Huawei P30 Pro's camera changes drastically through firmware update
Huawei is currently rolling out a software update for the P30 Pro that's focused on improving the image quality of its camera.
The firmware, some 316MB in size, is said to improve photo quality and make colors appear more natural and authentic.
