No problem, 28 Mar 2019I dont have any problem nor quarrel with you (if you took it the wrong way), just pointing out... morejust pure annoyance. thats why. i keep seeing "no headphone jack" drama here and there, not just in huawei section. why do they have to whine abt it everytime, i mean everytime. can they just accept it as it is, nobody's forcing them to like the phone anyways. everyone has their choices. if they just said "no 3.5mm hjack, k bye' i would understand, but whining like " no 3.5mm hjack, this is dark times or this a bad phone, this will not sell good" is putting whining to the next level. by all means, a phone's quality is not just measured by hole in it. i am not prohuawei or samsung or any, i am just a tech enthusiast who happens to know the value of appreciation. i appreciate the efforts of these companies no matter how they lack on some areas.
lols i replied to my own comment. this has happened to me many times. a reason to be happy. :)

* less network speed
* better zoom with the rear camera, But I have not compared the image quality.
* less video recording capabilities than S10+ ( 30FPS 4k vs 60 FPS 4k , no HDR no dual Video)
* less front facing camera
* no Ultrasonic finger print sensor, but has optical in-screen sensor
* slower network adaptor 1400/150 VS 2000/150 MBit/Sec
* Less storage option and less support for SD storage
* less processor speed in Freq global model vs S10+ Global model, but did not do life testing or benchmarking

Anonymous, 28 Mar 2019So what is your problem?
You can still use wired headset with this phone.
And is has USB typ... moreI dont have any problem nor quarrel with you (if you took it the wrong way), just pointing out your mistake of stating the USB Type C as an "audio jack", when it is widely known that the term 'audio jack' refers to the standard 3 5mm one.
Don't get me wrong, I love Huawei phones (I myself am one of them, Mate 20 non pro), but the undeniable fact is that if Huawei includes 3.5mm audio jack to all of their phones (not just one out of the two), their already outstanding sales would benefit considerably, since the reality is that a large number of people still use 3.5mm wired headsets and earphones.
I don't see 3.5mm jack as a "thing of the past" and "ancient", nor do I see myself as a "prisoner of the past", given the fact that smartphone companies still include the audio ports not just in smartphones, but in other electronic appliances as well (eg Laptop, desktop etc), so as to allow users to freely use their 3.5mm wired headsets freely between their electronic items, and not have to buy separate adaptors or wireless/usb headsets to compensate for the absence of 3.5mm audio jack. Furthermore, having it allows people to charge and use their wired earphones at the same time, without needing to use adaptors or wireless ones. Not everyone is as rich and affluent as the ones in first world countries. Imagine if computer companies start to omit out 3.5mm audio jack from their products in the future and claim USB/Wireless headsets are the future. People will naturally feel annoyed by it, wouldn't it?
The 3.5mm jack is just something that is so good to have. That is all to be considered by Huawei for future phones. Correct me if my honest opinion is wrong or flawed.
PS. People dont have to label and nickname others as 'whiners' and 'prisoners of the past' just because others do not agree with their own views. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

If you want a phone with best camera (during daytime and especially at night) for taking photos and videos, long battery endurance, stable and bugs free UI, HUAWEI P30 Pro is a good deal.
SAMSUNG new One UI has a lot of problems and bugs currently.

Headphone wouldn'... moreYou should check the videos on YouTube about P30 Pro instead, the phone DOES NOT have a 3.5mm audio jack. When I say audio jack, I mean 3.5mm audio jack. The phone has a set of usb type c earphones included due to the absence of 3.5mm audio jack.
What do you mean by 'usb type c audio jack' lol. Come on!

Comparison between P30 Pro and Galaxy S10+, coming from a Huawei user
- Screen: S10+ (Samsung has excellent AMOLED screens, and the fact that P30 series uses Samsung screens is an undeniable testament to that. P30 Pro's OLED screen is very good too and is no slouch!)
- Battery: P30 Pro (Huawei phones have excellent battery life and battery management processes, as proven by Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro, partly due to its power efficirnt Kirin Processors. Battery life of Samsung phones are great too, but are known to degrade fairly fast, as I have used Galaxy Note8 in the past. My friends who are Samsung users also notice that too)
- Charging Capabilities: P30 Pro (Both have fast charging, wireless/reverse wireless charging, but P30 Pro generally charge up slightly faster. To be frank, this is not really a feature that is worth comparing lol, having fast charging and fast chargers in the box makes both of these phones amazing already, unlike a certain fruit phone :/)
- Processor: S10+, but must be SD 855 variant, Exynos is a big no go (Kirin 980 and SD 855 are very comparable, but in terms of other departments such as emulator gaming that utilizes more complicated graphic processes, SD 855 performs better and thus edges Kirin 980 out)
- Storage Capabilities: S10+ (microSD cards are more accessible and cheaper than nanoSD cards, but that does not deny the fact that Mate 20 series and P30 series can still expand storage just as well, something that people always overlook and undermine Huawei about. I will give this to S10+ due to the greater availability of microSD cards worldwide)
- Back Camera: To Be Determined, P30 Pro > S10+ on paper (particularly due to its phenomenal telephoto periscope camera that offers up to 5x optical zoom, and up to 50x digital zoom! Also, it is interesting to note that P30 series uses RYB sensors for its cameras as opposed to the conventional RGB sensor, which increases P30 cameras' light intake by up to 40% and take better night shots, as claimed by Huawei. All to be tested and confirmed through comparisons)
- Video Capabilities: To Be Determined, S10+ > P30 Pro on paper (s10+ can take 4K@60fps unlike P30 Pro)
- Selfie Camera: S10+ no brainer (Huawei Selfie Cameras are generally poor due to absense of auto focus. Also, S10+ has 2 selfie cameras too)
- Features exclysive to P30 Pro: IR Blaster (very useful!)
- Features exclusive to S10+: Audio Jack (^.^)
Conclusion: Both are excellent phones!
If you value battery and state of the art camera above everything else, go with P30 Pro!
If you want an amazing phone with consistently great features all around as well as an audio jack, go with S10+!

Mate 20 Pro: What are you?
P30 Pro: I'm you, but better in almost every way ;) Although I lack QHD Screen (mine is only FHD+ but still pretty good), 3D Face Unlock & Stereo Speakers, but hey, at least I don't have a big fat notch ;)
To Huawei: Thank you for creating such amazing phones time after time
