Huawei Technologies Co. is about to test demand for flagship smartphones in China, and the chief executive officer of its consumer business said he’s confident both markets and manufacturers are ready.
Richard Yu said Thursday the Chinese government’s strict limitations on public mobility at the start of the year, to bring the spread of COVID-19 under control, are beginning to relax as the virus has died down, and that the country is open for business again.
“It’s under control and most stores are open,” he said in an interview ahead of the company’s launch of its P40 range of flagship smartphones. “The supply chain and manufacturing in China has recovered.”
