Huawei refutes allegations of government orders for smartphones amidst accelerating market growth: The Chinese tech colossus has categorically denied these allegations. Huawei’s official Weibo account issued a late statement denying the claims as unfounded allegations.
The statement emphasized that these rumors lacked any basis in fact and were solely spreading confusion and false information across multiple platforms and accounts. Huawei urged the public not to believe or disseminate such unreliable information and exhorted individuals to report such instances as soon as possible.

Recent releases, including the Mate 60/Pro/Pro+ series and the Mate X5 smartphone with a foldable screen, have sparked a purchasing frenzy in China. Due to the high demand, these devices were once sold at premium prices.
