Huawei has now unveiled its newest flagship phones, the Huawei P50 and Huawei P50 Pro. The two phones offer something rather interesting in the form of a 4G-only Snapdragon 888 SoC, but that should be offset by some impressive camera hardware, with the Huawei P50 Pro marking a return to Huawei monochrome shooters of old with a 40 MP B/W camera.

I can only imagine that the 4g 9000 is a regular 9000 with a defected and disabled 5g block, but the 4g 888 is curious,I would've thought that something made on even a nominal 5nm process is banned.
Again a lot of marketing buzzwords are thrown around, we'll see how the results add up soon.

Qualcomm is an American company you know. Removal of 5G is the provision for Huawei to receive Snapdragon SoC, otherwise their stock of 9000 will run out very soon.
Dxo was deceptive, recently it's also grown more secretive. That's not gonna help its reputation.

Merely banning 5g hardware instead of hardware on the latest process seems quite lax.
