amazon Huawei P30 Lite reviews
Design
The Lite version is not too different from the Huawei P30 and Huawei P30 Pro: the dual-glass body, the screen overflows with the notch that looks like dew drops, glossy paint, the rear 3-camera set.
However, unlike the other two P30 versions, Lite has a frame made of plastic, which means it is more easily scratched. In addition, its screen is an LCD screen instead of OLED like the other two phones.
The P30 Lite has an eye-catching back with 3 colors: White Pearl, Midnight Black and especially Purple Twilight.
The rear 3-camera cluster is slightly protruding in turn: above the 2 MP depth sensor, the middle is the 16MP super-wide camera and at the bottom is the 24MP main camera. Flash is modestly placed underneath the 3 camera cluster. The traditional 1-touch fingerprint sensor of the device remains in the middle position. Fingerprint scanner placed behind fast, accurate. Unlocking the face with a convenient front camera does not have high security.
Huawei P30 Lite still has the position to set the familiar physical buttons when the right side will be the power key and increase or decrease the volume. The P30 Lite is full of basic connectivity ports: the USB-C port located below, the 3.5mm audio jack, the integrated SIM card slot can support both regular micro SD memory cards.
The back of the P30 Lite applies a sleek, luxurious dual-glass design, good grip feel, not too slippery. However, if you pay close attention, there is a small space between the frame and the rear glass that easily causes dust to accumulate inside.
Screen
The Huawei P30 Lite has a 6.15 inch IPS screen with water drop notch in the middle above. Standard screen with resolution of 2312x1080px, 415ppi, screen ratio 19.5: 9.
Interface and features
The lock screen can be set to the magazine screen type, changing the picture every time you turn on the screen. Swipe from the bottom up will show up shortcuts to applications you use often.
On the screen are the applications you install on your computer. Swiping to the right you will see the Google Feed, swipe down from any space, the app search engine and the contacts.
This swipe down action is usually to pull down the notification section on many other Android devices, above the P30 Lite version, if you want to do so, you have to swipe on the fingerprint sensor behind. Then double-click if you want to remove all notifications, swipe back up to hide the notification. And all are not installed by default, but you must turn on at the fingerprint ID setting in the settings menu.
You can completely hide the notch area above by turning the status bar completely into black.
If you want to mutiltask with screen split mode, hold down the Recent button to activate.
On the P30 Lite, you can use gesture-based navigation with actions: swipe up to see the Home page, swipe up and stop in the middle to go to the Task switch. Task switcher, swipe from the left or right edge to Back.
Processor, performance and memory
The P30 Lite is equipped with a mid-range Kirin 710 chipset manufactured by Huawei itself, a 12nm processor, 2 versions of 4GB and 6GB RAM, 128GB memory
When the Performance Priority mode is turned on in the battery settings section, the benchmark score for the P30 Lite goes up a lot (5-10%).
The performance of the Kirin 710 chipset proved quite impressive, asymptotic to the Snapdragon 660, Exynos 9610 and Helio P70, and is no less than the Snapdragon 710 too much. With this chipset, the P30 Lite is capable of regular tasks and heavy-duty mobile games.
The Huawei P30 Lite uses the Android 9 Pie operating system and Huawei EMUI 9 generation, unlike EMUI version 9.1 named EROFS which is available on high-end P30 versions.

Camera
P30 version this time own 3 vertical camera set including: 24MP main camera, aperture f / 1.8 combined with 1 lens fixed angle wide 16MP aperture f / 2.4 and a lens fixed 2MP, aperture f / 2.4 to have depth sensor. Attached is a single black flash below the cluster.
The 24MP main camera with Quad Bayer technology produces 12MP resolution images with less noise than usual. If you take full 24MP mode, if shooting correctly, you will get all the original details.
The P30 Lite has Huawei AI mode, you can easily turn it on the camera interface, giving you more vibrant and contrasting colors than usual. Pro mode allows you to adjust ISO parameters (50-3200), shutter speed (1 / 4000s to 30s), compensate EV (-4 to + 4EV with ⅓ stop increase) and white balance.
It can be said that the image quality is excellent: bright colors, dynamic range, crisp details, stable operation. Photos taken at 12MP resolution can be compared to photos on high-end flagship lines.
The camera can zoom 2x but not the optical zoom so the quality is not good.
The ultra-wide camera produces good images at 16MP resolution, handles distortion in corners (distortion), excellent colors, high contrast, but dynamic range is not very good.
When shooting at night, the image shows that while it still retains its color but lacks detail, noise is still abundant after it has been removed. Not good compared to the mid-range segment.
Night mode, on the other hand, produces a beautiful image, full of details, which is a bit too sharp. There is no Night mode for super wide-angle cameras, nor expect anything more in a mid-range phone.
In addition, Huawei has integrated Portrait and Aperture modes so you can customize the level of blurred fonts and customize the aperture (from f / 0.95 to f / 16). ). The image quality is really not bad at all: smooth transitions, beautiful bokeh, clever algorithms, better than what can be expected in this phone segment.
Selfie front camera with high resolution of 24MP, f / 2.0 range, good color, good detail.
If shooting in AI mode, sometimes HDR will automatically activate as the image loses detail. In portrait mode, you can customize the font erase and beauty features (from 1 to 10). There is also the death of Portrait Lightning if you want to try even though we don’t recommend it.
You can switch to 24MP resolution but it will take longer as well as the picture does not retain sharpness, more noise, loss of detail.
Speaker and sound quality
There is only one speaker facing down like many previous Lite versions. Not equipped with stereo stereo technology. However, the speaker still achieved excellent score in volume.
However, the speaker is reduced in volume, losing the audio frequency range both high and low when playing via YouTube or any music player. And more worrisome is this happens even when you wear headphones. But it’s not too significant, the audio output quality is still great overall.
Battery life
The P30 Lite has a capacity of 3,340 mAh battery (more than 3,000 mAh capacity of the P20 Lite version last year).
The phone supports 18W fast charging that can charge 35% of the battery level in half an hour when the battery runs out of capacity.
