UPDATE: Huawei has released the following statement to theVerge regarding this matter.
We’ve been made aware that there might have been some misunderstanding regarding our recent HUAWEI P30 Series teaser posters. We would like reiterate that those are, in fact, only teaser posters, and are only intended to hint at the unique new features that will come with the HUAWEI P30 Series. Huawei has acquired the licenses to the original images and the posters are artistic renditions of said features only.
We’d like to take this opportunity to thank the media for their interest in our posters. We have much to announce in the coming weeks. Please stay tuned!
In a recent P30 teaser, Huawei has put some light on its super zoom capabilities. Everyone was quite stunned after looking at the impressive shot that was seen in the teaser. They are continuously teasing the shining features of the smartphone via multiple teasers. Last week they shared a video showing its periscope “Super Zoom” camera. However, this time users caught Huawei red-handed with the alleged use of DSLR photo to represent P30 camera samples.
As revealed by GSMArena, the camera samples aren’t taken from the P30 or P30 Pro. These images, in turn, were shot on a DSLR camera and belong to some professional photographers. A volcano image was taken from Getty images – a supplier of professional photographs and stock images. Similarly, the beautiful image of kids with duck was taken from Jake Olson, a professional photographer. Some other samples were also used under the same fate and were shot by some other camera.
Well, this isn’t new as we have previously found the company marketing DSLR photos as their smartphone camera samples. Last year, they posted a DSLR shot claiming it to be taken from Nova 3. In another incident, a Canon EOS 5D Mark III photo was promoted as taken from Huawei P9’s Leica certified camera. Huawei’s VP of Global Product Marketing, Clement Wong also teased a photo of the moon last month and claimed it to be taken from P30 camera without any additional support.
The Huawei P30 Pro is expected to come with Quad rear cameras with its new 10x hybrid zoom capabilities, 12 GB RAM and a 6.5-inch display. Its sibling P30 will sport a rear triple-camera setup, a 24-megapixel selfie shooter, 6.1-inch OLED panel, 8GB RAM and expected to be a 5G ready device. Both the devices will feature waterdrop-style notch and an optical in-screen fingerprint sensor. All three siblings – Huawei Mate 30, Mate 30 Pro and Mate 30 Lite reported to launch on March 26 this year.
