Huawei P30 Pro Review in 2023 || Worth It Over A New Budget Phone?

Its been nearly 4 years since i bought. Still using with more than 250 apps in hard conditions. I change battery last week and its still like the first day. I will use it 10 years for sure.

[@ashdoestech]

Nice!

[@marijusciucinas784]

Amazing phone, had S9+ before P30 Pro, P30 Pro amazing device, fast, battery good, camera very nice

[@azubuike92]

Where do you get the b3 please I'd love to change mine

[@gregb5251]

Same here brother!!!

[@gedertonfc]

Good idea! Where you get the battery, do you have a link?

[@vicmes]

Of all the phones I have used, this is by far the best I have ever had. My first smartphone was an Apple, and it continued with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5S, iPhone 6S, iPhone 8. Then I switched to the P30 Pro in 2019 and am still using it today (July 2023) and it works perfectly fine! At the beginning of 2023, there was a promotion for a battery replacement offered directly by Huawei, so I decided to do it in the official store - after 4 years. At the same time, I also had the charger connector replaced. For 50 EUR, I gave my phone a few more years of life. I currently have over 300 apps installed and am a heavy user. But I don't play any games at all. I love the cameras, even though I know there are better ones out there. Since I travel a lot for personal and business reasons, I need good connectivity, so I especially like the TwinApp feature, as well as the Private Space feature, which is a VM on the phone and you can use a second profile for business. With separate Google/Play accounts, separate apps, messengers. So theoretically you can have 8 whatsapp accounts with dual sim. I have not yet found a phone that can do the same and has all these advantages in 2023.

I got my P30 in 2019, hands down the best phone I ever owned. I've just traded it in for a Samsung Galaxy s23 Ultra and yeah the Samsung is a great phone but you can tell the P30 offered alot for the money on release... My P30 saw me through the COVID crisis and into 2023, its the phone I've owned that I've actually felt quite nostalgic over since my old Nokia 3310 back in the day. A great phone that in many ways I miss.

[@ectolo]

Im making a jump from a P20 Pro. Considering the P30 Pro. Pixel 7 Pro has an absolute deal breaker - No 50Mp mode and No Manual camera mode.

[@rjpm92]

​@@ectolo I'm the same as you, looking to replace my P20 Pro and just got back from looking at the Pixel 8. Disappointed to be honest, didn't feel an upgrade and the camera wasn't noticeably better on the Pixel and was actually worse on full zoom (which wasn't as zoomed in as the P20 Pro). Might get a P30 Pro but will more than likely just save my money.

[@ectolo]

@@rjpm92 This reply just popped up in my notifications. I've ordered a Xiaomi 14 Ultra, got an incredibly deal on it and couldn't resist! You should check it out too if you're in europe and you can get access to Unidays somehow! PS: The pixel 8 pro solved two of my main deal breakers from the 7 Pro. 50Mp shots were possible and manual camera mode. It was a heat bomb though, like worryingly so. The selfie camera was also legitably terrible, like objectively worse than my P20 Pro, a cheaper, 5 or 6 year older device. I ordered one from Amazon in October and sent it back 4 days later. I'm looking forward to having two phones again!

[@tees1812]

Will be 5yrs in April that I've owned my p30 pro. Hands down best phone I've ever had. Never had to change the battery, never scratched the screen etc. Still working perfectly. Feel like I should upgrade but I like my p30 pro and know I will miss it if I get rid of it. Also the cost of new phones these days is unreal.

Watching this video using my P30 Pro. The camera is superb, just not for video. Will be adding a new iphone 12 pro max but I wont still let go of this phone anytime in the future. Still functions well as a daily driver. It is not giving me any headache. All apps are working just fine. AND THE BATTERY IS STILL FLEXING IT!!!!

[@ashdoestech]

I agree, I loved it! Battery was great and the camera was still amazing! Glad you’re still enjoying it!

[@MZperX4418]

Changed recently to pixel 8 pro, but my all time favourite is the p30 pro. Battery still last longer, finger touch and sensor much better, no stupid bugs like my pixel does time to time. Overall for me P30 beats pixel as I feel more reliable. Of course pixel got plenty of improvements like stereo speakers which are great, or better screen which is hard to notice. But to be honest it wasn't a big step after the p30...

[@ashdoestech]

A lot of people have said the same thing about the P30 Pro. It still is a great phone! I didn’t want to sell mine on! 🙁

[@mv9533]

Im using the p30 (not pro) for 3.5 years and it's still working as well as the first day. Before I had this phone, I needed a new one every year, either it was getting slow or the display was damaged, I'm using my phones 24/7, so it's really a top device!!

