Sorry, we don’t believe you or your government.

That said, the track record of our government(s) isn't exactly pretty either. I'm just not sure who to believe anymore.
And, I haven't caught Huawei in a lie yet... I catch our government (USA at least) regularly.

"However, rather than targeting Apple—the company that employs vast numbers of Chinese workers at plants ranging from Foxconn to Pegatron, and which supports a huge network of Chinese supply chain companies, and which sells the leading share of premium phones in China, which contributes billions in domestic VAT to China on local sales of devices, the P.R.C. has outlined that its retaliation will not be ill-considered and self-destructive, but will instead target the very companies that Trump ordered to stop doing business with Huawei."

What a horrible constructed sentence. One of many in all of his articles.

Is DED getting paid per word or is English a second or third language for him?

You are beam focussing narrowly on one basic and largely irrelevant metric.

CPU and GPU speed is irrelevant?!

Ahem, I think most commentators would agree those metrics are in fact the most important when comparing phone performance and on every single one the iPhone obliterates Huawei (and every other Android OEM).

The simplest way to deal with your claim is for you yourself to find out through your own means.

Go out and ask anyone with a Kirin 980 if speed is an issue. If it lacks in some way. If you don't know anyone, look around on the internet.

It has been years since speed was an issue for users. 

I use a Kirin 970 and speed isn't even a consideration.

That is the reality for the vast majority of people but don't take my word for it. Ask and investigate for yourself!

The same applies to Apple. Have you seen anyone clamouring to upgrade older handsets because of speed? People are holding onto their iPhones for longer and one of the reasons is that speed - even.on two year old hardware - is fine.

What counts today, what sells new phones are other factors. Obviously each new generation is faster than the previous one and that won't change but camera tech is far more of a selling point right now the proof is in the pudding.

Look at what reviewers and users are debating over. Look at what advertising is pushing (cameras). It is not speed.

That is way off what most commentators consider most important.

On the other hand faster WiFi, faster modems, signal stability, batteries and charging etc are still important to many users.

Like I said, look around you. Who is complaining about the speed of the Kirin 980, QC845 etc? 

Do you agree that for the vast majority of users, speed isn't a problem?
