Huawei expected to ship 100 million 5G smartphones in China next year
Huawei and ZTE are believed to be the two leading clients for 5G capacitors and Tosaka predicts Huawei alone will reach 100 million 5G smartphone shipments in the coming year. With Taiyo Yuden being one of the largest capacitor manufacturers globally it's quite clear that it has very good data to base its predictions on.

Huawei has been expanding its 5G smartphone portfolio lately and is expected to offer more affordable devices with 5G connectivity in a bid to attract more buyers. Only time will tell if the 100 million figure is reachable.
