Huawei, the world’s 3rd largest smartphone maker has announced that it will no longer produce low-end smartphone in order to improve sales and profits. This is gradually confirming the extinction of low-end Huawei smartphones.

Huawei claims the reason for taking this decision is because the margin is extremely low and that they will move forward with the production of only mid-range and upper-range smartphones henceforth. Huawei says:

“We are giving up the very low-end devices because the margin in this is extremely low, and it’s not making enough profit for us”

Way back in 2014, Huawei reported a cut in production of low-end devices. And now, the brand has complete drop the production.

Huawei is not the first smartphone manufacturer to announce an desertion of the low-end market. The attraction of becoming the Android equivalent of Apple is solid. HTC and Sony have endeavoured to follow through on that path, but with slight success. BlackBerry also abandoned budget smartphones in 2013, but that move almost killed the brand too. These trademarks are still struggling till now.

However, Huawei case might be different since they are the world’s 3rd biggest smartphone maker after all. That could be an edge for them. All the other brands that have bid to ditch the low-end have been businesses experiencing financial struggles. Nonetheless business of making Android smartphones have not been very lucrative (only Apple makes over 90% of the smartphone industry’s profits), Huawei is not precisely in the league of struggling phone makers though, so possibly they can pull this off.

If they do pull off the plug, maybe one day, they will drop the production of mid-range too and concentrate only on making high-end devices. Time will tell.

Meanwhile, there are many options available in the low-end smartphone market so don’t feel hurt, it’s a jam-packed habitation, with all manner of Android phone makers in town.
