Attractive design, Good battery life, Great Cameras
Cheaper alternatives, Android future in doubt after US trade ban
The heavy hand of the US government looms over Huawei and, inadvertently, its smartphone business - which is a shame, because the P30 is simply too good to ban...
Software remains so-so, No 5x zoom as on the P30 Pro, Google partnership in doubt
Of course the Huawei P30 Pro is a better phone than the Huawei P30, but it's also a more expensive phone, and in terms of internal power and specs the handsets match up almost identically. Factor all of that in, and we think there are going to be a lot of...

Great triple-lens camera, Stylish design, Solid battery life
Screen could be sharper, No wireless charging, Minimal water resistance
“The Huawei P30 is packed full of style, power and features, with a particular focus on the camera. It doesn't quite match some phones, but it's also cheaper than most better handsets.”...
Excellent camera, Great design, Powerful internals
Mono speaker, No water resistance, A couple of camera inconsistencies
It fits great in the hand, costs less than a Pixel 3 and Samsung Galaxy S10, delivers a flagship experience and glistens like a unicorn should you opt for the breathing crystal version. If you can deal with the lack of wireless charging, curved display a...
No wireless charging, Huawei's UI not to everyone's taste, Not as good as the P30 Pro
The Huawei P30 would have the best camera on the market if the P30 Pro didn't exist – it can take high-quality and detailed pictures using a range of handy modes and effects, and it's one of the easiest-to-use cameras we've tested.Beyond the camera, thoug...
Three cracking cameras, Sumptuous looks, 3.5mm headphone jack
Lacks 5x optical zoom of P30 Pro, Only IP53 dust- and water-resistant
The Huawei P30, perhaps inevitably, suffers by comparison to the sexier P30 Pro. It isn't as big or as gloriously capable in the camera department, but it deserves, at the very least, to be considered on its own merits.It competes much more closely with t...
Camera With 3x Lossless Optical Zoom, Super HDR In Photos, Generous 6.1-inch Display, Fast In-Display Fingerprint Scanner
EMUI 9.1 Software Is An Eyesore, Specs Aren't Market-Leading, Only IP53 Water Resistance
If you've been thinking about buying the Huawei P20 Pro for its impressive triple-camera and 3x lossless optical zoom, it's probably worth holding on just that little but longer and opting for the Huawei P30 instead.The P30 series' smaller sibling touts t...
It's tricky to assess the P30 yet, as so much of Huawei's pitch comes down to the cameras, which we've yet to really test fully.Still, on paper the new triple lens set-up looks like one of the best around, and a big improvement from the P20 - which alread...

Slimmer profile than Pro model, Highly capable triple camera setup, Includes 3.5mm jack, Gorgeous design and colour options
Doesn't have a Google Night Sight equivalent camera mode, Lacks the quad camera / larger battery of its Pro cousin, No wireless charging
If the P30 Pro's quad camera setup and superior zoom doesn't appeal then the P30's smaller form factor makes it a great option - and likely the more affordable one too.Nonetheless, its design is every bit as gorgeous, while the triple camera setup to the...
Abstract: While the P30 lacks many of the key features of the Pro version, it still has plenty to offer. Take-up will very much depend on how well it's priced, as I can't see someone plumping for this over, say, the Galaxy S10e if they're the same price. It's a sha...
