Huawei P30 Pro

Expert Reviews | Edward Munn, Nathan Spendelow

... the P30 Pro's wide-ranging photographic capabilities are simply the icing on the cake of perhaps the most well-rounded flagship to date.

ZDNet | Sandra Vogel

The P30 Pro's headline feature is clearly its quad camera system, but there are plenty of other things to like about it. The in-screen speaker system works well, as does the in-screen fingerprint sensor. The OLED display is superb, and the battery should last all day for most users.... There are downsides, though. The phone may have a beautiful backplate but it's slippery as an eel, while the audio quality from the single speaker is not acceptable in a handset at this price.

A superstar handset that won't let you down, no matter what you throw at it.

IT PRO | Bobby Hellard

Steep price aside, the P30 Pro is a beautiful smartphone, with exceptional battery life and a set of unparalleled cameras - Huawei is zooming to the top.

T3 | Aaron Brown

The phenomenal 5x optical and 10x hybrid zoom are unlike anything we've used before and allow you to capture photos that you simply wouldn't be able to get with any other smartphone.

Stuff | Natalya Paul

The P30 Pro sports a camera array that'll have its competitors calling for emergency meetings. It's not just all software, there's been an impressive update to the hardware, resulting in what is an unbeatable zoom on a smartphone camera.

Pocket-lint | Mike Lowe

With great design and colour options, immense battery life plenty of power and the P30 Pro isn't just a photography phone, it's arguably the best flagship phone we'll see in 2019. Its camera setup is currently untouchable too.

The Guardian | Samuel Gibbs

The P30 Pro genuinely marks a massive leap forward for smartphone cameras with game changing low-light performance and a remarkable new zoom technology.

Ubergizmo | Hubert Nguyen

... the Huawei P30 Pro is an exceptional smartphone by many objective metrics.

Neowin | Rich Woods

This camera does things that I'd never have thought possible on a smartphone. The low-light capabilities can see more at night than I can see with my eyes.

Australian PC World | Fergus Halliday

The P30 Pro doubles down on the things that worked about its predecessor and pushes the envelope for smartphone photography even further... And if you're after the smartphone with "the best camera" and are happy to work with the quirks ...the Huawei P30 Pro is probably going to be the premium flagship smartphone for you.

TechAeris | Jason Bouwmeester

If mobile photography is your thing, you'll be hard pressed to find a better camera on another phone. As such, we've awarded the P30 Pro with a Top Pick of 2019 here at Techaeris, largely for the camera alone.

TheEffect.Net | John Reilly

... the Huawei P30 Pro's camera department is the most featured packed on any smartphone available right now. Pair that with is virtually 'unkillable' battery, glorious full-screen display and buttery smooth performance and Huawei may have taken the crown of 'Best Flagship of 2019' and it's only April.

NotebookCheck | Daniel Schmidt

The Leica quad camera is the star of the show, but the Huawei P30 Pro excels in other areas too and offers a compelling flagship experience. We hope that Huawei improves its video performance though.

Toronto Sun | Adam Swimmer

what really impressed me was the P30 Pro's photography in low-light ... the images were generally quite clear and could handle contrast incredibly well.

AVForums | David Phelan

It's good that the P30 Pro is getting the next Android software as without some updating it would have been hard to recommend. But as it is, there's every reason to have confidence in this phone's longevity. And anyway, it's already a highly potent performer.

Android Central | Harish Jonnalagadda

There is no perfect smartphone, but the P30 Pro has everything you'd want from a flagship. More importantly, it has the best smartphone camera I've ever used, and the only one you'll ever need.

VentureBeat | Chris O'brien

In comparison to the P20 Pro, the P30 Pro is not such a radical leap forward. But Huawei still managed to pack in some improvements that resulted in even more staggering photos.

Wired UK | Andrew Williams

... the Huawei P30 Pro is one of the most impressive phones in the world, by any metric.

CNET | Andrew Hoyle

The Huawei P30 Pro's impressive camera skills and vibrant design easily beat the Galaxy S10 Plus and the Pixel 3, but political entanglements mean the phone won't come to the US.

MobileTechTalk | Craig Bradshaw

The design, the colour variants available, the performance and battery life of the P30 Pro is top-tier and really cements Huawei as one of the clear flagship manufacturers of smartphones...At a price that rivals (or matches) many of the flagship devices from the other main players, the P30 Pro simply has to be judged on the merits listed above, and it certainly delivers a compelling offering. The P-series used to indicate Huawei's focus on photography over performance, but with the P30 Pro, perhaps Progressive is now a more apt moniker.

news.com.au | Nick Whigham

The Huawei P30 Pro has also the bells and whistles you'd expect from a premium phone

Gizmodo UK | Sam Rutherford

Almost any feature found on any other high-end premium phone-the P30 Pro has too.