[@jaserkhelfa]

Nice

[@artdogg50]

How is the battery? This is one of the first faster charging phones I can remember. Many argue fast charging like that destroy the battery, which I don't think has been proven.

[@mv9533]

The akuu lasts all day if I don't use it constantly and according to an akuu app it is still in good condition. Don't forget that I've probably charged it at least 1,500 times and a replacement battery costs maybe a maximum of $25. I wouldn't have thought that in this day and age, when many things have a planned expiry date, there would be a cell phone that would last so long (especially when I use it). Unfortunately, it no longer receives updates, but if Huawei still had the Google Play Store on its new smartphones, I would only buy this brand 😢

[@artdogg50]

​@@mv9533To me that proof enough that the fast charging isn't really killing it. Just another argument I can use against the IPhone fanboys that don't want or care about fast charging and argue it kills the battery.

[@jaserkhelfa]

@@mv9533 If your thinking to switch maybe go for honor, they have google play services and generally look like huaweis in refernece to software and hardware

I use my Huawei mate 20 pro since middle of December 2018 kept from day1 in 360 protective case so is still in pristine/immaculate shape on 24th of July 2024. Battery life still enough for whole day 7am-23:59pm of moderate use texts /phone calls / including some KZbin, emails etc... I am considering purchase Huawei p30 pro next as in my opinion huawei are or at least were the most reliable android phones ever! I bet 8 out of 10 huawei phones users will agree with me. Thanks for your very nice review. 👊🏻💯😺❤👍

[@doozeruk2000]

Great review.. It was way ahead of its time.. Just ordered my 3rd (and this time refurbished) p30 pro, feels like a natural progression would be Honor 5magic pro, but at 3 times the price it's really not worth it for me

[@ashdoestech]

Thanks! Yes I agree, was ahead of the competition in many ways. I really enjoyed using this phone, and if I had to use one now I'd be fine with it. I used the Honor Magic 5 Lite which was great (apart from the camera) so I imagine the pro would be a lot better. But I agree, with how good the P30 Pro was, it would be hard to justify it

[@dickedits]

Honor magic5 pro is probably the best phone in the market rn, if you find it for 800 dollars brand new then get it, i found one for that much and this phone has no match,

[@RoyFJ65]

Still worth it, no issues here and taking fantastic pictures as ever.

[@jamarranger]

Recently replaced my beloved P30 Pro with a HONOR 90, 512 GB and 12 GB Ram, mostly because of a small chip on the screen and being stuck on Android 10. Honestly I miss my P30 Pro big time, their really isn't much difference in overall performance, and I prefer the P30 pros camera. I much prefer the feel of the P30 Pro in my hand too, it just feels premium and right compared to the HONOR. I still use my P30 pro for work purposes, it really is the GOAT.

[@ashdoestech]

I'd like to look at the Honor 90, I'll have to wait until the price comes down ha!

[@johnlee701]

I'm in a similar position. Looking to get a new phone because of P30 stuck in Android 10. Absolute shame as its a brilliant phone and even at 3 times the price the newer phones aren't actually any better. Might be a bit of an improvement but not a big jump worthy of investing. Because Huawei phones were are so much better than the competition I suspect that's the reason they were suddenly a national threat and not for the reasons they were claiming.

[@jamarranger]

Agree with that 100%. A real coincidence they started blackballing Huawei when they became the No1 best selling Mobile brand in the world. 🤔

[@ashdoestech]

@jamarranger does seem that way. I’d probably still have a Huawei now if they still had GMS, loved my P20 Pro

Being a new S24 Ultra user upgraded from my Nothing Phone 1 (I still plan on keeping it due to its software and aesthetics) I do miss my P30 Pro which was a beast. Planning on getting the cameras and screen fixed as well as the battery replaced. Thanks for this review!

[@johnlee701]

After 4 years of use I still love the P30 Pro but I'm reluctantly considering a new phone. Absolutely nothing wrong with what I have other than a couple of apps are not available and two of them I really need to have. It seems there is an update or some sort of restriction blocking some apps which are available on every other android phone including cheap Samsung's.

[@ashdoestech]

Yeah it's a shame as it's a fantastic phone!

