Huawei branding

Agree, but I wonder why all of your pics are unbranded. I just go a new P30 pro only to find out that wide angle pics are branded with an ugly Huuawei Logo. What a disgrace! Can I fix this in settings anywhere?
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] skullmurdoc:
It's very easy! In the setting uncheck Add watermark
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Hybrid Soldier:
Those pictures are very beautiful, but all of it has post processing... I think that's unfair to see the "photo quality" when u modified the original pic.

Hi, when you look the phone overall, would you recommend it to someone else?

I am in a dilemma to buy the P30 pro or not.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] PanMarcinPL:
I had a lot of phones, recently Mi Mix 2, Mi 9, Mi Mix 3, and now Huawei P30 pro and I would recommend it to anyone. Camera it's great, plus display, battery, everything works perfectly!
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Lookasso:
Hi, been a while, I don't get email notifications for the answers here, so I just forgot this thread.

First of all, I must sadly say, Emui 10 did not improve quality, and now there are strange bugs.

Well, I still feel that for social media and blog I would prefer a phone which does it reasonably right without too much edit (just some quick trick in the phone, and post). If someone knows one, my thanks.

I only know the Samsung (btw the Note 10+ is even better than the S10) but I have other reasons not to buy it.

But let's say that I'm willing to see what's the buzz here about editing.

Is there a good free or cheap app for Android, for edit and presets?

And this program which you all mention, Lightroom, are there cheaper alternatives? I find the idea of paying 12 euro monthly forever a bit intimidating.

Now some replies.

Do you mean that you use to express someone else's opinion?

Btw, I see a pattern in your answers.

"You don't understand anything of photography"

"That's your personal opinion"

Sure.

You could try to write from the P30 Pro.

Maybe it would give more warmth to your answers, like it gives it to its pictures.

Just saying...

Fair enough, I'm a professional cook and I generally hate to walk with my knives.

You might be right about the editing thing.

I admit I just took for granted that it was too difficult (more passages, afaik not possible on the phone, learning curve which I have no patience for -because I'm a perfectionist) and so I never tried.

Glad there is people who can help with that.

Thank you for your warmth.

I also have Latin blood. We have it in the DNA ;)

[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] dougm1970:
may i ask your reasons ?

reason i ask is i am tempted by this new samsung note 10 lite...and selling this p30 pro.

i always got great shots straight out of my old s8+...and great with motion too...like dogs jumping.

i miss it.

i find its a lot of messing with camera to get right shot in right situation and i always dislike, especially indoors, things like skin tone and shadows....i do use lightroom, it does help lowering yellowing tint...but i honestly think looking back i got more pleasing shots from my old s8+

i'd only pause on note 10 lite as its got an exynos processor, and its not got a good reputation for battery life.....and thats the best thing about my p30 pro..exceptional battery life..and i'm always on phone all day long with one thing or another.

be interesting what this upcoming s20 brings too.

heres a few samsung pics i took on my older phone....i dont think i'd get them as pleasing to my eye with this p30 pro, as powerful as it is....maybe i just like the samsung style...but i was always confident of its camera and i am never confident of a good quick snap with the p30 pro.

[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] Lookasso:
thanks! can you use filters there, to automatically correct the yellowishness of the p30 pro, like people here do with lightroom?

Sure.

I use the phone a lot outdoors, lot of Google Maps too. I need a very bright display. The Note10 and 10+ are ok, similar to S10. But P30 Pro is MUCH brighter.

Also, the Note 10 has got no expandable storage (so if it dies I lose all what is there) and the 10+ is too big for me.

One reason WAS also that P30 Pro WAS much more precise in the GPS. With S10 and the two Note 10, when I open Google Map, the blue dot looks always in the wrong direction, so if I want to quickly pick the phone to understand if I have to go right or left, it's game over.

Unfortunately since EMUI 10 also the P30 Pro has got this problem and even worse. So now I am very tempted to just get rid of it.

One HUGE reason for the P30 Pro was the NaviDot. I can't live without it. Anyway there is an App which does something similar and even better, but it needs too many critical permissions, that's why I am not quite sure about it.

So I am still sticking to the P30 Pro despite:

- yellowish pics

- inferior Videos (Note 10+ is way better. And I am doing more Videos than Pictures lately)

- zooming in the Video is jumpy and too quick compared to Samsung, 5x is in most cases (and specially with videos) too much, and less than that is digital and ie 2x is better in Samsung

- Fingerprint Reader less effective than Samsung and than the ones on the back of the phone

- call audio with this sound on display is not as good

- Bluetooth doesn't connect automatically when you change device.

- it is almost impossible to select a text (or for example a number I want to call) from a webpage if there is a link near it. For some reason the P30 Pro seems to have been specifically programmed to always select links.

- something else which I am forgetting

So. I guess I will also wait for the Note 10 Lite and see.

The Mate 30 Pro should also be a nice choice, if I find it used (cheaper and somebody went through the hassle of installing google for me).

Shame, I could get one for a good price but now I will reconsider it.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] carlosthwaites:
Have u seen the comparison with p30 Pro new edition on YouTube. Think that the emui 10.1 update could possibly give back some quality in images
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] SteMPG:
No, not so far. Not many reviews for p30 pro new edition on Youtube. I think it is not yet avaible in most countries, i've heard you can only buy it in Germany.

