The latest reports from Reuters reveal that Intel and Qualcomm will cease chip support for Huawei soon.
The new Reuters report clarifies that the US government has decided to revoke licenses for Qualcomm and Intel to sell chips to Huawei.
The report confirms that this decision came in a statement issued by the US Department of Commerce, which confirmed the cancellation of specific export licenses granted to Huawei.
Expectations indicate that this statement confirms that Huawei will not be able to obtain Qualcomm and Intel chips in the future, which may hinder Huawei’s production of new versions of laptops unless alternative chip options are found.
The report confirms that this new decision from the US government is already in effect, although details have not clarified Huawei’s plans for the MateBook X Pro devices that have already been announced.
It’s worth noting that Qualcomm, Intel, and Huawei have not provided official statements to confirm these details, but expectations suggest that these changes will be officially announced soon.