[@kosts2]

Has anyone had problems with Bluetooth on the P30 Pro? Because I did. Even when it was new, it handled LDAC and APTX HD codecs poorly. A lot worse than other smartphones. Connection was unstable, and range was lower than in other smartphones. But it became worse after battery replacement. Bluetooth with LDAC had only 1 meter range, if distance is longer connection just interrupted. I think bluetooth is the only weak feature in this smartphone.

[@artdogg50]

How is or was the battery on that phone if you still have it? It's one of the first phones I can remember with fast charging and the arguments are always faster charging kills the battery too fast. Some in the comments say that they had to replace the battery, but here and other places say their battery is fine after 3 or 4 years. 🤔

[@scottsews]

I had the P40 lite e, even with no Google it was the best phone I ever owned. Sadly it got damaged and Huawei don't release low end phones now, when I sell a lung and a kidney to pay my rent what is left over I'll buy the P60 lol

[@wobble108]

Lol yeah I looked at the prices but boy there good phones. How did you get on with having no google access? Samsung have gone down hill price wise and I was looking at honor quality wisenot as good as huawei.

[@scottsews]

@@wobble108 with the exception of my banking app I was able to get what I wanted from the app gallery, then Monese and Curve came along and there was work around access to my bank. Obviously I wasn't able to use KZbin but I was able to get daily motion and tiktok. It really wasn't as bad as I thought, and interestingly anytime I accessed anything Google connected it instantly tried to find out where I was and asked for location access. I will eventually get a Huawei phone I think although they will never make them cheap again they will make a phone at least a slightly cheaper version of their flagship model.

However, do not ever forget that Leica or Leitz, Wetzlar, Germany, invented the 35mm film camera in 1903 (it was Prof. Barnack) Leica still is one of the leading manufacturer for cameras, microscopes, and lenses for amateur and professional applications. I had the latest Samsung 23 pro ultra phone, but I am back to the P30Pro and was lucky to get a factory new one of these excellent phones. It is still excellent if you do not want to show off with the latest phone which is obsolete in a year. Last not least phones are just phones and cameras are for the serious photographer.

Hands down the best phone I ever got. I purchased it during the first covid lockdown in 2020 as an upgrade to a Samsung Galaxt S7 Edge (another phone I loved dearly for many years). 4 years later and the P30 Pro still delivers a full day battery on medium usage, runs every single app I need and is stacked up to the brim with photos. Maybe the camera quality has decreased significantly from regular wear and tear and simply by comparison with newer smartphones and it's the only reason I'm considering switching to a Google Pixel 8 Pro. Other than that - Huawei P30 Pro is simply an amazing device!!

Loved my p30pro until an update broke the focus on my camera. I was using it for product photography, and it became almost useless. I tried everything to get it back to normal, and researched online. Seems like it hit quite a few users but not everyone according to these comments. I wonder if they count how much photos you've taken or something. I loved the camera so much till I'm considering getting a new one, but I'm not sure that would be a wise choice considering the fact that after 3 yrs of using the camera packed up due to update.

Good review. Didn't realise Emui 12 was based on Android 10 🤔. Had my P30 since June '19. Camera has been great for surveying work, especially the wide angle.

This phone I offered a family member is a beast indeed! Hard to replace it. Exactly the only downside is the software not up to date. I don't know if there are custom rom

[@ashdoestech]

Yeah definitely. I may get another one and do a 2024 review 😂

[@user-np1pu9cy4v]

It's 2024 and I still love to use it!

[@hacylon]

Currently having battery drain issues after using the p30 pro since start of covid. Around 3 years+unfortunately this is the last gen for Google services. Do you recommend s23plus or huawei p60 pro? Sadly, p60 pro doesnt have GMS.

[@ashdoestech]

I would go for the Galaxy purely for having Google services. I loved using the P30 Pro, and if the P60 had GMS, I'd consider it.

[@hacylon]

Thanks! Think will go for s23plus then as an upgrade. Its so unfortunate that p60pro doesn't have GMS currently due to the sanction. Hopefully in the near future it will change

[@bilalmustafa7334]

Used P40 Pro, Mate 50 Pro, P60 Pro and now using P30 Pro as I sold P60 Pro needed some money and I have to buy some cheaper alternative and I found Fresh condition P30 Pro. In hands feel is almost similar yes 120 HZ and Camera quality is not on the Par with P60 Pro but Battery life, display quality is almost same.

[@dianeloranas9486]

Hi, can you teach me how to update my Huawei p30 pro (VOG-L04) to emui 12?

