Tough Luck for the US, despite arm twisting other nations and using dirty tricks cannot kill off 1 private Chinese company.

Harmony OS is coming in September. The world won't need Android anymore after that. It will be a Harmony OS / iOS duopoly.

The Trump administration is after Huawei 5G, I don't think they care who is the king of the smartphone hill.
Harmony OS killing Android I don't see it happening outside China.

Chinese brands are extremely popular here in Pakistan and they sell well for the right reasons. In terms of budget, lower, mid and upper midrange phones Chinese offerings are far superior. A Chinese phone which costs $200 is far superior to the Samsung phone which costs the same. I believe that Redmi(a Xiaomi sub-brand) right now is the fasting growing smartphone brand in Pakistan. Before Redmi Realme was the fastest growing smartphone brand in Pakistan.

The first xiaomi phone i bought was for the same reason (best bang per buck) - now i own 4th xiaomi phone.
Around next year 5G goes mainstream here and im considering between Xiaomi & Huawei.

Samsung used to be biggest droid mobile here but was dethrone by chinese brands for the same reasons.
Apple stuff maintains their status quo as a fashion statement for the too much money to splurge folks.

Samsung's budget and midrange phones are atrocious for their price especially when compared to Chinese brands.
