Since being sanctioned by the U.S. Department of Commerce on the Entity List, Huawei has been unable to purchase new 5G processors, and naturally cannot launch new 5G mobile phones.Recently, some Chinese companies have used Huawei’s design to launch 5G mobile phones for sale in the Chinese market, such as the one published in October. Hi Nova 10 5G It is one of them. It is unexpected that a French mobile phone brand will join in and launch a 5G mobile phone with Huawei design and enter the Chinese market at the same time.
French brands enter China with Huawei
Wiko, a French mobile phone brand founded in 2011, recently announced that it will launch Wiko 5G mobile phones in the Chinese market on December 27. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this is an OEM machine of Huawei Nova 9 SE. The biggest difference is that it has become a 5G mobile phone (and the Wiko trademark on the back of the machine). Taking advantage of Huawei’s inability to launch 5G mobile phones, Wiko took advantage of Huawei’s body design and the background of the French brand to launch a fully “Huawei-like” 5G mobile phone to attract Chinese consumers.
Switch to SD695 5G processor
From the official information released at this stage, we can know that the selling points of Huawei Nova 9 SE, including 108MP main camera, 66W fast charging and 256GB large-capacity storage, all appear on Wiko 5G. In order to deepen consumers’ association with Huawei, the factory also advertised that Wiko 5G is a Hongmeng ecological mobile phone, and even the system uses Huawei. For the time being, Wiko has not announced the actual specifications and configurations. It is said that it will use the Snapdragon 695 5G processor and 8GB RAM, and the others are the same as the Huawei Nova 9 SE. Wiko currently sells mobile phones in more than 30 countries in Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. This Nova 9 SE OEM version may have the opportunity to be sold overseas.
