China's second-largest mobile phone manufacturers have been hit with a similar blacklisting that affected Huawei last year.

"Let me Petal it" currently doesn’t have quite the same ring to it, but these are early days.

The US government has approved a license for Qualcomm to resume the sale of 4G chips to Chinese smartphone giant Huawei.

It didn't take long for Samsung to regain its crown as the worlds biggest smartphone manufacturer thanks to records sales of its new models.

Huawei is likely to face even more obstacles in its path as Samsung announces it will also stop selling processors to the smartphone manufacturer.

The US government continues to make things difficult for Huawei, as their older devices are currently in the sanctions firing line.

Huawei might be selling phones like hotcakes despite US inteference, but they're running out of chips to run them on due to all of those sanctions.

Huawei may have been hit hard by US restrictions and the loss of Google, but it still sold more smartphones than anyone else.
