While the renders don't reveal the device's front, they do give us a clear look at the Honor 30 Pro from the back. Although not quite as large, the camera module on the back of the phone appears to be similar to Huawei's P40 Pro. Just like the P40 Pro, the Honor 30 Pro is expected to feature a massive 1/1.28" type 50MP primary sensor. It is also rumored to have full-pixel Octa PD autofocus and a periscope module, although no other details have surfaced so far.
Rumors suggest the phone will come with a 6.57-inch FHD+ AMOLED display and pack a 3,900mAh battery. Under the hood, the phone is likely to feature the same Kirin 990 5G chipset as the Huawei P40 Pro, paired with at least 8GB of RAM and 256GB storage.
