All four current members of Honor 30 Series (Honor 30 Pro+, Honor 30 Pro, Honor 30, Honor 30S) will be 5G with integrated 5G modems, using Kirin990, Kirin985 and Kirin820. Honor 30 Lite (probably 4G using Kirin810, with AMOLED) will join the series later.

Honor 30 Pro Plus will be positioned differently and will be priced significantly higher than Honor 30 Pro. Influenced by the market research by Honor Marketing Team, Honor 30 Pro Plus will have some unusual enhancement to the already very advanced Honor 30 Pro's camera setup, probably even with a 90Hz AMOLED screen.

Nanidafuq, 03 Apr 2020Not really, it ain't the best or there but it's okay. I think he means the ones that are used ... moreThe AMOLED on Redmi K20 is a decent one, better then those on many of Samsung's low-end M series and A series phones.

The AMOLED on Redmi K30 Pro (and Redmi K30 Pro Zoom) are even better.

Lcd users are far more than oled / amoled users in China ..but again price will determine if the phone will use oled or not...if the price will be cheaper it has to be lcd ...if you want oled Huawei mate and p series are available ...

It is not correct to say Chinese smartphone buyers prefer IPS in general. But there are non-trivial percentage of flagship-phone buyers who prefer IPS over AMOLED. We should not be surprised if Honor starts to offer AMOLED for their flagship series, for example, starting with Honor 30 Pro Plus, if the market research indicates more buyers interested in this model prefer AMOLED at this point in time.

It is important to note very few flagship phones offer IPS screen option.

Results start to circulate on various forums:
Antutu (v8) for Honor 30S (Kirin820): ~390000.
(After the next software update, it should be higher than 400000.)

Kirin820 is comparable to Dimensity 1000L, but outperform all other current midrange SoCs:
Dimensity 800: 330000+;
SD765G: 320000+;
Exynos 980: 320000+;
Kirin810: 310000+;
Helio G90T: 280000+;
SD730G: 270000+;
SD720G: 270000+.

Honor 30 series will face some serious competition this year. Redmi has just dropped $30 on Redmi K30 5G to compete with Honor 30S. Vivo will enter this segment with SD865 based phones with IPS screen option.

Don't really know what "Honor 30 Pro Plus" is all about. Rumor has it that Honor 30 Series will offer the best camera system ever for this price segment ($400-$600). Not only will it beat "Redmi K30 Pro Zoom" by a margin, it will give Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro a serious run for the money. Just a rumor for now, though.

Dennis.K, 31 Mar 2020I meant did they specifically choose to have an IPS display*Yes, a larger percentage of potential buyers of Honor Flagship series prefer IPS over AMOLED. (This is based on market research done by Honor Marketing team, on a weekly basis.) Those are tech-savvy buyers who have had extensive prior experience with both IPS and AMOLED screens and have a clear understanding of both the pluses and minuses of both type of screens.

There are many reasons why a non-trivial percentage of tech-savvy buyers prefer IPS over AMOLED. A full explanation would require an essay which should be avoided here.
