This is a perfect example of someone succeeding even when all the "strongmen" in his village hold serious meetings on how to ensure his downfall!!
Despite a turbulent year, Huawei
has had massive sales success
according to figures now
released by the company itself. In
2018, Huawei sold more than
200 million smartphones, cementing its place as one of the
top three manufacturers in the
world. The 200 million figure
includes both Huawei and Honor
— the sister brand to Huawei —
phones, and is an impressive rise from the three million phones
Huawei sold in 2010. This
represents an annual growth of
66 percent.
Analysts place Huawei as the
world’s number two smartphone manufacturer, in front of Apple but behind Samsung. Samsung
has not revealed the amount of
phones sold in 2018
Huawei’s 2018 premium
smartphones have been well
received. The P20 Pro and the Mate 20 Pro have both been praised for their excellent
cameras, with the Mate 20 Pro
selling five million phones in only
two months. In China, the Nova series have proven popular too. The Nova 3 is the most popular
selfie smartphone of the year,
says the company in its press
release.
Huawei also said that it currently has
500 million active smartphones
spread across 170 different
countries worldwide. The company
has ambitions to overtake Samsung
to become the world's largest phone maker by the end of 2019 and says
it is on track to achieve that target.
Huawei’s success in 2018 has not
been easily achieved. Most
notably, the high sales figures
have come with a minimal
presence in the U.S., continued
allegations over ties to the Chinese government sparking
concerns over the use of its 5G
network equipment, plus most
recently the arrest of the firm’s
Chief Financial Officer Meng
Wanzhou, and the related political strife.

Note that in 2018 The US Banned the use of huawei telecoms equipments, banned its military from using huawei phones, and warned its citizens to stop using huawei phones, it also encovraged its allies to do the same thing. Austrailia also followed suit. Many huawei phones were not available in the US or Austrailia!!

Does it mean someone who intends to travel to US should not go for Huawei phone? What are the possibilities of penalties/deportation against entering and staying in US with Huawei phone?

That's not how it works.... You may import it in yourself, but you can't see any of their official outlets in the USA; Just like we have Samsung and Huawei outlets officially in Nigeria
