[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] shem2409:
Just got mine today ( moving from P20 Pro) and I absolutely love it. The camera is brilliant, selfies are much improved and the video quality is night and day compared to p20 pro. I have loads of apps installed and everything works as it should with buttery smooth performance. Prior to getting the phone I was slightly concerned about the oscillating display technology instead of a speaker but it works just fine. The only downgrade from p20 pro imo is the speaker ( I preferred the stereo setup) and the lack of notification LED. I am still getting used to the fingerprint scanner as well but it does seem to be slightly slower as well.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] AntonyW999:
Had to get one because I couldn't resist the camera. I was a bit dubious because a few of the reviews had mentioned problems getting Nova Launcher to work. So far I've had no issues whatsoever. The camera is amazing, overall speed is quicker than my S10+ and the fingerprint scanner is faster and more reliable too. Only negative for me is the lack of decent stereo speakers but it's not a deal breaker considering all the positives. Everyone seems to be making a big deal of the difference in screen resolution between this and the S10 but considering the default resolution on the S10 is identical I think most people wouldn't even realise. I'm enjoying this phone much more.

[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] drcldrcl:
The best phone on the market easily! Camera awesome, quality zoom photos which I thought I would never use as much as I do.. Battery life beyond every expectations, getting 11-13h on screen time, and the best thing is when recharging, it takes just 55mins... Speed of opening apps and everything else is just fascinating.. It would have been perfect if they put 500+ppi screen and stereo speakers, but those are not as important for me as the things I have mentioned above.. Overall 9,7/10
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] cisco kidd:
For those of you who have now had the device a while are you happy, would you purchase it again?
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] robbieismyname:
I think it's a great device.. Only wish I could customise it my liking
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] knoodrake:
Overall, not as well finished and well thought and robust as samsung premium (had S8 before), especially with everything software, in dozens of small things here and there. That being said, still overall awesome and really well done, especially the photo hardware/sensors.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Maher.k22:
Definitely, in a heartbeat.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] cisco kidd:
I since went out and bought one, have had a bit more than 3 weeks. It's a solid device , I am enjoying it. Everything works pretty decent. I have the 6/128 version. Love the battery life, have Nova Launcher prime installed , running dark theme. Camera is great, I love the zoom useful for me big time. May still buy the Mi 9T Pro or Zenfone 6 when it releases but for now happy
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Maher.k22:
A great tip for the camera, especially when zooming, always use HDR found in the modes menu. You'll get much much sharper results.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Maximus41:
I regret buying the P30 pro and will be selling it shortly..
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Maher.k22:
How come?
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Maximus41:
Firstly I bought it for the camera and it is not as good as my LG v30 with gcam mod and secondly it can't be rooted..
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Maher.k22:
Did you update it? Updates did it a great favor.

Few weeks ago, I was too close to trading it for a Pixel 3 XL, but after trying my friend's Pixel, I decided to keep it.

As for rooting, that doesn't bother me, but if it's essential for you, then I hear you. Any idea what you want to trade it for?
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Maximus41:
It is on the latest firmware. I think Samsung s10. I will install the gcam app and hopefully root it also..
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Maher.k22:
Yeah, if it's the Snapdragon version, then definitely go with it. I had the exynos S10 Plus and the camera was trash, and there's no reliable Gcam port for it. My wife is still stuck with her S10, but she doesn't care that much about the camera, so it's all good.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Maximus41:
To be honest I've not really spent much time looking around as had a bit of a gutfull

Of phones... I did also like my LG v30. Great camera and easily replaced the rear glass and battery. I may go that route also. It would be great if the P30 Pro bootloader is again unlockable as then maybe camera could be worked on to improve it. I will have a think as to my next move lol
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Maher.k22:
I was also looking at the OnePlus 7 Pro, but none of the phones I looked at came close to the versatility and power of the P30 Pro. I take lots of indoor pictures of my kids, and indoors and in low light conditions, the capability of this phone shines.

