Due to the recent occurrences that Huawei had with the United States of America (U.S.A.), a lot of people went rage because their phones suddenly stopped working. First was Google, next came SnapDragon and Intel and eventually, Facebook—the social media giant made the decision to stop the installation of built-in applications for Huawei phones.
Huawei Philippine dealers, to show their support and sympathy to Filipino Huawei users, organized a warranty program for Huawei. Huawei’s special warranty program was formed to be some sort of reassurance to customers who were drastically affected by the US ban of Huawei.

In addition to that, Huawei also made the confirmation that they are beginning to work on starting and developing their own operating system (OS) so that they don’t need to have a third-party company for it. In addition to that, they also said that they’re trying to develop and formulate their own application store so that even if Google continues to abide by what President Donald Trump’s directive is, Huawei users won’t have a problem with their problems.
