Reviews for the Huawei Mate 30 Pro

89% Huawei Mate 30 Pro Smartphone Review: A strong smartphone even without Google | Notebookcheck
With the Mate 30 Pro, Huawei is focusing on videography for the first time and has not only given its high-end smartphone the latest Kirin SoC but also a second 40 MP sensor for ultra-wide-angle photos and video recordings. Additionally, the Chinese company has stuffed all the cutting-edge technology into this smartphone, or at least that which it can get hold of, anyway.
Update: Wi-Fi test with new reference router added
Huawei Mate 30 Pro 5G front camera review
Source: DxOMark English Archive.org version
The Huawei Mate 30 Pro 5G has a serviceable but not particularly impressive selfie camera. Exposure is accurate and noise is low in good light, but the camera often drops the ball with skin tones, crucially important for good selfies, and color in stills is generally a bit unsaturated. The bokeh mode is capable, but the camera’s shallow depth of field introduces blur in more distant subjects, including faces in group shots. The phone does better with front camera video, capturing a wide dynamic range and managing pleasant colors, but it’s still not quite up there with the very best. If you shoot only the occasional selfie, the Huawei Mate 30 Pro 5G will get the job done, but if you are really into front camera usage, other phones offer a more compelling performance, especially in the Mate 30 Pro 5G’s price range.

For the last few weeks, I've lived in the Huawei ecosystem. My phone was either the P40 Pro or the Mate 30 Pro, my smartwatch was the Watch GT 2, and I even used a MediaPad for my tablet. This path is never one that I regret. I'm not sure I've ever been sent a Huawei product that I didn't like. The ecosystem all works together too, with Huawei Share enabling seamless file transfer.

Huawei Mate 30 Pro Review
Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
An extremely-capable all-rounder, Huawei has ensured that the Mate 30 Pro has the hardware innovation to tackle even the most potent competitors on the market. Its quad-camera may change the tide of video capture superiority against Apple, the new Kirin chipset will be able to outpace most of the current silicon on the market and the phone's battery and fast-charging chops mean it outlasts most other phones out there. The phone is tempting with free wireless earbuds and a smartwatch (while stocks last) but only if you're ok with the lack of Google Services, which for many will be a dealbreaker.

84% Huawei Mate 30 Pro Review — Beautiful Hardware But…
Source: Pokde English Archive.org version
Now about its main shortcoming… There are avenues to get Google services running on the Mate 30 Pro, but it’s not something we can officially condone. You might also have seen the recent news of HUAWEI working with other Chinese smartphone makers on an alternative app distribution platform, which might make things more interesting. Still, there’s a learning curve to picking up an Android phone sans Google’s services, and that might be hard to overlook, especially when the HUAWEI Mate 30 Pro costs RM3899. It’s definitely worth it for the hardware here, but whether you can accept the slight annoyance of relearning how to get apps onto an Android smartphone is entirely up to you.

The Huawei Mate30 Pro 5G comes with similar packaging as the conventional Mate30 Pro with a matte black box that contains the smartphone itself wrapped in a protective plastic sleeve, a SIM ejector pin, a Type-C pair of headphones, a protective casing as well as a 40W Super Charge fast charger and paired USB Type-C cable. The only difference that you can tell from the external packaging is the manifest sticker on the side of the box.

Huawei Mate 30 Pro Audio review
Source: DxOMark English Archive.org version
The Huawei Mate 30 Pro’s multimedia audio quality results are dominated by the company’s decision to equip it with only a single speaker. For starters, that means no stereo output, which greatly affects the quality of the user’s experience when playing back movies, TV shows, and music. In many cases, it will also be an issue when playing games. Having a single speaker on the bottom of the phone also means that holding the phone in the most natural landscape position for watching traditionally-formatted video puts the speaker off to one side, making the listening experience a bit unnatural because of the unbalanced sound.

I wish I could say that the Kirin 990 CPU also scored well on Geekbench 5, a benchmark we run to test a processor's efficiency. Saying it performed well would be a safe bet but, after downloading the APK for Geekbench 5 from four different sites, the app never worked. I could try searching for more Geekbench APKs, but I think this anecdote is an apt encapsulation of the Huawei Mate 30 Pro.

The Mate 30 Pro is an exceptional piece of hardware.

Source: Ausdroid English Archive.org version
Without Google mobile services, this phone isn’t very useful, and there’s little hope that it will get those services any time soon if ever. Yes, at the time of writing, there’s ways to install Google’s apps onto the Mate 30 Pro, but it’s not exactly consumer friendly, and it relies on Google not flicking the kill switch to disable its software entirely on Huawei’s smartphone. This is something it could do at any time.

The Huawei Mate 30 Pro Review: Top Hardware without Google?
Source: AnandTech English Archive.org version
At the end of the day, the question is if the phone is worth its asking price. Google services issues aside, I do have the feeling that Huawei is asking too much for a phone that is cutting several corners. The lack of stereo speakers, a better-quality screen, and a more complete camera experience (HDR processing, video quality) are I think the three main gripes about the phone. 1099€ is just too much to ask given these weaknesses.

Huawei is the second largest smartphone maker in the world, and while the majority of sales still come from its homeland, the Chinese smartphone maker is best placed to provide much needed competition for Apple and Samsung.

Similarly, in Australia, Huawei has shot to a strong third position in a relatively short space of time.

