Huawei P30 vs Huawei P30 Pro 2020

Name: Huawei P30 Pro 2020
Brand: Huawei
Availability: InStock

Our Verdict: Huawei P30 Pro 2020 pairs a 6.47-inch OLED screen with 256GB of storage, giving it more space for viewing and keeping local media than the 128GB Huawei P30 represented here. The regular model has a smaller 6.1-inch OLED panel and weighs 165g rather than 192g, making it the more manageable handset. Both use the Kirin 980 chipset, so the 2020 name alone is not a reason to assume a different processor. The Pro 2020 suits a larger media library and screen; the regular P30 has the more appealing dimensions for compact-phone users.

If you'd rather pay up front, the 30 is the cheaper buy at £135 SIM-free.
