Huawei launches the Mate 30 Pro 5G in the Philippines

Want to experience the blazing-fast speed of 5G mobile internet? Soon you can as Huawei has just launched the Mate 30 Pro 5G — the first-ever 5G-capable smartphone in the Philippines!

The Huawei Mate 30 Pro 5G is nearly identical to the standard Mate 30 Pro, meaning it has the same impressive quad camera setup, as well as the same flagship Kirin 990 processor. The difference though is that the Mate 30 Pro 5G’s Kirin 990 packs a Balong 5000 5G modem, enabling the phone to connect to 5G networks.

Internals aside, what makes the Mate 30 Pro 5G special is that it comes in the special Vegan Leather Orange colorway, making for a smartphone with a unique, leather-like finish.
