Huawei phones we haven't had the Google services that bring the Google Play Store, and allow the installation of both Google applications and other applications that are useful for many people, for almost a year. Everything is happening because of Donald Trump, the US president, who in 2019 imposed a series of restrictions that block Huawei's access to some American technologies, so all the completely new Huawei phones released since then and until now do not have Google's proprietary software.
Huawei phones they still have Android because Google also distributes it in an open-source version, but since Google Mobile Services does not fall into this category, the Chinese cannot integrate this into their phones. This week, the first good news for the Chinese appeared, and this is because Donald Trump would like to allow them to start interacting with some US companies again, but only to collaborate in order to establish the interoperability standards of 5G equipment.
Huawei phones: HOPE for the return of Google applications
Huawei phones does not directly benefit from this concession, but there is hope that this is only a first step towards lifting all the sanctions imposed on the Chinese. The concession comes after information appeared in recent weeks according to which the US would actually like to further limit the ability of the Chinese to buy components for Huawei phones, but also for many other products, this being a very hard blow for them.
Huawei phones they are launched with very good hardware, and semi-useless software at the moment, and the chances that Google services and applications will return to them are definitely higher than a month ago. This concession made by Trump undoubtedly increases the chances that Huawei phones will again have access to what Google offers for customers in the future, but everything depends a lot on the relationship that the USA will have with China in the future.
Huawei phones sales were not affected much by the lack of these services and applications, and even without them, it is very possible that things will not change much in the coming months.