If I was you, I would wait few months, not only better flagships are coming, but the prices of current flagships will drop as well.

[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] POLO_i780:
Something nobody is mentioning here is the new EROFS File System, which could explain how the P30 Pro somehow feels even faster than what the Mate 20 Pro was. This file system is part of EMUI9.1

it looks to me that there is a difference in colour when i shoot in 1x vs. 2x/3x/4x/5x (probably due to different f-stops of the cameras?)
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] ovidiubuligan:
I a having thr device since 1 week now and seeing the problems that should be addressed asap.

Photo quality is only good in verry low light.

Daylight ok.

Dusk is the lighting which it struggles.

I have compared this to a op6t and op6t is a lot better

.

This is my first post and Icannot link external images, so you will need to add https in front of the links

(i think with night mode)

The midtones are nowhere to be found, and the pink artifacts on the watter are awfull

This is from op6t received image via facebook (i think with night mode)

//ibb.co/y8BN3BM
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] TLJester:
Try using PRO mode first.

Also try other settings. Try night mode off as well. you really need to take the same photo with all these settings to compare.

Auto is not always the best (im a photographer and often have to go to PRO mode to NOT get a bad photo in challenging light scenarios)

Zoom Samples | From wideangle 0.6x to 50x digital zoom.

I made two videos to see performance in zooming. First one is made out of 12 photos of different zoom levels ( 0.6x, 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 7.5x, 10x, 20x, 30x, 40x, 50x) and it is made to looks fluently zooming. Second one video is for those, who want to see differences in zooming with P30 Pro and P20 Pro.

P30 Pro vs P20 Pro zooming comparison

https://youtu.be/6AIQE4wkT48
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] isko01:
This is one of the best photo comparison on YT. Thx a lot bro :) i hooe you weill make with P30 Pro vs S10+ and P30 Pro Vs Mate 20 Pro.

And very weird thing, P30 Pro is bad at x3 and 4x zoom and P20 Pro is much more better. Why? Will this be fixed in future updates?

I know the P20 Pro have optical zoom up to x3 zoom but P30 Pro have uo to 5x. :/
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] awojtas:
Bugs on v124 with p30 Pro vlog09:

- When in Pro mode, you have to tap for exposure before the Wide/1x/5x zoom on screen toggle appears.

- Wide in Pro mode has extremely aggressive noise reduction and over sharpening which makes the photos look rubbish. Compare to Wide in Photo mode which are less like a watercolour image. Wide in Photo mode is excellent.

- Photo mode doesn't let you change to Wide/1x/5x when the main camera resolution is 40mp instead of 10mp which is silly. It should let you change anytime. However, you can work around this by changing to Wide in Pro then back to Photo, and it will stay Wide. It will keep it at 20mp for wide too. This trick doesn't work for 5x zoom unfortunately.

Not bugs but observations:

The raw files for the 40mp main sensor have tremendous latitude and dynamic range. You can pull back highlights like nothing else. I'm used to shooting on full frame cameras (5d, 5dmk2, 6d) and m43 for context, and this has me impressed. There's not much noise, and the noise I see is quite pleasant, like a Samsung isocell sensor where it is a nice texture rather than distracting.

However the white balance is completely screwed on the 40mp raws. The balance is different from the centre to the edges so near impossible to get right in Lightroom. There's some weird green tint going on with shadows, and it's very difficult to get a warm yellow hue to an image (think: golden dusk sunlight reflecting off an old white painted villa) without it turning either sickly green or magenta.

And if you do get the white balance how you like it, too bad, the edges will now be green or magenta because of the aforementioned colour shift between centre and edges.

Note, the jpgs are fine, so Huawei are doing some serious processing to fix that up. Also saying that so you don't think my p30 Pro is bung, if that was true, then the jpgs would also be out of whack but they're spot on.

It'd be nice if Adobe figured out a calibration/process profile that fixed this up.

