I'm so tired of people trying to ridiculously imply that everything coming out of Huawei is fake. The argument doesn't even make sense as this isn't from Huawei, this is an engineering sample given to an end user.
I realize you're not exactly saying that, but it really gets on my nerves these days. For example, when the Kirin 9000s came out, people were saying Huawei was lying about it being a 7nm chip and that it was made in Taiwan from old stock or whatever. The problem with those claims are the only reason we knew it was a 7nm chip was because a CANADIAN company opened it up and determined it was indeed a 7nm chip. Huawei didn't say anything and people were calling them liars for what Canadians were saying. It's why there was the 4.9999G jokes since Huawei never claimed the 9000s was 5G.
Similarly in this case, it's an engineering sample. Huawei again didn't say anything. If you're going to call someone a liar the person you're accusing should have at least said something.
