The Maimang 10 has officially been released today in China by China Telecom for 2,299 yuan ($360). Maimang, previously known as Huawei Maimang, has changed ownership and is now under China Telecom. Additionally, the phone’s branding has also changed, and as of now, it will go by ‘Maimang’. This change of ownership and branding might be due to the chip ban sanctioned on Huawei, which prevents Huawei to secure any chips made by TSMC, which is the leading contract manufacturer for chipsets.
