Honor V30 and Honor V30 Pro flagships surfaced in leaks earlier this month, tipping a 60-megapixel camera and a hole-punch design on the front. Honor President, Zhao Ming, has now confirmed that the Honor V30 will be launched in November with 5G support. The Honor chief also mentioned that the upcoming phone will support both NSA (Non-Standalone) and SA (Standalone) 5G standards. The Honor V30 will be powered by the in-house Kirin 990 5G SoC that is based on the 7nm process and is claimed to be the smallest 5G chipset in the industry to support dual-mode NSA and SA 5G connectivity protocols.
The Honor president revealed the news of Honor V30's imminent launch in November while speaking at the 6th World Internet Conference in China, reports ITHome. However, the executive did not share any details about the phone's specifications, neither did he mention anything about the Honor V30 Pro that is rumored to debut alongside the standard Honor V30 with slightly more capable hardware. It must be noted that the Kirin 990 5G chip at the heart of Honor V30 will make it compatible with both NSA and SA 5G networks.
As for the differences between NSA and SA, the former will employ the existing 4G infrastructure to let telecom operators jump to 5G rollout, and is currently being tested in multiple locations. As for 5G SA, it will require new infrastructure, but at the same time, it will let telecom operators tap into the true capabilities of 5G connectivity with higher efficiency and better performance. With the exception of Huawei and Honor, 5G smartphones launched so far support only the NSA standard, which means they can't tap into the SA 5G network when users move to a different region or switch to a different operator.
On the other hand, Honor V30 users will be able to latch on to both SA and NSA 5G networks irrespective of where they are. As long as there is a 5G network available, the Honor V30 will connect to it, irrespective of the NSA or SA mode opted by telecom operators for 5G rollout. As for the phone itself, leaked renders suggest that it will pack triple rear cameras and will have a hole-punch on the front to house the selfie camera. Honor V30 is tipped to pack a 60-megapixel main camera and will come equipped with a 4,000mAh battery with 22.5W SuperCharge support.
Honor V30 Features
Honor V30 will launch with a superb display that offers great performance altogether. It has a large punch-hole display that can provide an amazing viewing experience. It also offers amazing performance with a long battery backup. The device has a superb set of cameras and great storage but it lacks expandability. Considering the budget, the smartphone should have provided a few premium features.
Punch-Hole Display and 5G Integrated Kirin 990 Chipset
The Honor V30 is the first handset from the Huawei sub-brand which is to feature 5G support. It makes use of the new Kirin 990 chipset that features in integrated 5G modem for this purpose. This chipset is built on the latest 7nm process, making it highly efficient. It also makes use of Cortex A77 cores that allow it to be 20 percent more powerful than its predecessor. The Honor V20 pairs this chip with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage on its base model. Like its predecessor, the V30 does not offer microSD card expandability. Also, like its predecessor, the new phone comes with a punch-hole display. This is a 6.4-inch LCD panel that bears a Full HD+ resolution, and a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. The back of the phone is made with strong polycarbonate material, and there is a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor provided for biometrics.
Quad Rear Cameras, Hi-resolution Selfie Shooter
Imaging gets a significant boost on the Honor V30 when compared to its predecessor. While the primary 48MP rear camera remains, quite a few more sensors have been added to assist the sensor. These include an 8MP ultrawide angle camera, a 5MP telephoto sensor, and a ToF sensor for depth mapping. This rear camera setup is capable of recording 4K videos at up to 30fps. For selfies, you have a 25MP front-facing shooter with an f/2.0 aperture. Both the front and rear cameras offer various Ai-assisted enhancements, including beauty, bokeh, and portrait lighting. EMUI also offers an excellent night mode for capturing detailed shots in even the most challenging situations.
Connectivity Options and 4000mAH Battery
To make sure the phone lasts as long as possible, the Huawei sub-brand has made use of a 4000mAh battery on the Honor V30. This battery supports 22.5W fast charging over a USB Type-C port. Other connectivity options include Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, IR blaster, 3.5mm headphone jack, dual-band Wi-Fi, aptX HD, dual-frequency GPS, GLONASS, BDS, and GALILEO.
Honor V30 Price In India
Honor V30 price in India will be expected to be Rs. 39,990. Honor V30 release date will be expected to be in November 2019. The 128GB variant costs around Rs. 39,990 and comes in Black and Blue color options.
