Honor V30 and Honor V30 Pro specifications and features
While the Honor V30 Pro is expected to come with dual selfie snappers, the Honor V30 is said to feature a smaller cutout on its display for a single front camera. Both phones may feature IPS LCD panels. However, it remains to be seen whether an OLED panel will be incorporated on the Pro model in the V30 series.
While the Honor V30 Pro model is said to offer a quad-camera setup at the rear, the V30 is expected to offer only three primary cameras at the back. Previous rumours have claimed that the Honor V30 series will be sporting Huawei Mate 20 series like square-shaped camera module on the back. However, the recently leaked images suggest the presence of a rectangular camera module at the top-left corner. The camera housing in the below image has three lenses. The blurry image also suggests that the device could be equipped with a side-facing fingerprint scanner. There’s a possibility that the image below is of the Honor V30, and the Honor V30 Pro could have four cameras at the back.
