Huawei P30 Pro review

If you want a camera experience that is second to none in terms of quality and versatility, battery life, flagship performance, wireless charging, ultra-fast charging, and stylish all-glass design with premium build-quality, then the answer is a resounding yes. So long as Huawei is able to maintain its ability to access Google Play Services and the Android OS.

While the Huawei P30 Pro smartphone has a fairly standard design, it does have solid build quality, great performance, decent battery life, and an outstanding camera with many features. If mobile photography is your thing, you’ll be hard pressed to find a better camera on another phone.

If you look at the P30 Pro on its merits alone there is no other flagship on the market today I’d rather have in my pocket. It’s combination of photography prowess, raw power and battery life make for a deadly combination. When we look at Huawei’s current problematic situation the answer takes on new shape. The risk of it not being truly supported in the future has meant some stores have begun pulling the phone from shelves.

Huawei has seen its smartphone strategy flipped on its head in recent weeks. Despite its issues with the US trade ban, the Huawei P30 Pro is an incredible device which can compete with the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S10 and many other flagship devices we’ve seen this year.  The Huawei P30 Pro goes beyond featuring some of the best hardware packed into a smartphone, including optics which redefine expectations for a smartphone camera. But there’s much more than just the lenses to be impressed by.

The handset is choke full of camera innovations and the software still manages to keep things simple at the user end. We managed to shoot awesome shots without putting in much work. Figuring out the right color mode preference took us a while, but we gradually settled for  Standard colors. The Super Zoom is unlike what we have seen on any other phone till date, and the low light performance is excellent. The camera also manages to capture an impressive amount of details across all shooting modes and options.

The Huawei P30 Pro looks like a fabulous phone, especially for consumers who value a great camera – which is perhaps everyone. We are really taken in by lowlight photography and the superzoom, and I guess it will be a while before the novelty fades off. This is the kind of camera innovation that we expect to see on flagships. Huawei doesn’t compromise on any other smartphone aspect either, and the complete experience of P30 Pro is impressive, to say the least.

All in all, this is another winner for Huawei, particularly when it comes to video, where we’re looking at the biggest improvement to overall quality for a single component of the camera experience in a long time. That periscope camera is a huge deal for anyone looking to get a little closer to the action, both in photos and video, and Huawei’s nighttime photography and videography skills have never been better.

The real deal breakers in my experience with the P30 Pro revolved around the terrible background app management, which regularly kept important apps from running and delivering notifications. If this can be solved, as well as ensuring users that they’ll continue to receive support from the industry at large, most of the other negatives will trickle down to simple issues that can be overlooked.

The P30 Pro is an amazingly solid device that, once again, specializes in a camera experience like no other. There’s plenty to like here, but it’s the camera that you should be buying this phone for, as the rest just falls in line and becomes an expected part of the experience without feeling out-of-the-ordinary.

With the new device, Huawei has delivered an incredible smartphone that will no doubt satisfy. The standout feature is the triple-lens camera, which boasts incredible performance in long-range and low-light photography.  The P30 Pro is too impressive not to be a massive seller for Huawei. It’s basically an improved Mate 20 Pro with a much better camera and comes thoroughly recommended.
