An Effective Design with new Feature

The mobile design section has long ago been stagnant around but not less effective. However, the Honor brand intended to contribute something new to this area, presenting this ”Sensible Design”: a terminal of electric colors, sinuous edges, an infinite screen with a hole for the double selfie camera and a novel rear module, which emerges from the panel, to locate the triple rear camera. What is special about these two terminals is that the fingerprint sensor is not located under the screen but on the side, something that will undoubtedly improve the unlocking experience.
The screen of both terminals, which covers 91.46% of the screen front according to the brand, is an IPS panel, with a size of 6.5 inches and a Full HD+ resolution, yielding a density of 398 pixels per inch, a standard enough to view multimedia content with superb quality for an average user. This time around, we’re not going to have a notch but a holed screen containing the double front camera.
5G Connectivity

The 5G connectivity reaches the Honor to democratize the new technology at very competitive prices. So far, if we wanted a phone with 5G, we had to loosen our pockets a lot, but that’s a thing of the past. It still has premium mid-range prices but we are already far from almost 1000 euros of other terminals. The new Honor View 30 and Honor View 30 Pro will be compatible with both types of 5G networks (NSA and SA) through the built-in dual SIM. However, your data rate must also offer 5G connectivity.
A High-end Processor
At the heart of the Honor View 30 and Honor View 30, Pro is the Kirin 990 processor compatible with 5G, manufactured in 7 nanometers which we have already seen installed in high-end Huawei Mate 30 devices. We also have 8 GB of RAM and several types of storage between 128 GB and 256 GB.
In the Android layer section, we have Magic UI 3.0, the latest version of Android 10. In principle, these terminals would arrive without Google services, something that could undoubtedly affect their final sales.
In the other connectivities, we find NFC for mobile payments, Bluetooth 5.0, Wi-Fi 802.11 ac, and USB Type C.
5 Cameras for Users Enjoyment

There will be a total of five cameras for the mobile photographer to experiment with. On the one hand, we have the triple front camera which combines telephoto with 3x optical zoom and 109 degrees wide angle. The main lens features a 40-megapixel sensor and f/1.8 focal aperture. However, we cannot forget the dual front camera which allows us to capture portraits using the hardware itself and not by postprocessing, as well as a ‘night mode’ which will enrich the snapshots taken at those hours of the day when the sun goes down and the quality of the mobile photos begins to deteriorate.
Powerful Battery for the Mid-range
And we conclude this review with the section on autonomy and load. This is where we see the differences between the Honor View 30 and Honor View 30. In the Honor View 30 we have a 4,200 mAh battery and 40W fast charge, in the Pro version we find a 4,100 mAh battery with 40W fast charge as well as 27W wireless charge and reverse wireless charging, that is, we will be able to charge other devices using the external battery mobile.
