After Huawei suffered a series of low blows after the US ban, another is now coming. The manufacturer is now losing access to Sony smartphone camera sensors.
Huawei and Sony will also go their separate ways in the future. Because here too the US embargo against the Chinese manufacturer applies. After you can no longer get processors from TSMC , the displays from Samsung and LG are no longer allowed to be supplied, and memory chips are no longer allowed to be obtained from Huawei, the camera sensors of the smartphones are now also affected.
A move that will cost Sony on the order of half a billion dollars. More specifically, the company reduced its medium-term capital expenditures by $ 470 million.
This is less painful for Sony, as they supply all other smartphone manufacturers with their sensors. They even signed an exclusive contract with Apple.
Huawei, however, will also fall far behind when it comes to smartphone cameras, as there is no really good replacement for Sony sensors. At least not one that doesn't involve American technology.
