Huawei pursues the goal, by the end of this year, or 2021, cheap 5G-capable smartphones to bring to the market. Cost: less than 130 euros. This is the result of a report by the Chinese portal CNMO. It would not be the first time for the smartphone manufacturer to offer such an offer: Even with the LTE introduction, it was considered to be a pioneer for affordable models.
According to the 5G expert at Huawei, Yang Chaobin, prices for the brand’s 5G-enabled cell phones would drop even further in 2020. According to Winfuture, however, the cost point should initially only be in China be enforceable.
Wide network lasts
Nevertheless, it is essential that all network operators expand their 5G networks comprehensively. And that can take a while. Capacities are currently still very limited internationally. The problem: Network operators often offer lower bandwidths than network providers like Huawei advertise with their products. Therefore, there are no details from the manufacturer in this regard yet.
However, sales are likely to rise: Last year, the company, together with its Honor sub-brand, launched over 6.9 million 5G-capable models, including the Mate 30 5G series, the Mate 20 X 5G, the Mate X 5G, the Nova 6 5G or the Honor V30 series, as reported by Gizmochina, In 2020 there should be more.