The raw files for the wide sensor have a huge amount of vignetting. Easy to fix however. The raw files have much richer greens in particular than the jpgs. Sharpness is very good. This sensor is a bit noisier than the 40mp one, but still really impressive. No white or colour balance issues.

The raw files for the 5x sensor barely need adjusting. There's some pincushion to tweak and a bit of contrast to add but that's it. Sharpness is impressive. Again white balance is fine.

50x zoom
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] olafsand:
Also 50x zoom :)
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Arni99:
The primary camera is used for up to 2x zoom, and the tele-camera for 5x and longer. For intermediate zoom factors, the P30 Pro combines image data from both cameras.

[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] olafsand:
No
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Arni99:
Am using AI-OFF mode only due to the very naturally looking not artificially saturated greens, reds and blues.

AI-OFF is more Fuji/Canon like colorwise. More true to life compared to the popping photos AIs or Samsungs scene enhancer usually produce.

In reviews it seems that 99% of us have already been brainwashed/conditioned over the years thinking non-popping colors = bad photo.

The real world is not as colorful as it is being presented on photos all over the internet ;).
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Vihru:
what is best mode for good pictures? 40mpix or 10mpix?
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] AntonyW999:
10

If you switch to 40mpix you lose out on Huawei's AI processing which is way better than it was on the P20 Pro. I'm getting better photos leaving the setting on 10. I used to get fluorescent green grass all the time on the P20. They've come a long way in a very short time.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] AntonyW999:
The Zoom is amazing!

Normal, 5X & 10X. This is hands down the best camera on a smartphone right now.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] tainka:
Did you notice that the skin tones on photos is very pale? How can I improve it? Is it possible? It is happening when I take pictures at home in decent lighting.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Kakadzamba:
Same problem here. My only workaround is manually changing "saturation" in the edit mode... It's a bit of a pain, but it takes around 20 seconds per photo... I'm just wondering if it's possible to adjust the saturation level (either through system settings or an app) so that the photos are more saturated by default?
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Hybrid Soldier:
I believe this is due to the "Asian standard" of photos, which Huawei applies.

They have a different skin tone and enjoy the use of wax-like filters.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] tainka:
This is crazy, the skin tones are scary. I tried to change it in every way possible but it is impossible. The camera has a strange yellow- green tint and people look like corpses. The only option is to edit every photo after i take it. I love the night mode in this phone and the ×5 zoom but this ruins everything. I gave up on the p30 pro because of this and got the note 10 plus- night and day difference. Will miss the ×5 zoom and the amaizing aurora color.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] ecopat:
Is it possible to take a photo with maximum zoom without the help of a tripod?
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Noexcusses:
Only if you can stand still better than a tripod!!
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Hybrid Soldier:
Definitely photos of people is not the strong point of the P30 PRO. The details are weak and even turning off all the filters the skin looks like you said ... What I usually do is edit the photos in the snapseed app to get the result I hope for, but it's still a bit far away.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Kakadzamba:
Well, it may not be the case. When I send a photo from p30 pro to my wife's s8 colours look natural :) it seems it's a thing of the screen. I'm just wondering what photos are like when you print them. Really no one knows an app that can edit multiple photos at the same time (same filter/setting copied to a number of photos). Lightroom can do that, but only the premium version.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Noexcusses:
Worst photos than mate 20 pro....

I don't believe this
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] jacobtf:
Very much so. I've taken a lot of pictures at 10x zoom and they turn out great.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] djingonthenet:
A few taken on our hols, almost all were taken using auto mode AI on and using different lenses from wide angle to 10x zoom, the rock stack, pint of beer and west beach taken using aperture mode and few taken using the silky water exposure (hand held using a barrier to steady). Again a lot were hit and miss when focusing but majority were good.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] tainka:
I tried to send them to my second devise s9 plus, they look a little bit better because of the amoled screen. still, not good at all. it is a pain to edit each photo after I take it. anyway I sold this device for now.
