started to know about Huawei since its launch of its previous Mate 20 Series
and I have heard great reviews of the phone ever since. My fiancé has also been
raving to me about the cameras on Huawei. I often use my phone to take photos

Further

recently recognised by the Technical Image Press Association (TIPA) as “Best
Photo Smartphone”. The crowning jewel of the HUAWEI
P30 Pro rests in its world’s first Leica Quad Camera that is equipped with a revolutionary
RYYB colour filter array, empowering photography enthusiasts to capture
stunning images even in the dark with the smartphone.

 

The Huawei P30 Pro was also lauded among the crowd for its
jaw-dropping 50x digital zoom capabilities that can capture objects on camera
as far as approximately 580 metres in distance, a breakthrough for the
smartphone industry.

Mr. Francis Toh, decided to switch to Huawei after being
convinced by his wife, Mrs. Amy Toh, who has used the Huawei Mate 10 and P20
Pro. “When I compared the images taken from my phone and my wife’s, I was very
amazed with the detail and the difference was very obvious. I decided to follow
the updates for the latest Huawei products so that I can plan my purchase
ahead. I think what really makes the P30 Pro stand out for me is the low-light
photography and zoom capabilities that no other phone has ever introduced.”

 

In 2018, the global sales revenue of Huawei’s consumer business
reached CNY348.9 billion, up 45.1% year-on-year. In Singapore, Huawei maintained strong sales
