Huawei P30 Single-SIM schwarz

Das Huawei P30 ist sein Geld wert. Mit kleineren Schwächen müssen Käufer aber dennoch rechnen.

Das Huawei P30 gefällt im Test mit seinem kompakten Format. Die Abstriche, die ihr gegenüber dem Pro-Modell machen müsst, sind gering. Der Preis dafür ist fair. Dennoch will der Kauf wohlüberlegt sein. Mit dem Mate 20 Pro ist ein ähnliches Huawei-Handy zu einem niedrigeren Preis erhältlich, welches einige Features bietet, die das P30 vermissen lässt - etwa Wireless Charging.

After spending a lot of time with it, we would say that it is a reliable little phone that looks stylish and that we had no major troubles using. Huawei has optimized it to run smoothly, the gesture navigation is one of the best on Android, battery life is solid and the camera is not bad. But this is not a phone for the perfectionists: the screen is AMOLED, but it is not quite as good as on the rivals, the camera has a few neat tricks, but photos have somewhat bleak colors, EMUI is not as polished as other skins and options that we have had for now years like 4K60 video are missing. The problem is that at this price we don't just expect a good-enough phone, we expect great. And as recent launches like that OnePlus have shown us, we can often get a lot more.

The Huawei P30 offers great specs, a beautiful design, and an industry-leading camera, but comes at a cost where it should include a few more bells and whistles.

Huawei's pitch for the P30 is all about the camera, and it's fair to say that the company has delivered. The Pro model may be one step ahead, but this version is still a match for almost any flagship out there, especially in low light and long-distance shots, where Huawei has really thrown down the gauntlet. The P30 also looks stunning, with a big display (and small notch), some lovely colourful finishes, and a seriously slim body - though the trade-off is one of the worst camera bumps we've ever seen. And there's even a headphone jack.

If you're looking for a pocketable flagship then the P30 is a great option for its design and capable camera. That said, last year's P20 Pro will be tempting for price, while the P30 Pro is larger, longer-lasting and more capable in every way - making that the model most will likely want.

The Huawei P30 has one of the best cameras we've seen in a phone, with features like incredible optical zoom and night mode that other handsets could only dream of, but other than that it feels more like a decent mid-range handset than a flagship.
