Huawei is going to unveil the new P30 and P30 Pro on 26th March 2019 at Paris, France. The date has been made official by the company and just yesterday, it has also opened the live stream link of the event on its official YouTube channel. The new P30 and P30 Pro phones are some of the worst kept secrets in Huawei history. And while we are expecting some surprises, we already know almost everything about the new phones. From its design to its specs to its pricing, everything has been leaked over the past few days. So, if you are not patient enough to wait for the official keynote, here is everything we know about the new Huawei P30 and P30 Pro:

Regular readers of our smartphone reviews might know that we follow a structure which makes the reviews more streamlined. Well, since we already know almost everything about the new phones, we will be following the same structure. First, we will take a look at the leaked specs of the phone. Then we will move onto the design, performance, and finally to its pricing and availability. Consider this article as the preview of the Huawei P30 and P30 pro.

Huawei P30 Pro Specifications

Both the Huawei P30 and P30 Pro will be powered by the Huawei’s in house Kirin 980 processor. The Kirin 980 is an octa-core processor built on the latest 7 nm architecture. There are four Cortex-A76 cores two of which are clocked at 2.6 GHz and two at 1.92 GHz along with four Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 1.8 GHz. We have already seen the processor in recently released phones such as the Huawei Mate 20 Pro and its great. The chipset is both fast and efficient. It will be paired with Mali-G76 MP10, 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage.

Huawei P30 Specifications

As mentioned above, the Huawei P30 will be powered by the same Kirin 980 processor, however, the similarities between the phones end here. Apart from the processor, every other spec of the normal P30 is different from the P30 Pro.

Early renders of Huawei P30 and P30 Pro have been leaked and the phone looks gorgeous. the front of the phone features an edge to edge display with a small chin at the bottom and a teardrop notch at the top. The Huawei P30 Pro features thinner bezels on the side with a curved display similar to the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus.

The renders were first leaked by mysmartprice which showcase the smartphones in Black, Aurora, and Twilight colors. The Aurora and Twilight colors bring the shaded color composition which we have seen on previous Huawei smartphones before. I still prefer black as it looks stealthy but you might prefer the more vibrant ones.

Normally I don’t include a performance section in our preview articles, however, there is a lot of news about the phones being slower than the Mate 20 Pro which was released a few months back. The speculation started when GSM Arena published a blog post about the leaked AnTuTu score of Huawei P30 Pro where the phone scored 286,152 in the test.

As we mentioned before, the Huawei P30 and P30 Pro will be launched on 26th March. You can catch the live stream on YouTube. The phones will be available to buy in Europe right after the launch while it should arrive in other markets in the coming weeks. As far as pricing is concerned, the Huawei P30 is said to be starting at €749 (~₹58,500) while the base model of P30 Pro will cost €999 (~₹77,900). Of course, you can upgrade the RAM and storage to your liking if your bank accounts allow you to spend more.
