How Huawei beat the US and bypassed sanctions: China Post releases new smartphones under the Hi Nova brand

We have already reported on the release of the Hi Nova 9 SE smartphone, which has become an improved copy of Huawei Nova 9 SE. The source says that Huawei has indeed found a way to get around US sanctions.

Hi Nova was launched in 2021, it is owned by the Chinese state mail company China Post. Now, all of a sudden, China Post is launching its own smartphones that are surprisingly similar to the Huawei Nova series devices. The thing is that back in 2019, China Post and Huawei signed an agreement.

Huawei is assigned the development and production of a smartphone, and China Post gives its brand and buys components that Huawei has blocked access to. In this simple way, Huawei received the components it needed, in particular, single-chip systems with 5G support. In addition, phones can install the latest version of Android on smartphones with Google services.

At this stage, Hi Nova-branded devices are available exclusively in China. But experts do not exclude that the range of devices from this company will grow, and subsequently they will appear outside of China.

Last week it became known that in mid-April, VimpelCom received a large batch of equipment worth $15 million from Huawei. The agreement was signed even before the imposition of sanctions, prohibiting the import of such equipment.
