Huawei Mate 30/Mate 30 Pro

They kept one for you, I think.
I hope...
I asked @Huawei to check for me. Havent heard back yet.

So now they say no unlocked bootloader, so no sideloading Google Play store etc.

There is a way:
 
Huawei explains how it achieved 7,680fps slow-motion video capture

The Huawei Mate 30 Pro boasts 7,680fps slow-motion video capture, far exceeding what other smartphones can do (that’s 8x the frame rate of a 960fps video). Huawei exec Bruce Lee detailed how his team pulled off this feat.

The phone records 0.12 seconds of footage, which then expands to 32 seconds of 30fps slow-mo video. That’s 945 frames captured at 720p resolution. That stresses the whole chipset as ISP, CPU, GPU and NPU rush to process the data.

However, human reflexes aren’t nearly fast enough to pick the best time to start recording. Instead the NPU analyzes 1 second of video using an AI algorithm to select when to start the 0.12 second clip (this whole process gobbles up 2GB of RAM).

DxOMark: Huawei Mate 30 Pro sets the new camera benchmark

The Huawei Mate 30 Pro climbed to the top of the DxOMark camera ranking, beating the Galaxy Note10+ by 4 points in the overall score. The still photo score of 131 is the highest yet and is what helped push the phone to the top.

The Mate 30 Pro went through the new review process, which includes tests for the ultra wide camera and the phone's night mode. The Mate aced the Night test (it currently holds the highest score) and its zoom camera did an admirable job – it’s 3x instead of 5x zoom like on the P30 Pro, which means it delivers better performance at medium zoom (though it falls behind at 5x).

The ultrawide angle camera got some criticism for its relatively narrow field of view, but that’s the trade-off for getting the image quality that Huawei did (and avoiding issues like soft corners).

The Huawei Mate 30 Pro got a respectable video score of 100, one behind the Note. The camera misses out on HDR recording and some color quantization was noted in indoors video. Still, with a fast and accurate autofocus and capable video stabilization, it earned one of the highest video recording scores.

Good morning, does the Mate 30 Pro have 90hz refresh rate? I can't find anything that suggests it does.
 
Huawei claims it has already sold over a million Mate 30 phones

Huawei claims it has already sold 1 million units of the Mate 30 and Mate 30 Pro. The phones went on sale in China on September 26 (Thursday last week), so they’ve been available for less than a week, making this all the more impressive.

In fact, this number is said to have been reached in a matter of hours as Richard Yu made the announcement during the opening of a Huawei flagship store in Shenzhen a couple of days ago. Including the online orders, Huawei was raking in CNY 500 million a minute, implying a rate of 100,000 sales per minute.

There’s no way to verify the company’s claim, but it has received strong support from its home country as a response to the trade embargoes imposed by the US, which preclude the new flagships from running Google Play Services (something they weren’t going to do in China anyway). Also, there are photos like the one above coming from Weibo and showing people lining up in front of the new Shenzhen store to buy the phones.

I guess it seems reasonable... They generally don't use Google play Services in China anyway so it's not a deal breaker
 
Please be careful guys:


As per the post above yours, Google has just blocked that method and shut down the apps on people's phones who had already installed them.
