Man. Huawei is fucking massive, they do far, far more things than just 5G base stations (a giant business in itself) and cell phones. They build even electric cars.

From the hardware huawei can build competitve phones. It's just hard to justify buying a phone without the google appstore.

No, not at all. Huawei is targeting markets like China (obviously) and Russia, where the Google App Store is irrelevant.

I've been using phones without Google Play for years.

My point is that YMMV based on where you are.

I think this video gives a decent overview on Huawei in general
