Editorial report

Huawei P30 lite technical sheet

The Huawei P30 lite suits buyers who want a light phone with generous memory and can accept a battery with less capacity than most phones of its time. It weighs 159 g, and its 6.15-inch display packs 415 ppi, a higher pixel density than most phones launched around the same time. The refresh rate is 60 Hz. Its IPS LCD screen has a resolution of 1080 × 2312 pixels.

With 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage, it offers more memory than most phones of its time. Storage can be expanded with a card up to 512 GB. The main camera pairs 48 MP resolution with a 1/2-inch sensor. Its resolution is higher than that of most phones from the period, while the sensor size is above average; the camera overall is also above average. An 8 MP ultrawide camera adds a wider field of view. The 3,340 mAh battery is the main compromise, while 18 W fast charging is average for its time.

Performance and connectivity are above average among phones launched around the same time. The P30 lite includes NFC, USB-C, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 4.2, LTE, and dual-SIM support. Its overall NeoScore is 4.4. This is a sensible choice for buyers who prioritize low weight, roomy storage, and a capable camera over battery capacity.
