The camera is unbelievable!

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2019

I am a longtime iPhone user, so this was a big jump for me. My hobby is photography, and I thought the iPhone Xs camera was amazing, but the P30 blows that camera out of the water in so many ways. The 10x digital zoom is unbelievable sharp, and the 5x optical zoom is unparalleled. The phone has a beautiful feel in the hand, even with a case. I think part of that is the narrow width/longer length. Even though the screen specs are nowhere near those of the Galaxy10, I find it crisp and bright. EMUI might be antiquated, but I find it perfectly functional. Although it is expensive, even the basic version is 8GB RAM and 128GB memory is a huge leap from my Xs, for less money. My only complaint so far is the facial recognition - it barely works. Sometimes, even in perfect light and no hat or sunglasses, it doesn't work. But I sure like having a unique camera. Here in the US, the carrier monopoly offers such a limited selection, resulting in most people having the same phones, which at the higher end are iPone/Galaxy/Pixel.

Doesn't work on AT&T in US

Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2020

Don't waste your money. Even though it says it can work with AT&T, it doesn't work well. Data is a constant battle and AT&T doesn't recognize the device. You can make calls and send texts, but good luck trying to use any apps that require data.

I've been working with AT&T and online troubleshooting forums for months trying to get my data to work reliably on this device with no luck. Wish I would've returned it immediately when I discovered the issue after buying, but now it's too late. I was too excited about the features and overlooked the hassle of constantly dropped drata.

Second Huawei ever, this is a top notch premium phone

Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2020

Verified Purchase

It's a beautiful phone, really fast when switching from app to app. Battery life is UNBELIEVABLE, last all day long. Screen resolution is premium, the phone itself has premium and solid feel. Pictures' color tends to be on cooler side(probably due to huge lens sensor) but the edit functions allow you to edit pictures with little to no distortion whatsoever, the picture quality of this phone is right up there with any flagship phone out there right now. I chose this phone over the note 9 plus and Galaxy S10plus(Girlfriend got S10+) . I am glad I got it. It's very smooth in operation and it has an elegant look to it (black color). Had no problem with service (METROPCS), also absolutely no problems with GOOGLE play and services. Competes with IPhone 11ProMax IMO in terms of battery life, picture quality, software and/or operating systems adaptability and speed, screen resolution?(it's a matter of "taste") etc.

Amazing phone omg

Despite the ongoing trade war issues surrounding Huawei, this is still the absolute BEST smart phone camera on the market period. There's no competition. If price is not a factor get this phone. That said. it is pricey (on par with Pixel3) but it blows the pixel 3 out of the water. More powerful specs, better camera and overall much more premium feeling when you hold it in your hand. Some people consider EMUI a down side but honestly not me. I quite enjoy the gesture based navigation and I haven't had any real problems so far.

To be noted this particular product listing did NOT come with a free clear plastic case like you might see in various unboxing videos. The super charger that comes with it is EU plug (it came with a super cheap adapter to convert to US but it's cheap and not a very stable connection so i recommend getting a better adapter.)

I recommend registering for a huawei ID ahead of time on a computer because I ran into issues doing it on the device. If you are getting this to use on Google Fi make sure you order a free sim card from google prior to getting the phone. Despite being advertised as "Sim-Free" this is not the same as Google Fi "Sim-free setup". all it means in this case is they don't include a sim because it's unlocked for all carriers, you still need to put a sim in sim slot 1 for service it's not eSim capable

Works just fine with AT&T - virtually impossible to run out of battery

Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2019

Verified Purchase

I have had this phone now for about 3 weeks. The SIM card from my AT&T phone in the USA worked seamlessly. I am a fairly heavy user. The LG phone it replaced spent a lot of time on it's charger. I have yet to run this phone down below 30% battery - even when using it to watch movies on long flights and not bothering to plug it in overnight on mosts nights. It charges so quickly it is difficult to believe. That is it's absolutely best feature. Advanced android OS is the other - the ability to do things like back up to a NAS i have on my home network automatically, etc. Works extremely well as a phone - much louder and clearer than other phones I have used. And then there is the main reason I bought it which is the camera - simply outstanding pictures. Of course Trump opened his mouth and the price dropped by $70. Wish I could get that back, but i suppose you cannot have everything.

Amazing camera except for Portrait mode

When taking photos in portrait mode, the right side of the background is not blured evenly. it only happens in portrait mode, the quality of other photo modes is amazing. other than this, it's a very nice phone.

Great Device!!

Awesome and gorgeous device. Awesome camera, can't say enough good things about the camera and the pictures this phone can produce. Build quality is amazing. The only knock on the device is the EMUI software. It can be quirky at times but it works. This is coming from someone who has been using stock Android going back the Nexus 6p, pixel 1,2, and 3.

Stunning camera, Google Apps, Android 10

Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2020

UPDATE: ON 02/23/22 AT&T DROPPED SERVICE FOR ALL IOS AND ANDROID DEVICES MORE THAN TWO YEARS OLD.

SADLY THE P30PRO WAS ON THAT LIST ALONG WITH NUMEROUS OTHER DEVICES. I NOW HAVE A GLORIOUS BRICK.

THE NEW P50PRO STILL WORKS ON AT&T.

The best phone on the market, hands down. YES, it does have all google apps and updated to Android 10 with full dark mode on the first day. 2-3 battery life and a camera that compares to a professional lens. To truly illustrate the quality of the lens, I included a dual mode video still frame of an elk herd AT DUSK, 500+ ft away that I snapped yesterday.

The in-screen fingerprint sensor doesn't work nearly as well as the dedicated sensor on the Honor 8 and Mate SE. However, Face ID recognizes me at night, in sunglasses, etc in less than a second.

Very pleased with my purchase.

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2020

Upgraded from obsolete Lumia 950 Windows phones. The Huawei P30 Pro with Android system was relatively easy to learn, however I did need assistance from Huawei tech support to configure the APN to receive and send data using AT&T. The voice function worked after inserting the Sim, however the preset APN did not allow data flow, possibly due to the restrictions imposed by the government. I contacted AT&T tech support and they then referred me to Huawei who promptly fixed the problem over the phone. Their USA number is 888-548-2934.

The phone is nothing short of amazing and the Google features are also top notch. I am delighted with the phones and pleased to have bought them for about 40% less than a comparable Apple, or Samsung.
