Huawei recently launched its flagship smartphone series — Huawei P30. The series has two smartphones — P30 and P30 and are slated to go on sale in China from 11th April. Meanwhile, the company is also gearing up to launch the device in other markets.
Now, a new report coming from local publication in China reveals that the company has prepared a stock of around 6 million units of Huawei P30 series smartphones. However, the stock is for the global markets and not only China.
It also adds that the Chinese giant is aiming to sell over 20 million units of the P30 series smartphones this year. Majority of these smartphones are being produced at Foxconn’s Zhengzhou plant in Henan.
The same plant is known for being the main source of Apple’s iPhone but Huawei seems to be taking advantage of Foxconn’s production line and capacity after the sharp decline in the demand of iPhone orders.
Huawei is now stocking up the P30 series units as it about to go on sale in various countries. To meet the demand and ensure smoother production and supply chain operations, it is recruiting people and is estimated to have over 50,000 employees.
The Huawei P30 will be available in three variants in China — 8GB RAM + 64GB storage for 3,988 Yuan (approximately $590); 8GB RAM + 128GB storage model costing 4,488 Yuan (approx. $665); and 8GB RAM + 256GB storage model priced at 4,988 Yuan (~$740).
On the other hand, the Huawei P30 Pro will be coming to China in options like 8GB RAM + 128GB storage; 8GB RAM + 256GB storage; and 8GB RAM + 512GB storage. The phones are expected to be priced at 5,588 Yuan (~$820), 6,288 Yuan (approx. $935) and 6,988 Yuan (approximately $1,040) respectfully.

Recently, during the Shanghai AWE 2019 Conference, Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei’s consumer business revealed that the company is planning to sell more than 250 million to 260 million units of its smartphones, in a combined sale of Huawei and Honor devices. With this, the company aims to become the top smartphone brand or grab a close second spot.
