With all the events happening right now I find it really hard to justify buying products made in China/Russia/Belarus. This product looks great, but I'll never have a clean conscious knowing my money is by extension financing terrorists.

Why are you lumping China with the actual invaders? There's the Taiwan mess, and China don't participate in the sanctions regime, but it's not the same thing as actively invading. ( For the record, i think that sanctioning Russia is the morally correct thing to do)

Will this product be affected by the US bans on Huawei?

Highly likely, but remember those bans affect the government, not private citizens. You’re free to buy Huawei products.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

> if you want basic features like cloud sync and handwriting conversion, you have to sign up for the $8/mo subscription. You don't "have to" for cloud sync. Remarkable is a fairly open platform and there is a vibrant open source community surrounding it. You can use a tool like the Remote Connection Utility [0], with support for $12pa. "RCU ensures the user's data is never out of their control, completely unshackled…

Cloud sync is also available by default without a subscription, just limited to files that were modified in the past 60 days.

RRP €499 (around $558) according to https://www.theverge.com/2022/2/28/22954498/huawei-matepad-p...

Hm, is that really a competitive price these days? That's more than 130 Euros more than an entry-level iPad... which has a long and good track record.
