Editorial report
Honor 30S technical sheet
The Honor 30S suits buyers looking for a 5G phone with flexible camera options and fast charging, provided they can accept below-average battery capacity. Its 4,000 mAh battery falls short of the average for phones of its time, while 40 W charging is faster than what most offered. That makes battery capacity the main compromise, despite the strong charging specification.
Its camera setup pairs a 1/1.73″ sensor, larger than that of most phones of its time, with 3x optical zoom that is among the best. There is also an ultrawide camera, and video recording reaches 4K at 30 fps. The 6.5-inch IPS LCD display delivers 405 ppi, a higher pixel density than most phones of its time; the display overall is above average.
The Kirin 820 5G posts an AnTuTu result of 373,768, above average. Its 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage exceed what most phones of its time offer. Connectivity is also above average, with 5G, dual Nano-SIM, Wi-Fi 5 and a 3.5 mm audio jack. The Honor 30S earns a NeoScore of 5.3 and stands above average overall. It makes the most sense for buyers who prioritize optical zoom, 5G and fast charging over a larger battery.
