Huawei is one of the most important customers of Samsung for a few years now, but new details have confirmed that Huawei is heading to reduce orders for supplies for Samsung components as a result of the US ban.
The US ban imposed on Huawei certainly does not include the Korean giant Samsung, but the Korean company already has huge common interests with the United States and American companies that may ultimately lead to Samsung agreeing to implement the ban decisions on Huawei.
There is no doubt that the US ban on Huawei was a wake-up call to many smartphone manufacturers in general, and Huawei in particular, as Huawei recently tries to cooperate with a larger number of suppliers and companies around the world to avoid other companies joining this ban.
That is why Huawei’s new decision came to reduce its dependence on the Korean giant Samsung as a supplier of the company's components, to avoid Samsung joining the ban decisions under pressure from the US administration.
On the other hand, some leaks indicate Huawei’s plans to complete in the coming period on components that were 100% manufactured in the Chinese market, so Huawei will gradually reduce the supply orders from the Korean giant during the next five years, and also rely more on local suppliers in China.
Huawei is ranked fifth among companies that rely on Samsung components, with Apple coming in first place, followed by Best Buy, Deutsche Telekom and Verizon.
It is reported that Huawei relies on Samsung in memory and storage chips, and Huawei is heading in the coming period to suppliers in China, so we may see devices with 100% Chinese components from Huawei in the coming period.
