The Huawei Mate 20 Pro was an exquisite piece of technology and we truly loved almost everything about it, right from its design to the cameras. However, Huawei likes to push the boundaries and the Huawei P30 series is finally official to give us a taste of just that.
The base variant of the Huawei P30 will have 6GB RAM with 128GB internal storage, and it is priced at 799 euros (roughly Rs 70,000) while the Huawei P30 Pro would retail at a starting price of 999 euros (which roughly equals Rs 85,000). The P30 Pro goes up to 1,249 euros for the model with 512GB storage, while the 256 GB version is priced at 1,099 euros. All three have 8GB RAM. The phones are available from today, but that’s only in Europe. India availability will be announced separately.
Huawei smartphones invariably bring forth a new design and build from the past generation. And the Huawei P30 series is no different. Huawei has used a high-yield inkjet process, which it pioneered to develop the gradient design of the rear panel. It has drawn inspiration from nature for the gradient colors this time around.
Unlike some of the popular flagships launched in 2019, which all turned to the new hole-punch selfie camera design, the Huawei P30 series has stuck to the dewdrop design for their displays. The P30 and P30 Pro feature huge 6.1-inch and 6.47-inch FullHD+ curved OLED screens respectively, with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio and 2340×1080 pixels resolution. This means there’s just a selfie lens upfront and no additional sensors for a safer face unlock mechanism.
