I believe it is a failed strategy for a chinese surveillance manufacturer to try to compete in the so called "High End" market at this point in time. Maybe if Huawei makes a remarkably better product but is only marginally more expensive than a typical Hikvision product, they could probably succeed.
In all honesty, i dont see any Chinese designed equipment being remarkably better than what Hikvision has made so for that reason I dont think Huawei is gonna be anything worth hooting and hollering about.

I think hikua strategy is to provide cheap pricing, but I also believe they strive to give good quality and performance at cheap pricing.

Agreed. It's ridiculous for anyone to claim that Hik or Dauhua would be anything if they weren't the cheapest options. Comparing their products to the likes of Axis (or any other tier 1 Western brand) is completely pointless if they're not the cheapest.
They seem to make decent hardware, though their firmware is terrible (v-u-l-n-e-r-a-b-l-e), but no one will in the NA market will choose their product over an Axis or Bosch (et al) unless there is money to be saved.
I think Huawei got it right. We'll see how their strategy works out for them.

Totally disagree here and I don't sell nor promote hikua. Axis is a good product, but overpriced.
I'm talking about hikua picture quality and performance for the most part stands toe to toe with Axis and Western Tier 1 brands and in some cases beats them.
I would LOVE to see a pepsi/coke blind test. IPVM??? :)

Am I correct in saying Huawei used to rebrand Hikvision cameras and are now making their own? I wonder what this will mean for Genetec, will they u-turn on blocking Huawei cameras as long as they are not the OEM Hikvision models? I also wonder if Hauwei's cameras will be any better in terms of security than Hikvision