Anyway, emui 10.1 started to roll out for standard p30 pro. Let's see what happens.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] carlosthwaites:
I've seen a few of the comparison with camera with p30 Pro NE and regular p30 Pro and although they have the same hardware the p30 Pro NE pictures seem better in some cases. All I can put that down to is the emui 10.1 so hoping 10.1 on our regular makes a improvement

Quick one with Aperture Mode. Haven't really had a chance to try it out too much yet, but first impressions are overwhelmingly positive. I think this one's a keeper.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] fastmike:
Very interesting input and samples from you guys! I was about to order a P30 Pro to replace my Note 8 since my main use is photo, but downloading all available P30 Pro photos I can find, and comparing them with the Note 8, I realize the P30 Pro is not giving better shots when viewed on a computer at 100% magnification.

The only advantages in term of quality is SOC when using the 5x zoom since optical (but 8MP extrapolated to 10...), and of course at night! But most of my pics being during day time, I better save the 900 euros for something else. If I add to the balance, the video and slow motion, results are both in favor of the 'old' Note 8. So, this is a no go for me. Many thanks
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] fastmike:
Nice dog! To compare, I just took a quick shot of one of my dogs with my Note 8. Looks like I got more details, but I don't have your shot straight from the P30 Pro nor Exif data to compare...
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] AntonyW999:
Thanks. I was quite impressed with the detail compared to the S10+. Here's another one to compare.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] AntonyW999:
I "upgraded" from the Note 9 to the S10+ mainly for the extra camera but I wasn't wildly impressed with it. Fingerprint scanner isn't as good and the wide angle camera produces too much distortion around the edges. If I had it to do again I'd probably have kept the Note. :rolleyes: Having said that I'm really enjoying the zoom on the P30 and I'm looking forward to trying some night shots this weekend.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] isko01:
Can you tell me which phone is better for camera, S10+ or P30 Pro. You have bout of them.
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] AntonyW999:
P30 Pro

I'd choose the P30 Pro for it's better zoom and low light performance. I also think there's less of the fish eye distortion effect on the wide angle photos. Standard shots are very close between the two. Can't comment on the front camera as I don't take many selfies. You'll get good shots from the P30 in places you wouldn't from the S10.

[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] wajeehuzkhan:

Can anyone help me with ISO settings?

1. In pro mode, it only goes up to 6400 but in Photo mode, it can literally see in the dark at 200000 ISO but I can't control the shutter speed. How can I control the shutter speed at high ISO?

2. Which makes me question, is it really using 200000 ISO or is it just very good noise reduction and dynamic range?

3. What decides whether it tries to do sharpening after taking the photo? I have found that the extra exposure makes a big improvement to noise levels but I have no control over it.

4. Finally what's the deal with the max ISO on p30 pro being one stop higher than p30? They are the same sensor.

ok I'm really quite happy with the camera

the camera can get some really great shots, BUT you may need to work on getting the focus right among other things.

Coming from the Pixel 2, the pixel was king of pointing the camera at something and getting a great photo. the P30 pro will need your help to be able to do that at times.

In ideal light other phones may take a slightly better picture, but the difference is minimal to say the least.

In low light the P30 Pro stands out.

5x and 10x zoom are great, though most of the time you'll only use 5x

The whole 50x zoom being a tool for perverts that is going around in the media is part of some smear campaign as you'd need a tripod for that mode to be useful at all.

Even in 10x, some may struggle without a tripod.

But I am very happy with the quality of photos I have so far.

I havent printed any off yet though
[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] AntonyW999:
Favourite camera

This is absolutely my favourite camera on any phone. It's incredibly versatile. My only niggle is the completely different colours you get when using the wide angle lens. Which means macro shots suffer the same. The sky on the wide angle is ridiculously off as is the flower. The Galaxy S10+ flower shot for comparison is the correct shade.

Hey there got some night shots in very bad conditions... It was raining all day long and it's really moisty in the air still...

This. Not much between them when its ideal light. P30 Pro is more versatile than the S10 when it comes to rear cameras. But in low light P30 Pro blows the S10 away.

When it comes to selfie cam, the S10 is miles ahead though

[Huawei P30 Pro Real Life Review] papavales:
Well I got mine 2 days ago 8/256gb breathing crystal. Now about the camera is too early for conclusion but i think that my old p20 pro has better results by far in medium light shots auto mode. I m impressed with all these zoom and improved night mode but dissapointed with medium light photos, which looks like the photos were taken with a mid-range device. I hope i m wrong because it's too early to judge or will fixed with future update.

Hi,

So I'm planning to get this phone, I've been using Huawei P9 and I loved it due the fact that I can use the manual mode but I really want to upgrade so that I can use the wide and telephoto capability.

So my question are,

1. Does the photo produce over-sharpening result?

2. When you take photos in RAW mode is it better since I like editing in Lightroom, Is there any limit when editing in the lightroom?

3. Does the image look natural or look over saturate in daylight? Some review I saw there's like yellow tint in the photo

Also ,is there any photographer here like using the P30 Pro camera?

I know the camera won't be perfect but I hope that it is good enough for me since I really like taking photos and hope it can perform well in most condition.

P30 Pro camera resolution in default mode

For me, main P30 Pro camera drawback is resolution setting. 10mp setting is highest resolution you can set while wide angle and zoom features are accessible. This is something you don't find out from the phone commercials! When you set 40mp resolution zoom selector disappear. 10mp comparing to 40mp pictures have significantly less details. 1

Obviously P30 Pro camera app should have "Auto resolution" setting to produce highest possible resolution depending on used camera sensor and depending on photo mode. 10mp can be perfectly OK in dark conditions but in full daylight it is really not good choice. Camera should go to native sensor resolution whenever it is possible and limit resolution when there is reason for that, like low light or zoom or anything else that counts here.
