In addition, there is also a couple of gifts for those who make the purchase. Huawei Care comes with an extended one year warranty and six months screen crack warranty. Furthermore, gifts likeĀ wireless in-car charger, DJI Osmo Mobile 3 gimbal, and a back case are also available.
Nevertheless, this does not take away the fact that the Huawei Mate 30 series does not use Googleās services and apps. The backdoor to install Google apps via LZ Play app no longer works. To make matters worse, already installed Google apps are not working. Although Huawei is willing to invest about $1 billion for developers to work on its “App Gallery”, this will take several years if at all it will be successful.
Potential buyers of this smartphone in Malaysia will have to have this in mind when making the purchase. Using the Mate 30 series in China is perfect but outside China? its a bit of a challenge.