Huawei Mate 30 Pro: The new low light master
Source: Hardware Zone English Archive.org version
Make no mistake, the Mate 30 Pro’s camera system is certainly a revolutionary one. By smartly incorporating two larger-than-usual sensors, Huawei has created a video-focused counterpart to the P30 Pro’s obvious photography focus ones. And the results are equally impressive. Colours are accurate, and the camera adjusts for changing exposures quickly and accurately so you no longer have the issue of colours being drastically different when moving from one camera to another. From what we’ve seen, the larger sensor of the Ultra-wide Cine camera definitely makes a difference in terms of low light capture and sensitivity. If anything, the improved slow-motion capture mode has no equal among other smartphones in the market, so that certainly puts it one rung above the rest. We’d love to see how it compares to the camera modules on other recently released smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy Note10+ and the iPhone 11 Pro Max, but that will have to come in a later article after the Pixel 4 gets launched too.

With an overall DXOMARK Selfie score of 93, the Huawei Mate 30 Pro makes it into the top five in our current ranking and delivers images with good exposure and color as well as a nice texture/noise trade-off in most conditions. The fixed-focus lens means that the camera is not ideal for close-range and selfie-stick shots, and video clips could do with slightly better stabilization, but the Mate 30 Pro is capable of recording decent still and video selfies overall.

This phone isn't entirely representative of what Western markets will get when the Mate arrives on European shores; likely the China-specific apps will be swapped out for local alternatives, should Huawei still be unable to preload Google's apps and services.

A Day with the Huawei Mate 30 Pro: Kirin 990 and 7680 FPS Slow Motion Tests
Source: AnandTech English Archive.org version
Huawei is set to launch the Mate 30 Pro in October, starting with China and a few select European countries. Other EU areas will come through Q4. Huawei will make other announcements about the Middle East and Latin America in due course, but has promised to release it there as well. Also upcoming is the 5G version, which is likely to show up further into Q4, at least in China to begin with. The 8 GB/256 GB model will retail for 1099 Euro, with the 5G version having the same specifications for 1199 Euro.

Huawei Mate 30 Pro Unboxing and Hands-On: Killer Camera Game!
Source: Unbox English Archive.org version
Unfortunately, we only have pricing for the Huawei Mate 30 Pro here in Europe, which is at 1099 or roughly Php 64,000 but before you exit the room because of the pricing, do note that we do get Huawei devices at a better price point than our European friends so hopefully, we get this at around Php 50,000 to Php 55,000.

Hands on: Huawei Mate 30 Pro Review
Source: Trusted Reviews English Archive.org version
From our brief hands-on, this feels like a top performing handset, with very impressive photographic and hardware capabilities. The key problem is in the software, or lack of it: without Google apps, this will be a tough sell to the general market. This was always going to be the big issue with the new Huawei phones, and we'll have a more fully formed recommendation after our full review.

Hands on: Huawei Mate 30 Pro review
Source: Techradar English Archive.org version
The Huawei Mate 30 Pro is a beautiful phone that comes with all the features you'd want from a handset in 2019, but it doesn't sport Google's core services, such as the Google Play Store and that severely hampers what it can do.

Huawei Mate 30, 30 Pro, 30 RS hands-on review
Source: GSM Arena English Archive.org version
Huawei has promised the US-China trade war will not affect the Mate 30 launch and indeed it didn't stop the maker from going full steam ahead with its plans. Huawei has announced the Mate 30 series on September 19 in Munich, and the new phones are looking very intriguing, with or without Google's services framework.

Huawei Mate 30 Pro initial review: The incredible phone you won't buy
Source: Pocket Lint English Archive.org version
The Mate 30 Pro is a fantastically designed smartphone. The camera is superb. The design is a decent progression from the Mate 20 Pro, and we like pretty much everything about it. But there's a massive problem with it that shouldn't be underestimated: The lack of Google apps is a big problem. How can stores, networks, or we recommend it against the P30 Pro or a competitor? As enthusiasts of tech, that makes us very sad, but it is the truth. Such bad news can probably only be mitigated by a low price. But with 799 Euros set as the current cost - and no UK price yet whatsoever - we can't see how Huawei can sell this phone in Europe effectively.

Huawei Mate 30 Pro Review: Hands-on
Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
An extremely-capable all-rounder, Huawei has ensured that the Mate 30 Pro has the hardware innovation to tackle even the most potent competitors on the market. Its quad-camera may change the tide of video capture superiority against Apple, the new Kirin chipset will be able to outpace most of the current silicon on the market and phone battery and fast-charging chops mean it'll outlast most other phones out there. But outside of China, all of that effort will likely have been for nought, with the lack of Google Play Services tainting the user experience. If and when the US government revokes its ban, Huawei is ready to reinstate this much-needed features but until that point, this otherwise excellent-looking phone will likely be passed up for less politically volatile alternatives.

Huawei Mate 30 Pro launch
Source: Gadgetguy English Archive.org version
The Huawei Mate 30 Pro will not come with Google Android. As GadgetGuy Val Quinn reported from IFA Future Huawei Phones will still run Android (sort of). In simple terms, it runs an Android Open Source Project fork of Android that does not have access to any Google Mobile services, apps, Play Store, security updates, or future versions of Android.

Mate 30 Pro Review in Progress: Blessed and Cursed
Source: Tom's Guide English Archive.org version
Yes, the cameras are fantastic, and the screen looks beautiful, but without the Play Store, multiple tasks on the Mate 30 become much more difficult than they should be on a 2019 smartphone. It’s exciting to pick up and use briefly, but without this day-to-day convenience, for now you should probably leave the Mate 30 on the store shelf.
