So a friend of mine is upgrading as is offering me one of his old phones, both have their merits.

Option 1 is possibly one of the nicest phones made in recent times P30 PRO 256GB single SIM

Option 2 is a more recent phone 📱 Oppo find X2 Pro 512gb. Much newer but not quite as well known brand.

Can somebody give me some real information ? I think the Oppo is more future proof 5G etc

Appreciate honest reviews

  Everyone here will suggest you go for Oppo find X2 PRO. The main reason, refresh rate of 120hz on oppo over 60hz Huawei.

  Seems like you need to make friends with iPhone users

  Do you have a budget?

    BTW 5G in Melbourne varies massively between providers.

    The 5G map for Vodafone is atrocious. On the otherhand, Telstra's coverage is expansive.

    However, your plan/prepaid/postpaid also plays a big difference. 5G is available on Vodafone prepaid - and for Telstra its extremely limited to the most expensive offerings.

    There are alot of factors you should think about - because you can't future proof a phone.

    Did OP say that a friend of theirs is offering one of their old phones to them?

      Yeah I just feel like maybe neither and spend some cash if that was an option. I'd feel uncomfortable without playstore and google pay on Huawei, and the Oppo OS just doesn't cut it when you need to root for functionality.

        Our most popular devices, including the HUAWEI P30 Series, are operating on Android 10 with support of the Google Play Store.

  Order a Vivo X70 pro plus online and make endless fruitphone enemies who are left in the dark.

  P30 Pro despite being a few years old has a fantastic mobile phone camera.

  Dunno what it's like now, but when I last used an Oppo ~5 years ago, the Oppo Android skin used to be VERY iPhone-like and very aggressive on killing background apps.

  To the point that it made the phone frustrating to use even with a custom launcher.
