Now, a chip that doesn't pay the troll toll to Qualcomm, AND ships with a cellular modem? That's hard.
The SoC itself being Qualcomm patent free I find quite easy to believe in.
1. is no longer a threat for the US
2. no longer has (perhaps never had), the lead
3. was forced to bow down because has no leverage
The US still chooses what customers China has access to
