While Huawei has been hit by sanctions from several countries, it continues to develop smartphones for domestic use and emerging markets.

The company is also developing its own processors so it does not have to rely on outside sources for its main applications processor. But while that has not been confirmed, Huawei continues to use HiSilicon’s processors for current smartphones.

While the export restrictions on Huawei may hinder its attempt to regain a top position in the smartphone market soon. Developments may allow it to compete at a higher level if it can get Chinese foundries to develop process technology that can compete with Qualcomm, MediaTek and more.

Meanwhile, the Huawei Pura 70 Pro+ smartphone is one of the latest devices from the Chinese vendor that includes numerous components from domestic vendors like Yangtze Memory and HiSilicon.

The following is a partial deep dive into the Huawei Pura 70 Pro+ conducted by TechInsights.
