Google may have just hit the 'kill switch' on Huawei's global smartphone ambitions

Google has suspended business activity with Huawei that involves the transfer or hardware, software and key technical services.

Analysts said that could cause big problems for the company internationally, where nearly half of its smartphone shipments go. Richard Yu, chief executive officer of Huawei Technologies Co., speaks as he presents the P30 series smartphone during a Huawei Technologies Co. launch event in Paris, France, on Tuesday, March 26, 2019.move to stop licensing its Android mobile operating system to Huawei could deal a huge blow to the Chinese tech giant's ambitions to become the top player in smartphones globally.

It means Huawei can no longer license Google's proprietary Android operating system and other services that it offers. Instead, Huawei is now only able to use a public version of Google's operating system through the Android Open Source Project. It means future Huawei phones will not have the Google services that users have come to expect on Android devices.

Huawei will backup themselves easy and they could build another system compete with Google ,same like Apple it is not hard , I think google will lose at end because they policies their business .

SteveShd And who'd want to hit the 'kill switch' on Trump's ambitions ? Isn't it time ? 🤔

Just gmail and YouTube is blocked not Android OS. So u'll just access gmail and YouTube through your web search engine!

No... Its a kill switch to America because China now will make sure American products are replaced with theirs in the rest of the world

Google a total bad manipulation ,not good for US trade reputation ,how do you want me to trust in your products in the future ? realDonaldTrump its the worst face of this trade war

Trump made huge miscalculation on Huawei. He may’ve united the Chinese people behind Xi & the Communist Party, whose biggest fears are threat from within, the Chinese people. The Chinese can take lots pain & for them, America is no longer the land of freedom but an ugly bully.

That’s most unfortunate, hey? 911CORLEBRA777 thespybrief

Congrats! Huawei will simply clone Android & proceed to challenge Google with a (no doubt extremely popular) non-American alternative around the globe.
