If a mainstream phone manufacturer releases a serious lens system, I'd review it, yes.
However, as long as Huawei has limited access to Google apps, they don't qualify.

Without Google Apps, their market share will collapse in all western countries ...
Of course, they will survive because of their home market alone - but that's not an attractive market for me here.
