Not good news to start the day. Because as you can now read, the production of the Huawei Mate 40 series is to be throttled.
Huawei has been under immense pressure from the US government since last year, and the effects of that pressure seem to be finally showing.
Supply chain sources speaking to DigiTimes on condition of anonymity claim that Huawei recently cut component orders for the next-gen flagship Huawei Mate 40 and Mate 40 Pro by 30 percent.
The change suggests that Huawei expects a significant drop in demand and interest compared to previous models. It could also reflect recent US government sanctions, which have severely affected the company's competitiveness.
Huawei is believed to be stocking components in the meantime to ensure it can survive for the months to come - the general consensus is that it will have enough for 3-6 months.
Huawei seems to only be betting on the US presidential election in November at the moment. Joe Biden may relax the restrictions and allow Huawei to continue producing and buying components, but there is certainly no guarantee that he will win, let alone relax the restrictions.
