I managed to install Google Play in my Huawei Mate 30 Pro back in April 2020. I have nothing to say against the phone itself. Speed, features, SD Card capacity, RAM size, name it and this phone has it. And here's the killer feature that I like very much: the camera!
Focusing speed, brilliance, night time shots, crispiness of the photos, are but a few of the camera features that you will immediately see and feel. Call quality, cell, and Wi-Fi connection, these are its basic features that never fail.
But here's the deal-breaker.
A lot of financial apps, bank apps, and insurance apps, and those that require integration with government services, well, these and more are usually tied up to Google accounts. And while I was able to install the Google Play application back then, enrol my (many, many) accounts including Google Mail, Google Maps, etc., the prevailing prohibition imposed by then-President Trump against Huawei and Huawei products, which includes the unlicensing of Google Play on Huawei Android devices makes Google Play working intermittently on my phone.
Nothing lasts forever -- even a hack on how to install Google Play on Huawei Mate 30 Pro.
And I had to wait 6 months until I threw in the white towel.
So now I went back to my Huawei Mate 20 X phone. It's heavy, but the weight is a small burden to bear compared to a lot of essential apps not working. That really is a deal-breaker for me.A show stopper. I'm not able to do payments and money transfers, enquiries, check on my tax payments and provident fund contributions, etc., etc. And that is a lot of reasons for me to let go of my Huawei Mate 30 Pro phone.
Nonetheless, now that Job Biden has won the US presidential race if the Google Play prohibition gets lifted, I sure would not think twice of going back to my Huawei Mate 30 Pro phone. I would have all the best of both worlds, being able to install Google Play on Huawei Mate 30 Pro.
Till then!
