Huawei introduced us on March 26 to its new huawei P30 family composed of the Huawei P30, the huawei P30 Pro that we already had the chance to analyze and the smallest of all, the huawei P30 Lite. The protagonist of this analysis is the middle brother of the family, the huawei P30 , a phone that shares many things with its Pro version, but that stays below in many others.

The Huawei P30 is much more manageable than the huawei P30 Pro.If you are trying to decide between a Huawei P30 and a  huawei P30 Pro or even between this phone and one of its direct rivals, the Galaxy S10pay attention because I spent a few days with the huawei P30 Pro and I will tell you my impressions on this phone to help you let's decide.

Huawei P30 Pro Specs

Small but colorful design

The Huawei P30 is at first sight identical to the huawei P30 Pro except for its dimensions, which are much more measured with 71.36 millimeters wide, 149.1 millimeters high and 7.57 millimeters thick. However, it is an evolution compared to its predecessor, the Huawei P20. The previous model had a screen of 5.8 inches, while the huawei P30 Pro raised the screen diagonal to 6.1 inches.

                                                          

Huawei has "stretched" the screen and cut the frames thanks to the inclusion of a notch in the form of a drop to house the front camera. The back is practically clean thanks to the insertion of the fingerprint sensor on the screen, something to be appreciated if also the color of your huawei P30 Pro is one of the premieres in the range as our unit, the beautiful color Pearl White.

But what I liked most about this phone is its manageability. Unlike the huawei P30 Pro that was more bulky, the Huawei P30 is very comfortable, which makes its handling with one hand or when taking pictures is much more pleasant.

Its size also facilitates the grip and thanks to this has prevented the phone from falling out of my hands as it sometimes happens with other phones of greater size. However, and as it happened with the huawei P30 Pro, it is somewhat slippery due to the glass that makes up its back, so the ideal is to take it with a case (also to prevent scratching).

                                      

Huawei P30 Pro Review

The Huawei P30 has a classic earphone connector.

The fingerprint sensor works fast, much better than the first Huawei model that debuted it, the Mate 20 Pro, but yes, it is somewhat uncomfortable to use until you get to it and get used to its position. Finally, another important detail to highlight about the design of this phone in front of his older brother, is that the Huawei P30 includes classic headphone jack and includes a pair of these with audio mini jack in the box.

Performance: Nothing to envy your brother, except a little RAM

The Huawei P30 shares guts with the huawei P30 Pro, but unlike this one, there is only a single memory configuration available. In this way, the phone has the Kirin 980 processor, accompanied by 6GB of RAM and an internal memory of 128GB expandable by Nano Memory cards (those of the house).

With this power, the Huawei P30 has given me an excellent performance, loaded with fluidity either with low-resource operations such as surfing the Internet or using instant messaging applications, as with more burdensome actions such as running heavy games or photo editors.

Next we can compare his results in the synthetic tests with some of his rivals of similar configuration. The Kirin 980 chip is not the most powerful processor in the comparison, and it falls short of its big brother with 8GB of RAM, but it is in good position.

Battery duration

The Huawei P30 has a battery of 3, 600mAh somewhat smaller than the huawei P30 Pro and unlike this one, the Mate 20 Pro or the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus, does not allow us to charge other devices with it using it as an external battery.

In the use of day to day, the phone arrived without problem to the 24 hours of use, although it is certain that if we gave him enough work, especially with the camera, the battery arrived at the end of the day almost in its limit. In our continuous video playback test, the cell phone lasted 18 hours and 15 minutes, a result similar to that of the iPhone XS Max with 17 hours and 32 minutes, but less than 20 hours of the huawei P30 Pro

Regarding the load times, the Huawei P30 takes to reach the full charge from scratch with the charger that is included in the box for less than an hour. Next we compare the results of battery life with other phones with similar amperage and power.
