Do not buy Huawei and Honor smartphones!
  • Info from service

    • Shortages of replacement mainboards already widespread. Some services lack screens. Situation is worse day by day
    • Unofficial services who makes repairs can't get components including main Kirin Soc/LSI
    • Parts prices can skyrocket by 5-10x times, so any advanced repair price will be more than new phone
    • It is unclear if Huawei will have supply of cameras and additional boards and connectors as lot of suppliers also stopped shipments
    • Within 3-4 months Huawei can close most of the services and will tighten inspection to be able to reject most clients

    This is also why it is important to avoid Z-CAM cameras (who uses main LSI and few other parts made by Huawei that are no longer available).