The Economic Times

The P30 Pro offers the best zoom on a smartphone camera to date.

jmcomms | Jonathan Morris

There's plenty to play for in the world of mobile photography, and the Huawei P30 Pro is the gold standard right now.

Digital Trends | Andy Boxall

The camera's supreme flexibility is matched by long battery life, strong performance, and the choice of some gorgeous colors schemes.

phoneArena | Victor Hristov

The Huawei P30 Pro is a flagship-level phone with a good-looking design, somewhat quirky interface, fast performance, great specs, outstanding battery life, and a camera that captures good-looking photos.

TechRadar | John McCann

It's not the perfect smartphone – such a device will likely never exist – but the Huawei P30 Pro gets pretty darn close, and it's the best camera phone we've used to date.

91mobiles | Nitansh Rastog

It's a near-perfect flagship that doesn't falter on any aspect, be it design, display, performance or battery. While its software might evoke mixed reactions, you can overcome that...All said and done, the Huawei P30 Pro is a near-perfect flagship, which is usually a rarity, and won't leave you asking for more.

Trusted Reviews | Max Parker

If you're happy to live with Huawei's version of Android, the P30 Pro is a fantastic flagship...The camera here is incredible, the battery life superb and the design slick enough to help it stand out.

AndroidPit | Steffen Herget

The P30 Pro has set the bar extremely high for smartphone cameras... Only the software lags a bit behind the hardware. Here, Huawei has room for improvement and a lot of potential.

Android Authority | Bogdan Petrovan, David Imel

There are two big ways smartphones can still improve substantially, at least until foldables come along. One is the camera, the other is the battery. The Huawei P30 Pro does both. Its advantages over competitors are almost unfair.

Mr Phone | Ershad Kaleebullah

The Huawei P30 Pro has an excellent set of cameras inside a reliably good flagship smartphone. Even if you hate EMUI, I can easily recommend more than a few launchers for you to try out. It is Android, after all, that is the beauty of open-source software.

India Today | Sanket Vijayasarathy

The Huawei P30 pro doesn't come cheap, but you can be rest assured that you will be getting a feature-packed flagship that doesn't disappoint.

Mobile Syrup | Dean Daley

I'd recommend the P30 Pro to anyone looking for a device with a good camera and a battery that can last longer than a day...I would have liked the phone to feature a headphone jack or a hole punch display, as well as perhaps a higher resolution screen.

TechPP (Technology Personalized) | Nimish Dubey

It is the phone that lets you leave your DSLR behind. Well, for a while anyway. Really. And if that does not tell you everything about the Huawei P30 Pro, nothing will.

Mashable India | Aakash Jhaveri

If I were to get a phone primarily as a serviceable camera, the P30 Pro would win my wallet. It is targeted towards those who prioritise imaging over everything, and it does excel in that department.

The Indian Express | Anuj Bhatia

The P30 Pro is the best smartphone Huawei has ever made. From its cameras,battery and performance, the P30 Pro gets a lot of things right.

GadgetMatch | Marvin Velasco

If you value camera performance more than anything else in a smartphone, you really don't have to look any further. The P30 Pro is 2019's top camera phone so far, and it would take a lot to dethrone it.

Firstpost | Sheldon Pinto

Basically, the P30 Pro is a device that's screaming with new technology, but you will not notice most of the new stuff that's been added and that's a good thing. Technology is not supposed to get in your way but simply let you explore more the way you are used to doing it.

Mashable | Aakash Jhaveri

The Huawei P30 Pro is one of the exciting devices around, with cameras that can give every other phone a run for the money.

Gadgets Now | Komal Mohan

... a sleek and premium design, flagship processor and solid battery life and you're staring at a winner.

SlashGear | JC Torres

...a mobile photography experience that perhaps only Google's next Pixel might be able to threaten. Save for a few paper cuts, like unimpressive audio and a heavily-customized Android experience, the Huawei P30 Pro is almost perfect in every way.

The Verge | Vlad Savov

...if you care at all about mobile photography, this is a device you'll want to know about. Because the P30 Pro is blazing the trail that everyone else will follow, it's showcasing the future of photography in a phone that's available today. And, for once, the device playing that role isn't made by Apple, Samsung, or Google.
