Huawei is a multinational company that has a lot of businesses that are doing quite well globally. Huawei’s smartphone business has been doing very well. However, the series of bans from the U.S. since last year is affecting the company’s smartphone business. With the latest ban that targets its chip supply, the Chinese manufacturer is helpless. The Huawei Mate 40 series might be its last flagship smartphone but Huawei is not giving up entirely. With its smartphone business technically grounded, it is now shifting its attention to other businesses.
According to recent reports, Huawei is preparing to launch its own-brand display products. The company will release curved screen displays for the gaming market. The aim of Huawei is to compete with emerging manufacturers such as Xiaomi. Furthermore, the report claims that Huawei will outsource the production of standard display products (non-curved) to BOEVT. This company is an ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) subsidiary of BOE Technology Group. The first batch of its displays for Huawei will include 2~3 monitors.
