Huawei – The ‘Hua’ syllable means petals or lavish and luxurious in Mandarin. While the second syllable ‘Wei’ has a meaning of achievement or action in Mandarin. Hence, the Huawei logo symbolizes the achievement that surge or boast.
In these 33 years of journey, Huawei has changed its logo three times. The original Huawei logo was created at the same time the company was founded in 1987. The earliest logo contained some of the elements that have been used on the following versions, too; the multiple petals, the red color, and the upward movement (similar to the ‘rising sun’).
And the latest logo has been introduced at the time of the launch of P20 smartphones in 2018. The shape of the ‘flower’ stayed essentially the same, but it kept a trifling difference between the logo of Huawei Consumer Business Group and that of Huawei Corporate, which is a combination of its Carrier Network Business Group, Enterprise Business Group, and Cloud Business Group. The petals in the logo of Huawei Consumer Business Group is solid, where a gradient is found in the logo of Huawei Corporate.
And the most significant change was in the font where the most visible part is ‘E’. In the previous logo, ‘E’ was slightly curved but not in the new one.
However, the new logo acts as a metaphor for Huawei’s open-minded attitude and partnership strategy showing that the company is going to maintain healthy growth in the future.
Previously in 2006, the brand modified the emblem. The petals grew wider and adopted a sharp angle, while the number grew smaller. A 3D effect was introduced, while the similarity with the rising sun became even more perceptible. The logo reflects Huawei’s principles of customer-focus, innovation, steady, and sustainable growth, and harmony.
Huawei logo represents the principle of the company and how it has been a customer-oriented provider. The shapes of the icon used in the logo are focused on the bottom center and show the idea of creating long-term value for their customers.
