I've got a cheap Chinese phone, a Honor 9X, and its really a difficult product to go up against. -- I describe it as "having about twice the spec of an iPhone SE at about half the price".
(Sure, we can go on about how we're preventing the Chinese from buying components to make phones and the like but does anyone seriously believe that this situation is going to last very long? The Chinese see this embargo as a threat to their national sovereignty and will do whatever it takes to fix the technology gap. Meanwhile it was reported a few days ago that Qalcomm is missing out on many billions in sales because of the US ban (and so is lobbying the administration for an export license).
