Today, Chinese manufacturing giant, Huawei, officially released its latest mid-range smartphone, Honor 30S. This device is the first smartphone to come with the Kirin 820 5G SoC.

In the camera department, this smartphone comes with a quad-rear camera setup. It uses a 64MP main camera as well as an 8MP telephoto lens (3x optical zoom), 8MP 120° ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2MP macro lens. The Honor 30S 5G comes with a decent 4000 mAh battery that supports 40W super-fast charge.
