huawei is actually doing quite well outside of the U.S . several of my friends in europe has the mate 20 pro and they were previously iphone holders.
there isn't much for apple to choose from, qualcomm and huawei holds majority of the 5g patents around the world, its gonna take other companies awhile to catch up to them.
lets see how well this year's new iphone sale goes, if it does poorly, apple might consider 5g from huawei just so they can get boosted sales for 2020

Don't believe all the government nonsense with regard to Huawei. Apple should consider and should start looking seriously at their tech.
I won’t buy an iPhone if it contains any commie spyware/hardware. Period.
At this point we only have solid evidence that US government spied on Huawei but not visa versa. That said, given current political climate Apple would not be able to use Huawei chips in USA even if they wanted to. Foreign markets are more viable but this would still risk losing favor with US government as US, for whatever reasons, are trying to prevent all countries from using Huawei equipment.
This will be great news for both company working together to kick Samsung and Qualcomm ass!
Qualcomm doesn't want to sell to apple, in fact apple wants to keep buying qualcomm's lte modem but qualcomm was the one that stop supplying due to the ongoing dispute.
I don’t understand any of this, my current iPhone already has 5Ge so what’s the problem.
Sorry everybody, I couldn’t resist
Here's what 5GE really means, what phones you can expect to see it on and why you shouldn't get overly excited about it.

I'm throwing on my tin-foil hat now but hear me out.... I believe that there is a secret backdoor requirement for 5G which is agreed to between US government and manufacturers. This explains the reason as to why the US government is so persistent about not wanting China involved. They know that if Huawei creates this 5G backdoor for US government then there is likelihood of China having access also, or instead they do not wish to have Huawei or China know about this backdoor plan. Don't believe that the government would do this? Remember all the things Snowden released that the government was doing to spy, but now after was exposed their capabilities are not so good because everyone using encryption etc. You honestly think that the US Government would pass on such an opportunity to implement surveillance capabilities into a brand new system that promises ability to track your every location including all the smart things you own?
Certainly the Communist Police take them seriously: “Together with the Public Security Bureau, Huawei will unlock a new era of smart policing and help build a safer, smarter society"

But on the other hand seeing as Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou is an iPhone user maybe I'm wrong...
LOL at everyone railing against Huawei in the comments. You've all fallen for our government's misinformation campaign against them. Our allies are not so gullible, and have pushed back against our threats to cut off support and intelligence sharing if they buy from the company. Those allies asked a simple question: "Where's your proof?" They were met with crickets.
Umm you don't think that the US politicians can be bribed? The Communist China lobbyists simply has to line their pockets with a few million $$$ and suddenly pro-China magic happens! LOL
US politicians get bribed all the time. They sell out all the time.
Was it reported that China is at the forefront in 5G infrastructure? If true, Apple will lose respect in China if they are late with a 5G phone. Wouldn't hurt Apple's credibility if it used Huawei parts in that country.
