Huawei has ditched a product launch for the first time since the US placed it on a trade blacklist.
It was reported that the Chinese tech firm had intended to unveil a new laptop as early as this week.
However its consumer device chief Richard Yu told CNBC that it had become "unable to supply the PC".
He said it depends on how long the Entity List will be there.
This refers to a list of foreign parties that the US Department of Commerce has judged to pose a potential national security or foreign policy threat.
Specifically, Huawei is accused of having committed bank fraud to evade Iran sanctions and obstruction of justice among other violations.
