"Nano Memory card - Huawei's proprietary memory standard, which no one asked for."
True that. They could have used a hybrid slot for fitting a SIM / NM card / microsd card.

Also on the top of the Mate 30 Pro, there is MORE THAN ENOUGH SPACE for the fitting of the 3.5mm jack as STANDARD!!

              My country will gets it after China.
              - https://www.soyacincau.com/2019/10/03/huawei-mate-30-mate-30-pro-malaysia-launch-price/

              Mate 30 6gb + 128gb = $685
              Mate 30 Pro 8gb + 256gb = $955

              Its the same launch price as Mate 20 & P30 series here. But pretty sure the no Google Apps will hurts the sale.

                Ferraris are terrible for everyday driving & shop car park. But people still buy them.

                For some people Google services are mandatory, so don't buy it.
                This hacky way of installing them is not a long term solution.

                              I will just buy the chinese version and wait xda or other specialists to crack things and make possible install google apps and so on
                              Which will happen with so good and desirable device!
                              See if it is some LG, they will even not know it exists
                              But this here is the big deal, some huge tech inside this mate30pro
                              I just wait november for the 5g version. faster cpu/gpu, 28 antenas, 5 bands for 5g (no other phone has so many) and so on nice stuff

                                Fl80, 03 Oct 2019Just realised there is no star rating. well, should be low due to lack of google services. let's be honest. if the star rating skips that con, would be 4.7 at least

                                  This phone would have catapulted Huawei to the no. 1 spot in market share. I'm really liking Huawei's improved in-camera photo processing in the Mate 30 Pro. Lots of real, fine detail - perfect balance of noise reduction, detail retention and sufficient sharpness, significantly different from the aggressive overprocessing employed in the Mate 20 and P30 pro. Sure the auto white balance may be off under yellow lighting, but really, only users (mostly iPhone users) who don't know anything about manual camera modes should be concerned. For the rest, it's a non-issue because you've got access to a multitude of camera controls including manually setting a white balance/color temperature.

                                  Fine detail retention at 100% crop is more important than perfect color because you can add saturation or adjust the color balance easily in post if you find the color not lively enough for your tastes. On the other hand, adding fine detail at 100% crop when it was never captured in the first place or adding it later where the default in-camera processesing has annihilated it, is something you can never do even with extensive/advanced post processesing. Besides, if you occasionally crop photos to remove distracting elements or to improve composition, fine detail retention at 100% is PARAMOUNT! It's not just for Pixel peeping people! So NO, I will NEVER exchange excellent fine detail detail retention with lively color reproduction EVERY. SINGLE. TIME unless if the color is horribly messed up which is extremely rare in cameras unless you have a faulty color blind sensor.

                                  Great job Huawei! Inclusion of a programmable remote (IR blaster) and expandable memory are very welcome features. Now if only it had Google Play support...

                                    Love the large camera sensor feel. I have to say I'm not a fan of the somewhat lifeless processing, making images look rather bland and requiring Photoshop or another tool to make them pop before posting, but I love the large sensor and low noise. Can't wait for a Samsung phone with their processing and a sensor like this!
                                    That said, good job Huawei!

                                      Anonymous, 02 Oct 2019Gsmarena, it would be nice to see some 40 megapixel jpgs from the ultra wide angle camera. Due... moreHaving a larger sensor, means likely better low light performance, doesn't indicate better performance in good lighting. You also have to consider the focal length equivalents being different, it isn't a good comparison when the lens are geared towards different photography.

                                      If you are just trying to take casual pictures, you wouldn't even care if it had a bigger sensor or the mp count.

                                        My eyes cannot believe this, but Huawei had finally fixed their eye-soring waterpaiting-like oversharpening. Now when I zoomed at full res, I hardly see any! I know that it's just a 10MP pic, but now I can clearly see all the details without those severe oversharpening.

                                        A de-Googled Android companion for my Nokia Lumia 1020 and my Microsoft Lumia 950 XL? Definitely looking like one.
