Microsoft stopped accepting Huawei’s new orders

Affected by the list of regulated entities of the US Department of Commerce, Microsoft has suspended cooperation with Huawei and no longer accepts new orders from Huawei. Microsoft and Huawei are mainly engaged in two areas: Huawei’s notebook products and other software services including the Windows 10 operating system.

As a big customer, Microsoft previously set up a dedicated service team in Huawei. In view of the current situation, Microsoft has already evacuated the service team earlier. Some people familiar with the matter said that this does not mean that Microsoft and Huawei are no longer cooperating. It is only affected by the ban. Microsoft must suspend its cooperation with Huawei. In addition to Huawei’s notebook products, Huawei’s server products are also affected. These server products use a Windows Server system.

The suspension of cooperation with Huawei also revealed that in the news, the Huawei notebook products that have been released will not be affected. These notebook products will continue to receive Windows 10 security updates and other security protections. The main impact of the ban is Huawei’s unlisted products. In addition, Huawei officially confirmed that the company’s “Hongmeng OS” operating system can replace Android and Windows 10, but there is no specific release schedule.
