I've just moved from a P40 Pro to Oppo Find X5 Pro and it is a breath of fresh air having access to Google services again. But one thing I really liked about the P40 Pro was the reflection removal tool in the stock camera. I sell quite a bit of stuff on ebay, and when taking photos of shrink wrapped and other shiny items, I usually end up with a reflection. So I need a photo editing app with reflection removal. Can you suggest anything? Retouchme is not an option as I would have to pay for every single photo I need.

Hi,
I just got a new Huawei P30 Pro. After unpacking it discovered that there is a small scratch on the camera glass, just at the edge of the ultra-wide camera. The glass in front of the other cameras seems clear.
Please refer to the photos and the red circle in the first one - this is where the scratch is located.
Do you think it would affect image quality?
I haven't yet shot with the phone in the bright sun, but I could not see any artifacts or flare when shooting indoors towards bright objects, mostly lamps.
In case you think it would negatively impact image quality, would the warranty cover the phone to be exchanged with a new one or only the glass shall be polished/replaced?
Did anybody have similar issues with a new P30 Pro out of the box?
Thank you in advance!
Hey, just bought an huawei p30 pro and overall very happy with it. I just get really nasty flares when in take pictures into the sun and even with sunsets/sunrises. I know it's better not to take direclty into the sun, but it should be ok with for example sunrise no?
Anyone an idea how I can avoid this?
Hey! I just bought a p30 pro and loving the features it has. I'm just having some issues with pictures I take into the sun or even sunrises/sets. I get massive lens flare. Anyone an idea how I can avoid this?
assertion fallacy
Can anyone explain the camera array on the Find X5 please? I know it has two 50mp sensors, one for wide angle and a standard. It also supposedly has one 13mp 2x optical zoom, however if I zoom in, it is still using the standard 50mp lens until I zoom past 10x at which point the small lens below the two main lenses kicks in.. I’d have expected it to be at the specified 2x telephoto. (I tested this by covering each lens with a finger). Also, there’s a fourth lens/sensor next to the 13mp lens.. anyone know what that is? I can’t tell when I’m getting true optical zoom and when it’s hybrid or digital. Thanks!
ehello indeed really strange when I try to know on my X5 pro some sensor and on the time 2 no matter which one I hide with my finger I always see something on my screen!!! so basically if you plug a sensor with your fingers it switch to another sensor is really strange!!!! moreover for me the photo part is even worse since Android 13 because a lot of pictures now are blurry I really don't understand what this is about. if someone can also look for the zoom because it's really strange thank you
EAnd I'm not going to lie I bought it for that photo part is but then I'm really disappointed!!! It was sold by many websites as excellent in photos frankly apart from on The quality of the colors I am ok but on the rest we know we are laughed at. By the way "dxomark.com" Haven't even bothered to test it, it's very simple because it has exactly the same photo part as the X5 classic version. I bought the one believing that would be better than my xiaomi 11 pro Well I should have waited, sure I would be more careful in the future because buy a phone at 1200€ to have the same photo part has something ready with Oppo Find X3 pro me Stay in the throat.
JI spoke too fast, Dxomark Finally did their test, they gave it a score of 130, that seems a bit much to me, I would like to know which android version was the device
I'm using this fantastic phone for over 3.5 years and I'm still impressed with the battery life, although my fingerprint sensor is not working 100% and my main camera not focusing anymore. I'm still glad with the overall performance.
I'm wondering which phone has similar battery life I'm thinking of replacing this phone as the camera and fingerprint issue becomes annoying at times. Which new phone is a good Huawei P30 Pro replacement?
Writing this on my 3 year old P30 pro, too.
Fingerprint sensor - have you tried retraining it? Really make sure you move your finger around to ensure it can recognise your print from so angles. Also, there's a trick I've seen online for improving fingerprint recognition, but possibly at the risk of reducing security slightly. It involves retraining and alternating between your left and right hands so it learns a hybrid of two prints. Somehow it reduces how strict the recognition is.
And I take it you've given the lens a good clean? A dirty lens won't focus. Have you tried it without a case to check the case isn't inhibiting the focus?
As for replacement... the newer Huawei phone are missing Google apps. Samsung's flagships are expensive and the cameras not as good as the P30. The Oppo X5 Pro and Xiaomi 12 Pro both have pretty good front cameras but the rest of the array isn't that great and the front facing cameras are garbage. The Pixel 7 Pro has an impressive camera but early reviews are saying the battery life is not what they claim and plenty of former P30 users are saying it feels like a downgrade!
Basically, there's nothing like the P30 Pro. It really was something very special, and it's no wonder Apple crapped their pants and got the US government to ban Google from supporting Huawei.

Thank you for your kind reply. I cleaned my lens but I think it's a problem that occurred after the Emui 12 update. Didn't try a factory reset (I don't want with all the apps I'm using or is there an easy method to backup and restore all 1:1?)
Fingerprint is probably because of my screen protector and I don't want to remove it because I was lucky to find a full glue, full coverage not only the edges screen protector. Don't know where I can order a new one. Thanks for the tip btw.
I'm looking for a phone with a similar screen on time and a good camera. I don't care if it's slightly worse than the P30 Pro as long as it's good I'm fine with it.
Great battery life is important.
I have recently changed the battery under warranty(last warranty day) and now it's even better, with 2 days battery life possible sometimes. They also changed the screen, so I will be keepin this phone for quite a while longer. Can't find another phone that ticks so many boxes...
