Description

The Huawei P30 is a high-end Android phone powered by Huawei's Kirin 980 chip, backed by up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. A key selling point is the triple camera at the back, comprised of a main, 40MP camera promising great low-light shots, a super wide-angle camera, and a telephoto camera with 3x zoom. The 6.1-inch OLED screen stretches from one corner to the other and is only interrupted by a small notch housing the front, 32MP camera. The 3650mAh battery charges rapidly and supports reverse wireless charging.

This device is also known as Huawei ELE-L09
