Following a US presidential decree that added Huawei as a de facto trade blacklist , Google is reportedly considering stopping its service and technical support and cooperation with the company.
As a result, Android devices sold by Huawei outside China will no longer be able to use Google-made apps such as Android OS updates, Google Play Store, Gmail, and YouTube apps, which may cause the company's smartphone business to go wild. There is.
According to Reuters anonymous sources, Huawei will only be able to use the open source Android, not access to apps and services provided by Google. A Google spokesman declined to give details, saying, "We will comply with the Presidential Decree and consider the consequences."
Furthermore, according to sources, Google is discussing which services to stop in-house. Engadget has contacted the company for this report and has been aware that updates to the Google Play store and apps will continue for a while, but OS and security updates are strictly prohibited.
In China, the Google Play store is not provided originally, so the impact is considered to be small, but outside China, serious ripples are expected.

We would like to watch the transition as to what restrictions are placed on Huawei's smartphones that are already distributed and sold, and what kind of OS and applications will be supported by the company's new terminals.
