I was planning to get a huawei matebook 13 but I am a bit worried now. Does this scandal affects the laptops or just the smartphones? Opinions about the whole thing?

Didn't Intel and Broadcomm also announce not supplying chips to Huawei? So in the long term it will likely affect stock of their product. I can imagine the stock they have now will likely go to their networking division before they go to their laptop division (if there is an overlap in supply that is).

I doubt it will have an affect on the Windows updates though.. Although I wouldn't know for sure now.

 

At the moment I don't have much of an opinion on the matter until more information is given.

I'd suggest avoiding Huawei for the moment

I dont think that something like that will happen.Just more companies will stop using huawei hardware like radios and staff.So huawei is not deep in the privacy of a company.

Depends how serious you are about having Windows as OS. If Microsoft "caves" under US government pressure (I don't go into politics about why Google caved), then you might end up without updates on Windows when it detects Huawei hardware ID. But Linux and other open-source OS' will still remain as option.

I deal with all that is happening you might be taking about risk going with Huawei devcies mostly if you are in the US. If you really want those articles specs it has to for the HP Spectre x360 or maybe a Dell XPS 13 9380 ormdowngrade from the mx150 to an igpu with the LG gram or Microsoft surface laptop 2