[@prdobymat]

Worth to buy it 2nd hand? It’s in mint condition, new battery. I was wondering if the banking apps arr surely working. Like google pay or curve. For gaming i do not care, battery seems amazing as well as the camera

[@Tony_Fisher]

Banking apps still work fine on mine, as does everything else that I could possibly need. Have really enjoyed using the P30 Pro from new. Curse Donald Trump for his stupidity over Google and Huawei!

[@manwell235]

As long as its an international version, banking apps will work well. And it will still get updates through Playstore for a lot of years b4 Android 10 become obsolete

[@KiraThe7th.]

Just a small remark for you my brother: try focusing on the device you're talking about and show it more than you show yourself (nothing wrong with you ofc but we're here for the device obviously and we'd like to see it the most) i hope you get my point and good luck with your KZbin journey good sir 🙏🏼

[@ashdoestech]

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it!

[@luisayoub5360]

Huawei EMUI is the best UI it's smooth and had no complications like other UI's

[@yates6608]

I had the P30 lite and I do miss that phone, it was brilliant

[@ashdoestech]

I did a very on that a while ago, I agree. It was pretty decent 👌

[@antibolsevism9814]

P30pro is literally that good old mercedes but in the phones sphere .

[@nahimmohammed9345]

Absolute monster of a phone. Battery lasts forever even after 3 years. Works like a dream.

[@ashdoestech]

I wish I still had mine!

[@harrypalmer1]

I still have the P30, and it's been good. Miner's on Emui 12. Battery does need charging by the early evening though.

[@ashdoestech]

That's not bad. For a near 5 year old phone 👌

[@cicco1838]

this is by far the best I have ever had.

[@grahamking6837]

Just bought a P30 pro, upgraded from a P20. Only issue is that the voice activated hey Google doesn't work, anybody have a solution on how I can resolve this please?

[@user-hf5pt7np8t]

One of the most strong phone of Huawei, it's a real treat of iphone.

[@MDLhu]

4 years and going. best phone ever! I used to replace them yearly. not this one!!

[@kerbsidemotors9249]

Looked around and if I could get rid of carrier customisations on my unlocked phone-I'd keep it. Looking around lots of phones like Nokia xr21 or X30 are a downgrade. Still looking for something better. As not aware of custom from options as locked bootloader.

[@Stalled-wm3qd]

Just bought a secondhand Huawei P30 Pro in place of an Oppo phone and finding out how to transfer data from the Oppo is extremely difficult. Yes, I know about downloading the Clone Phone App and have talked to both Huawei and Oppo but still at a loss as how to get it done. Any ideas please?

[@wobble108]

Back it up to Google then download to new phone

[@nicolegarcia5132]

Hi! Can someone please let me know where can I buy this phone? Thank you :) excellent video

[@ashdoestech]

Thank you! I bought mine off eBay 😊

[@SpicyRoll-m4r]

This phone has a very excellent battery power efficiency..

[@wingowingo2928]

does it work with Google Play and Google services?

[@ashdoestech]

Yes, the P30 series were the last Huawei phones that supported Google services. All good! 👌

[@indysingh6801]

Hi need help.... do you know which other brands have the knock knock to take the screen shot?

[@mirandasworld]

thank you but i dont know how i will look because trees books clocks still life don't show skin tone quality and how we will look im going to have to try and find some selfie cam example videos before i can buy this

[@andika28100]

Hello guys, is it worth to 'downgrade' to this phone at this time, from iphone 13 reguler, to save money around $250 ?? Or should I stay on iphone 13 instead? Why p30 pro because I read a lot comments the battery is good for daily use and camera is still good enough for normal people? But is it worth to downgrade ? My only concern is there is no more security update. Thank you.

[@travelwithparashrb]

Half of the P30 Pro users worldwide is facing camera blur issue between 1X to 4.9X. The main camera is just blurred out !

[@madarsh5964]

After upgrading to emui 12 its taking blurred photos 😞

[@clnmnc]

the same happened with me.. I downgraded, changed the camera, nothing helped 😢

[@madarsh5964]

@@clnmnc 😢

[@glupilazni1399]

Is it me or camera degrade over time. Since I saw some forums where people suspect that it's on purpose degraded by software update did anyone tried to restore original android?

[@dejavoue88]

hate it beyond any phone i have ever had ..bloatware is a joke .it is not that good either, its a basic phone that tries to be a top end phone .also some other apps that cant be uninstalled, and shall we say rather intrusive .they cant even be switched off.not that this company has ever be caught out borrowing peoples information ,but some dodgy apps on this phone have made me bin it
