Huawei mobile head said that the current quality of Huawei phones is achieved by continuous hard work to fill the gaps created by technological challenges. Also, the entirety of the product quality is derived from quality system management and capability enhancements.
Bugs after release:
Over the past years, Huawei immensely increased the quality of its smartphones. However, with the last two models, there are reports that Apple is continuously trying to add new features to iPhones but these phones brought in a lot of bugs for the consumers.

Huawei CFO said personal case in Canada and U.S. is over

Huawei CFO and vice chairman, Meng Wanzhou is now the rotating chairman of the Chinese tech giant and she said that her personal case has come to an end.
During the Annual 2022 Huawei Business Report Conference, a reporter asked whether Meng Wanzhou will have to visit the U.S. regarding her past detention case. On that, the Huawei CFO replied that the Judge has ordered the police to withdraw the case along with personal charges.
She said Huawei has appeared in almost 170 countries around the world and Huawei employees can conduct business trips according to work and routines.
Story:
In December 2018, Huawei founder’s daughter and deputy chairwoman Meng Wanzhou was detained at Vancouver International Airport by Canada Border Services Agency officers.
Later on, she was arrested for a U.S. extradition request for allegations of fraud and conspiracy in circumventing U.S. sanctions on Iran. In the following year, the U.S. Department of Justice formally announced fraud charges against Ms. Meng.
The first stage of the extradition hearing began in January 2020 and concluded in May. It’s when the Canadian supreme court ordered kicked off the extradition process.
However, Ms. Meng’s lawyer made several serious allegations against the authorities involved in the detention process. The entire detention is unlawful and based on fabricated charges.
On September 24, 2021, the U.S. department of justice announced to make a deal with Meng Wanzhou to resolve the case through a deferred prosecution agreement. However, she was not charged with a fine or pleaded guilty to the allegations and charges.
In December last year, U.S. DOJ dismissed all charges against Meng before December 21, 2022.
Interestingly, it was a well-set case plot for Huawei CFO and all of the charges were resolved in an instant, which took at around 2 years to form. However, Meng Wanzhou is at her homeground and working for the company to lead it towards success.
