Huawei TV from 2022 in Belgium and soon in other countries in Europe

It's official, the manufacturer Huawei, whose recent smartphones are struggling to find their audience or are simply no longer distributed in our countries, terribly handicapped since the sanctions of the American administration, now aims to play a role in the sectors audio and video with, in particular the commercialsiation of televisions in Belgium from 2022.

Answer no doubt at the CES show in Las Vegas 2022 next January.

Similarly, France was not specifically mentioned in Byron Ma's statement. But we can legitimately think that the French market should be concerned soon. After Spain, with Belgium, it is clear that things are getting closer…
