Taiwanese chipset manufacturer MediaTek has recently applied for permission in continuing the supply of chips for Huawei. According to a statement from MediaTek in a Reuters report, the company has applied for permission to ship chips to Huawei after September 15, 2020. The general license temporarily allows partnerships from American companies that supply chips, software, and other US technologies to Huawei. Earlier in August, Huawei CEO Richard Yu revealed that the Mate 40 series could be the last smartphone to carry Kirin flagship chipsets. With the move, MediaTek might just save Huawei from its chipset dilemma. Huawei makes some of the most interesting little gadgets around and when I visited their booth at CommunicAsia yesterday, they've got a dozens of Pocket WiFi and USB sticks for all sorts of cellular network on display. The one above is the Huawei WiFi E589 which supports LTE, 3G and 2G connections with speeds up to 50Mbps.
