Several Huawei Suppliers Receive Licenses Exempting Them  from US Tarde Restrictions

South Korea's Samsung Display has received a license from the U.S. government to supply its panels to Huawei Technologies, making it the first company in Asia known to have been given the greenlight to continue doing business with the Chinese tech giant, an industry source familiar with the matter said last week.
 
  • Chip companies were reportedly given permission to supply Huawei’s smartphone division with silicon, as long as it wasn’t used for the firm’s 5G telecoms business.
  • It’s unclear which chips Huawei can order, or if this will herald the return of its Kirin chipsets. Huawei previously stated that the Kirin 9000 would be its last self-designed flagship SoC.
  • Huawei did suggest it would be open to using Qualcomm chips in the future.
Another sign of the thaw is that Huawei can once again buy Sony and Omnivision camera sensors.
  • Huawei is different to all other smartphone manufacturers; in that it uses Sony's RYYB camera sensors for image capture in its flagships
  • Apart from Samsung which makes its own image sensors, major flagships generally use Sony image sensors, including the iPhone, OnePlus, Oppo, Xiaomi, and so on. However, those are more traditional Red-Green-Blue or RGB color filters with the Sony sensors. 
  • In the Huawei P and Mate series, the photographic prowess has been thanks to Sony's red-yellow-blue sensors (RYYB), which is able to gather more light than RGB sensors, and Huawei worked with Leica extensively on this to perfect the imaging techniques.
  • It doesn't always make the best shots in all lights, but the Mate 40 Pro does currently sit on top of Dxomark's lists of smartphone cameras for rear and selfies.
