The Huawei P30 is an amazing phone at any price, but the fact that it's so much cheaper than the phones it beats really seals the deal. It's got the 2nd best camera on the market currently, only trailing the Pro version of the phone, and it's blazing fast to use daily. It's also got two full days of battery life, best phone i've ever had in terms of battery life. The screen is amazing, the calls are clear, it has a headphone jack, honestly I can't really think of any negatives for this phone, other than the fact that this phone was "banned" from the US 2 weeks after I bought it.

I purchased this phone late last month, and to date I find it to be a really fantastic phone. Still in the exploration state but to date, I can say the following:

Setup was pretty straightforward, transfer of my data from another phone was made easy using 'Phone Clone'. There are other features provided for transferring data from other types of phones as well. Google assistant is a welcome perk for me, that definitely works and makes getting acquainted with my phone easier.

I chose the fast charger as a part of my purchase with the phone and it definitely charges up the phone faster than usual, and the phone keeps charge longer than the norm, even with the Bluetooth on and the transfer of data.

The camera takes fantastic pictures that shows an explosion of colors that makes an amateur photographer looks and feel like a pro. The camera and video features available on the Huawei P30 make taking pictures and videos a dream. I have to constantly take my phone from my son because he keeps using it to take pics and videos even though he has his own phone.

Playing music or doing recordings is great with the added features to make you play music like you are in a club or throwing a party. Oh, the option to have the lyrics show on the home screen while the song is playing is simply dope...

Using word, excel, pdf is made simply and easy. Updates are done in the background while using other features of the phone. The 'split screen' option is a bonus to booth.

I got this phone a few days ago and in general it's a great phone. I took one star off because some features made me feel uncomfortable. 1st. it has limited capacity for US user. I cannot register Huawei ID because the US is not in the country list so I cannot access such as Huawei AppGallery and anything that require Huawei ID. 2nd, many Huawei apps state clearly on the privacy policy that Huawei will collect private information such as birthday. If I choose decline, then apps became not acceptable. I concerned pretty a lot on this because I have no idea how they will use my private information.

So I retired my Mate 9 and tried the one plus 7T. Returned it right away. Total garbage. Huawei continues to be the phone brand for me and the rest of the world if you read real stats. Word to the wise, this is an international version. Will not update in US, which the seller denied before delivering it. Also, it comes with an international charging block. For me that's no problem because I got to the UK after owning for 2 weeks while it was running fine on Emui 9. Just had 5 updates in 4 days. Emui 10.1 is amazing. It's like having a new top end phone. Highly recommended if you can update when overseas.

You need this phone now. this is one of the best android phones ever made. I had the mate10 pro and google pixel 3xl.
this phone charges fully in 45 minutes. the battery last me a full day with continuous use, including youtubes and netflix and I still had battery left. the EMUI system is ridiculously user friendly. every step of using this phone is guided when you first use it. camera is not the best compare to the pixel 3 xl. but if you have never used a pixel, then this camera is OK. the fingerprint reader is on point unlike the pixel. the face recognition is on point. the UI is the best and no other phone company can compare. the samsung, google all suck compare to user friendlyness of this phone. i love it and will not switch to a new comapny anytime soon....
