I for one have been using a Honor (Huawei) phone for over 3 months with DNSFilter app running 24x7. Blocked all google domains after I installed the necessary apps from playstore. I don't see any problems if google shuts of Honor/Huawei devices permanently. I'd say it will be a benefit of Honor/Huawei phones. It will be the most privacy friendly phone out of the box.

Edit- I use Newpipe instead of Youtube. So thats the alternative for the last google service I'd need everyday.

In my experience it is relatively easy to migrate off of Google services, except for the cloud messaging stuff. Unless you don't care when you get messages and only want to see them when you check (or god forbid only use email), you want GCM/firebase to work.

For me, not having any Google code would be a selling point if anything.
