, just give us good tech and good competition. Had an Huawei p20 back then was a great phone. Hope someday they give us Google apps back.

[@Killercutsvideo]

How is that over heating phone?

[@miguelongchangco7087]

This is the most awesome I've seen all year. The tech crammed into this thing is just amazing even if the chip itself is 7nm. My mate 40 pro will outclass the mate 60 in terms of raw power but thats about it. The only thing I'm having second thoughts about is that somewhat flat display. Im used to curved panels for that better ergonomics and in-hand feel.

[@Gwf2ey]

This is great, competition is what we need in the market. Hope Huawei keep pushing so Apple and Qualcomm have to do even better.

I've only used HTCs and then Samsung Phones until Mate 20 Pro came along. Boy, what a phone that was until US decided to act tough. Back to Samsung again but really miss the Mate 20 Pro

[@arthurswart4436]

You can move apps from a Mate 20 Pro to a Mate 40 using the Phone Clone feature. That transfers Google apps as well, I've been using Maps and Gmail without a problem. Cloud storage doesn't work, but Huawei offers that too.

[@phil88]

why would anyone spend premium phone price to buy old tech with knockoff android OS?

[@eastnypharmacy2522]

Let me say, by far the best explanation of smartphone I have ever seen. You explain this in a most simplistic way! I’m in USA, and reality is that we have lost the advancement in technology. Or should I say china is moving faster than US companies and Apple or our government feels threatened. As they should, it is the benefit of consumer to have options. But in rest, US government is a bully, and by force they destroy economy and hold their people hostage to what they call laws to protect the public. I say screw our government, we do not live in an age where we should be under their control. I hope there will be a way to Huawei in the USA, I will be the first one to buy

[@guyrelax]

why is this so popular if its a way slower chip especially compared to a16 and a17

[@bensgadgetreviews]

Because the point is America is doing everything it can to stop this country from being able to make chips. America has gathered all of Europe and Japan and Taiwan to also join their side to try to stop China but China made a pretty decent chip anyway. This is newsworthy and why the U.S. gov is all mad right now.

[@Mayorrans_Garage]

It sucks so bad that Huawei is in its position. I've had to use my old Huawei Mate 20 Pro from 5 years ago when I sent my fold 4 for repair.. other than the camera, some tiny stutters and 60hz display, the phone is still great even today! Even has 40W charging which is more than basically all Samsung phone.. Absolutely miss them

I had the huawei p40 before it was my first huawei phone and I was happy because that phone became unbeatable for like 2 years it was unheard of it was the king of night photography but now I'm happy with my s23 ultra. I hope huawei survives this I'm a huge fan. If huawei didn't get those sanctions they would have had a 2 or 3nm chip now and more than 1 inch sensor.

[@MyReviews_karkan]

I really liked their phones. I wish I could get this one

[@sleepy_dobe]

I'm neither pro-US nor pro-China, but I'm very pro-Huawei phones. I had the P9 and then the Note 20 Pro, and both phones never gave me any problems at all. In fact, they worked so well that I didn't even think about upgrading to a new generation phone until the batteries started degrading to the point when the phones could no longer last a day's usage for me. I was using each phone for just over 3 years before the battery started losing their full capacities. In fact, both phones are still working today. Left alone on standby, the Mate 20 Pro would last about 2.5 days while the P9, about three-quarters of a day. It's just too bad that politics got in the way of innovation and competition, and with this ban going on, Huawei would have to sell their phones at much higher prices in the limited markets that they can sell in, in order to recover their costs of making the phone. Their flagship models used to be able to compete not just on tech, but also on price. But now, they're easily more expensive than comparative flagships from Samsung and Apple.

Excellent video buddy you earned a sub from me. You need to polish your production a bit though, there is a very annoying squeaking in the background and the video edits are very noticeable. You described the product with soul though which most videos don't, they just list off specs so well done there. thanks again.
