Hey guys, I just ordered a Huawei P20 Pro and I was kind of worried about the lack of stabilization in 4K video recording. I was just wondering if Huawei has mentioned bringing stabilization in an update at some point in the future? I know OnePlus was able to do it with the OnePlus 5, so I really don't see why Huawei wouldn't be able to do it as well.

They made some improvement in camera section in few recent updates. Slow mo feature is at least as good as S9 now. It can auto detect object movement and start the slow mo. Pro mode has got some improvements as well. More variables are available now, like ISO 102K (previously only up to 3200, then updated to become 6400, and now at full capability)
I think we will eventually see the stabilisation in few more updates. Just cross the finger and hope that kirin 970 is capable enough.
They just released the GPU boost for Mate 10 btw, cant wait for it to arrive in P20. Or maybe, ported. :silly:

I recently contacted support and here is their response:
Thank you for writing in. Actually, we are currently working to officially support the Huawei P20 Pro in the near future, but it is yet to be released because it is requiring major changes in the code. As it stands, it is not possible to implement manual white balance functionality and the device has no support for high bitrates.

So that's means P20 Pro wont get Filmic Pro because Huawei color OS?
Not sure but they're definitely working on it. Here's some more info:
"It's my understanding that the Huawei P20 Pro has enough correct implementation of the Camera 2 API for FiLMiC Pro to support the device as soon as we get the white balance and bitrate issues handled."
Have you tried using Open Camera on the P20 Pro yet?
I tried it ages ago but didn't like the UI, I've heard that it doesn't have the "post sharpening" which is good for some poeple
Filmic works fine on my P20 Pro.
Oh okay cool, They must've updated it

Can you confirm it records at 4k, as well as locking the white balance, and ISO?
Many thanks
Yeah you can. Also 720p at 240fps but not 960fps
Hi everyone
Since android's version of Android PIE, is slowling rolling out to Mate 10 Pro's, has anyone yet made or found, a review of the changes, specifically for the Mate 10 Pro?
Sure, there's a couple of reviews & Youtube videos of the Beta version and of EMUI 9, but I'm looking specifically for the official PIE update on the Mate 10 Pro.
Anyone found a review yet?
Not really
I'm using it for a week now. It looks better. Battery life was bad over the first 2 days after the update but it's better now ( slightly better than Oreo). Some stutter is happening here and there but not too much. Free ram seems to get lower ,so apparently using more ram. Camera is much better.
Can you specify in what way the camera got better ? picture quality ? video quality ? night mode ? exposure ?
I haven't gotten an update since April last year, so I got EMUI 9 and all the intermediate changes all at once. Camera is insanely better, it doesn't overexpose at all like it used to, back in EMUI 8 the camera overexposed everything all the time. I got 960fps slowmo from only having 240fps one. I got hand-held night shot that works exactly like the P20 Pro, works wonders. The interface is changed I have to get used to that, it's not bad. I can also turn off Master AI now, couldn't do that before...
I just read a post that P30 and P30 Pro are receiving an update that has selfie night mode... does anyone knows if we're going to receive that kind update in the future too?
Here is a link of the post:
https://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_p30_and_p30_pro_receiving_selfie_night_mode_with_latest_emui_update-news-38637.php
It's possible in EMUI 10 or in a patch, but since some of the updates that p30 pro got so far and none of the previous flagships didn't get(aka improvement in camera app) i highly doubt that.
They didnt even add HDR to the selfie camera in the P20 pro. which was in the mate 20 series, and honor devices using the same sensor and sometimes devices with slower chipset. so i doubt they will add it to P20 pro.
I love the P30 Pro, my only frustrating is the slightly processed look (over sharpening) to photos in Auto mode, avoided if shooting in Pro mode with RAW on (the jpeg produced is directly from the RAW file so no heavy processing at all) but would be great if auto mode results were more natural... I see this quote from a review of the Mate 30 Pro "Although the phone has the same main camera sensor as the P30 series, Huawei did changes to the processing. The biggest change visible is the removal of a degrading sharpening filter, allowing the phone to actually take advantage of the pixel-sharp clarity that the sensor is able to capture. In daylight as well as in most low-light scenes, this allows the Mate 30 Pro to showcase amongst the best spatial resolution and detail retention of any phone currently on the market" any way to delete the P30 pro camera apk and install the Mate 30 apk??

Shortly NO, you can't. In order to have the same functions as Mate 30 Pro, you would need root acces in order to install a mooded apk (P30 Pro has Kirin 980, Mate 30 Pro has Kirin 990 which is slightly different) + the camera libs & rest of the camera xml files.
Only hope for the P30 Pro users is that Huawei will update camera processing and other algorithms in order to match the ones from Mate 30 Pro in the next 2-3 firmwares releases, but i have doubts about it, because Mate 30 Pro IS atm their NEW FLAGSHIP and as it seems, in March they will release P40 Pro, so don't think they will work on more camera tweaks/improvements after that release, judging how they've done in P20 Pro case, which gets only security patches and EMUI 10 update, scheduled to be pushed to devices sometime in March

Glad i could be usefull and sry if it's not the answer you've expected, but on Huawei devices things are a lot more complicated than are on let's say Samsung, where you still can unlock bootloader, root device, flash customised deodexed firmwares, mod a ton of apps and so on...
On Huawei we have to use stock firmware with minor improvments using 3rd party apps, because the've stopped giving unlocking bootloader codes, so therefore no root/no devs to create custom firmwares or mood kernel/no help from OEM....

I was wondering if this feature will be implement to P30 pro. It's pretty neat.
Hope it will be available soon and they gonna keep updating it.

As i've read the description above on their launch on P40 line-up, yes, we might get this option after we'll get EMUI 10.1, because i think it has to do with new EMUI version that will bring camera software improvements and to device overall :highfive:
''It’s not the only software enhancement brought by new EMUI and camera from P40 line-up. As before, Huawei is using AI to automatically recognize scenes and adjust the camera settings proactively, but the P40 series introduces Golden Snap. That combines burst photos with AI, doing analysis on over 90 facial features and over 30 different postures to select the best image out of the burst. It doesn’t stop there, though. Golden Snap also promises to remove passers-by in the image, and can even remove reflections from glass and other reflective surfaces.''

Golden Snap for EMUI 10.1 P30 Pro
I just got my P30 Pro updated to the latest EMUI 10.1 but I don't see the Golden Snap feature anywhere. Anything I'm missing? Awaiting response.
