Huawei just announced its latest foldable model, the Mate X not long after Samsung announced its Galaxy Fold less than a week ago. Phone manufacturers are finding new ways to convince consumers to upgrade their devices. We spoke to Darwin Sucipto, the Managing Editor at techENT.tv on his thoughts on how Huawei's advancement in tech will be difficult for the US to ignore.

Jeremy Fleming, director of UK’s cybersecurity agency, called for Western states to understand threats and opportunities that arise from Chinese technology, citing focus on national security concerns. Huawei so far has staunchly denied these claims and sympathisers warned that refusing to include the Chinese firms in 5G rollouts could be “hugely disruptive”.
