Its excellent product quality and advanced technology have been praised by local people.

In addition, Huawei's investment in mobile phones and 5g network equipment has made great contributions to the local economic development and employment in the UK. According to an independent study by the Oxford economic consulting agency, Huawei's business activities in 2018 brought 1.7 billion pounds (about 1.27 US dollars) of economic benefits to the UK, six times as much as in 2012, creating a large number of employment opportunities; In terms of R & D alone, Huawei invested 112 million pounds in the UK for R & D in 2018 and employed more than 300 researchers in the UK.

At present, the British government is still open to business cooperation with Huawei. Before that, the British government has agreed to let Huawei participate in domestic 5g infrastructure. However, due to British companies such as arm, most of their industrial chains are distributed in the United States, so they have to abide by the ban of the United States.
