Alfred, dont take my post the wrong way, what I am about to say is simply to put any of your concerns to rest.
Most of all, forums are full of misinformation.
With that said ...
OH MY GOD, THIS STUFF DRIVES ME FREAKING NUTS!
HUAWEI PHONES ARE NOT BANNED IN THE USA BY TRUMP, NO CELL PHONES ARE BANNED BY TRUMP, NOT MOTOROLA, ZTE OR ANY OTHER CHINESE PHONE!!!
Trump did ban government agencies from purchasing ZTE and Huawei phones, whether or not he bans Motorola and other Chinese brands I dont know. Maybe Trump doesnt know Motorola is a Chinese company.
) But the ban is only government agencies, we live in a free country Alfred!
AS FAR AS OTHER STUPID COMMENTS ON THE INTERNET, NO CELL PHONE CARRIER IS GOING TO BAN ANY PHONES FROM ITS NETWORK, AND NO CELL PHONE MAKER IS GOING TO BAN THE NUMBER 2 MAKER OF PHONES IN THE WORLD, SOON TO BECOME NUMBER 1 SELLING PHONES IN THE WORLD FROM ITS NETWORK. THAT COMPANY IS HUAWEI.
In fact ATT and Verizon wanted to sell their phones but Trump pressured them not too.
SO CHILL OUT, YOUR GOOD TO GO, HUAWEI ROSE FROM THE RANKS TO BECOME ONE OF THE BEST CELL PHONES IN THE WORLD, AT ANY PRICE. THEIR LOWER COST PHONES SUCH AS THE MATE SE BLOWS THE DOORS OFF PHONES COSTING TWICE TO THREE TIMES THE PRICE. Their low cost Honor and Elate Phone is amazing.
Best of all, they are UNLOCKED!!! You can use them anyplace. You own it, the cell phone company doesnt own you!
Once you have your Huawei phone you'll be thrilled that you decided to take the "back road" AS they produce awesome products AT great PRICES.
Last year they over took Apple as the second largest cell phone maker and expected by the end of 2019 to overtake Samsung, think about that, all without the US carriers selling their phones.
have a nice day
