The Mate 30 launch could showcase one of the best Android flagship series of this year, but uncertainties between the Chinese and U.S. governments mean the upcoming devices could lose out on Google’s apps and services. For those that don’t know, Google pulled OS updates and more from Huawei devices following a U.S. government blacklist order back in May of this year. Fearing the worst, the Chinese giant most likely ramped up development of its custom operating system called HarmonyOS, which will initially be used in products falling under the IoT category.

Fortunately, the Trump administration decided to provide Huawei some relief and allowed U.S. companies to resume their business with the manufacturer. Disappointingly, the latest development in the saga reveals that the Android ban will be maintained for the upcoming Mate 30 launch unless a middle ground is reached between the two governments.
