Huawei Mate 30 and its better half, the Mate 30 Pro came out in the latter half of 2021. The device got out of the box with EMUI 10 and soon got the EMUI 11 update. The smartphone received a lot of positive critique for its beautiful, luxurious design and excellent performance. Aided with a powerful and versatile camera and even great battery life, the only enemy of Huawei Mate 30 and Mate 30 was its non-inclusion of Google Apps. However, this didn’t make the people refrain from buying this flagship device from the Chinese multinational technology corporation, Huawei.
