The HONOR 30 series is officially launched – the real flagship killers?

The HONOR 30 series has officially launched; this time with three variants in the fold – the HONOR 30, HONOR 30 Pro, and the HONOR 30 Pro+ - the devices have already appeared on the official Chinese HONOR website and are available to purchase via Huawei’s Vmall in China.

The HONOR 30 Pro and HONOR 30 Pro+ come with a larger 6.57-inch OLED screen with a dual selfie array (32MP+8MP) – and here we start to see a resemblance with its cousin, the Huawei P40. The HONOR 30 Pro+ also gets a 90Hz refresh rate display, while the other two models are stuck at the standard 60Hz panel.

The HONOR 30 Pro comes with the same 40MP main shooter with an 8MP telephoto lens and a 16MP ultrawide camera. The HONOR 30 Pro+ takes the cake by replacing the main lens with a 50MP shooter, while retaining the same array as the HONOR 30 Pro. This camera system is exactly the same as the Huawei P40’s so if you’ve gunning for a more affordable version of that phone, the HONOR 30 Pro+ is your bet. It’s important to note that all three models support 5G connectivity, at least in its native China. The HONOR 30 is powered by a Kirin 985 chipset alongside up to 8GB RAM and up to 256GB internal storage. The HONOR 30 Pro and HONOR 30 Pro+ comes with a Kirin 990 chipset, while the former only gets 8GB RAM, and the latter supports up to 12GB of memory.

The HONOR 30 series ship with Android 10 with Magic UI 3.1.0 layered on top – as per usual, you will get HMS instead of GMS on all three models. Image credit: HONOR China The HONOR 30 is priced from 2,999 Yuan (RM1,842) for the base 6GB+128GB model, 3,199 Yuan (RM1,965) for the 8GB+128GB variant, and 3,499 Yuan (RM2,149) for the 8GB+256GB option. The HONOR 30 Pro will start at 3,999 Yuan (RM2,456) for the 8GB+128GB model, 4,399 Yuan (RM2,702) for the 8GB+256GB option. Lastly, the HONOR 30 Pro+ will be priced from 4,999 Yuan (RM3,071) for the 8GB+128GB version, 5,399 Yuan (RM3,316) for the 8GB+256GB model, and 5,799 Yuan (RM3,562) for the 12GB+256GB variant. In terms of colours there looks to be a green, purple, white, black and a silver that looks a lot like the Huawei P40's Silver Frost. There’s no word on when the phone will officially arrive in Malaysia, but we’ll keep you updated when it does.
