Today an alleged Huawei Mate 30 Pro promo image has surfaced on the web. It gives us another glimpse of the circular camera array that will be present in the flagship. This time, however, we can see four cameras in total, which goes against early rumors pointing to a triple-camera array on the flagship.
The previous case renders have been suggesting that the Mate 30 Pro would ship with three cameras. That makes perfect sense, considering that the P30 square-ish array comes with three cameras and a LED flash. However, this new leak shows the LED flash has been moved to the side. Worth noting that case renders had shown a vague sensor or speaker grille there.
