SoftBank is currently negotiating terms with U.S. chipmaker Nvidia Corp after receiving an approach about takeover interest last month, reports said.

China’s Huawei has beaten Samsung to become the number-one smartphone seller worldwide in the second quarter, reports said Thursday.

Huawei shipped 55.8 million devices in the April-June period, trumping Samsung’s 53.7 million, according to data from research firm Canalys.

Huawei now sells nearly two-thirds of its handsets in China, which took an early hit from the coronavirus pandemic but has since reclaimed ground as new cases have dwindled. Smartphone makers dominant in other countries are still struggling as new virus cases continue to rise.

Huawei’s sales fell 5% from the same quarter a year earlier, while South Korea’s Samsung posted a 30% drop due to weak demand in key markets including Brazil, the United States and Europe.
