Huawei P30 Pro is the company’s flagship smartphone which was launched last month at an event in Paris, France. It comes with a quad-camera setup and top-of-the-line specifications and has almost everything that you expect in a smartphone.
While the phone comes with an impressive set of camera hardware, the DxO scores for the video part isn’t impressive. For the photo, P30 Pro scores 119 points and sits on top of the list. However, for Video, it scored 97 points, which is a point lower than its predecessor.
Now, Li Xiaolong, Vice President of Huawei’s smartphone product line, spoke about the issue of Huawei P30 Pro video recording scores during an interview with the media. He says that DxO believes that 4K mode greatly improves the resolution but the company does not regard 4K as the default mode.
Huawei believes that making 4K default isn’t the best setting for the users and thus, the default for video of P30 Pro is 1080p 30FPS which the company says is better and is more widely used. He adds that the company isn’t targeting DxO scores.
The Huawei P30 Pro features a 6.47-inch Full HD+ curved OLED display. It doesn’t have an earpiece and instead, it uses Acoustic Display Technology which emits sounds through the display using magnetic levitation.
Under the hood, the device is powered by the company’s own HiSilicon Kirin 980 octa-core processor along with 8GB of RAM and up to 512GB of internal storage. There is also support for storage expansion using Huawei’s NM Card.
Huawei has redesigned the tray: rather than a SIM tray where the two SIMs and or the NM Card are side-by-side, the tray of the P30 series is designed to fit in one Nano SIM on top and the NM Card or a second Nano SIM underneath.
In terms of optics, the P30 Pro has four camera sensors on the back panel – a 20MP f/2.2 ultra wide angle lens, a 40MP f/1.6 wide-angle lens, an 8MP f/3.4 5X telephoto, and a ToF depth-sensing camera. For selfies, it comes with a 32MP sensor with AI HDR+.

The P30 Pro runs Android 9 Pie-based EMUI 9.1 custom interface and is powered by a 4,200mAh battery with support for 40W fast-charging and support for 15W wireless fast charging.
