    Got a new one this month Huawei P30.
    The fact the battery last two days makes it the best phone I’ve owned in 7 years.

    In 12 months the Chinese will have an android system of their own. Donald has done them a favour

    I don't trust the Chinese at all. In fact, I search through my Chow Mein everfy week to make sure there are no listening devices in it.

    Huawei actually pay for the uk government’s testing of every product used in the uk- there are basically full time employees paid for. Y Huawei as part of gchq that test their equipment.

    They seem to have money to burn, and are in a constant recruitment drive. Despite the pay there is no way I’d work there and there is no way I’d buy a Huawei phone, even though they are very good.

    They have money to burn because they work for the Chinese government. If you want a Chinese government phone, go for it.

    Last 3 phones I've had have been Xiaomi, which have been great, but you do wonder if they start making a dent in western markets they'll face similar accusations.

    I think protectionism plays a big part of this.


    I'm sure there will be some simple software workarounds available very shortly in any case

    They’ll just end up using the free open source version of Android. biggest issue for them is if they lose access to the Android store, but there are plenty of ways around that for them.

    It's the android store I'm more concerned about, the phone will always work irrespective how it pans out, I've done all the custom rom stuff with previous phones don't Particularly want to start dicking around with that stuff again TBH, too late this evening I'll ring virgin tomorrow to get their opinion of flogging me a phone that will not possibly be able to provide the features promised in the not too distant future, great camera and excellent concert recording video and sound TBF.

    Have one, it's a fine phone, does everything I need and more without paying ridiculous money on it.

    They can spy on me anyway, they would soon get bored of porn, video games and football.

    Re: WaWee Phones

    Go into apps
    Find Google
    Turn off microphone
    Just in case the local Chinese are listening

    They do more secret stuff behind people’s back while they are watching porn than anything else.
    This is because the porn attention span of a typical user is greater than any other phone usage.
    It gives them time to gather whatever they are looking for.
    Porn is GCHQs most useful tool. Fact.

    Surely that is not how surveillance works.

    Malware downloaded through porn sites - yes. Though probably not from GCHQ.

    Waiting around until you watch porn because your attention is elsewhere (even though any snooping is done in the background without your knowledge)? Not quite so convinced.
