Is Huawei P30 Pro Worth Buying?

Huawei P30 Pro is indeed the Chinese telecommunications giant's latest flagship. P-series by Huawei is all about photography. Huawei's P30 Pro is the very first smartphone to feature a 5X optical zoom functionality. Thanks to a brilliantly designed periscopic lens design that uses a prism to guide light through the appropriate optics without making this phone unreasonably thick.

Design and screen

The Huawei P30 Pro also looks elegant, owing mainly to the stunning back colours. Both smartphones are made entirely of glass, and hence are sensitive to cosmetic blemishes and finger spots, but with relatively new Android phones we see this. P30 Max is easy to hold and stand out in a positive way.

This phone is small and compact and far more convenient to handle at the moment than nearly all other high-end Android phones. This mobile phone has a comparative "small" 6.1-inch display and weighs approximately 165 grams, trying to make operating a lot nicer.

The P30 Pro has an OLED screen, which still looks decent and the brightness is good as well. 2340 by 1080 pixel resolution is not really that high and Android flagship phones now have a better display, but it is still more than enough. Most of the high-end Android smartphones in 2020 features a screen with a higher refresh rate (90 or 120Hz), however, the P30 phones do not have this functionality. But it is not actually troubling and the smartphones still feel very smooth.

Hardware and battery life

The Huawei P30 Pro is powered by the Kirin 980 chip that still guarantees rapid performance. Applications start up instantly, multitasking is not an issue and the software runs perfectly. The fingerprint sensor, positioned beneath the screen, is also doing a good job. However, the sensor is a bit on the slow side, particularly if you start comparing it to the newer top devices.
