Earlier today we heard that Google had withdrawn Huawei’s Android license, which means that Huawei will have to use the open source version of Android going forward.
Google removed Huawei’s Android license after the US government has blacklisted the company and now Huawei has responded.
The company has said that it will continue to support all of its existing devices with security updateds and after sales service, you can see the statement below.
“Huawei has made substantial contributions to the development and growth of Android around the world. As one of Android’s key global partners, we have worked closely with their open-source platform to develop an ecosystem that has benefitted both users and the industry.
Huawei will continue to provide security updates and after-sales services to all existing Huawei and Honor smartphone and tablet products, covering those that have been sold and that are still in stock globally.
We will continue to build a safe and sustainable software ecosystem, in order to provide the best experience for all users globally.”
It is not clear as yet on how this situation will be resolved, the US and China are in the middle of a trade dispute, until that is resolved, we cannot see anything improving for Huawei in the US.
