An event in Paris brings all the details on the P30, a series of flagship smartphones Huawei claims will do nothing less than "rewrite the rules of photography" through the addition of a four-camera setup.
The P30 comes in 2 variants, regular and Pro. The Pro is the model with the most photography chops, since it features a 40MP Super Spectrum sensor, an ultra-wide 20MP sensor, a "Periscope zoom" allowing for 5x optical zoom and a flight depth-sensing camera. The 40MP sensor swaps the regular RGB colour filter for RYYB (red, blue, yellow), an arrangement the company says absorbs 40% more light to allow for cleaner photos. In addition, the company says a combination of the 5x periscope zoom with data from the other sensors produces a 10x lossless zoom.
