The Huawei P30 Lite is part of the triple force of the 2019 Huawei P30 series, but contrary to expectations, it was launched separately from the Huawei P30 and P30 Pro as it was released a week later. Released as a slimmed-down version of its two sibling models, it can't quite match the same performance, but is priced more attractively as a result. The device is available in four colours and the memory options are 64 GB, 128 GB and 256 GB.
It scores particularly well with its good performance and chic design, while the camera is somewhat disappointing, especially in comparison to the Huawei P30 and P30 Pro. At Back Market you can buy a Huawei P30 Lite for less than £200 and save up to 50% compared to a new device. So not only do you save money, you also save electronic waste thanks to the purchase of a used, but refurbished Huawei P30 Lite.
Many smartphone manufacturers nowadays release several models in one series to appeal to a wider audience. Often there are three options, the flagship, a high-end version and a slimmed-down version. Huawei usually adds a "Pro" to the high-end version and a "Lite" to the slimmed-down version. In this case, Lite means quasi light, i.e. a lighter, less powerful option of the main model. The processor in the Lite version is the slightly weaker Kirin 710 processor and it is supported by 4 GB RAM.
We've already learned that the P30 Lite isn't quite as powerful as its siblings in the P30 series, but it still has a lot to offer. We'll briefly list some of the strengths and weaknesses of this smartphone:

Here, the decision is entirely up to you: the Lite can't offer quite as much as the two stronger models, but it has a very interesting price-performance ratio and is thus a good alternative if you don't want to spend a lot of money. The Huawei P30 Pro serves the middle ground, is much stronger in performance as well as in terms of the camera and has a higher price accordingly. For the ultimate Huawei smartphone experience, the P30 Pro is the right choice. It gives you the best that Huawei has to offer in 2020.
Yes, the Huawei P30 Lite, which you can buy without a contract from Back Market, can access the Google Play Store and use Google services as normal.
The Huawei P30 Lite requires your SIM card in nano-SIM format. You also have the option of using a second SIM card in the device at the same time. This is also a nano SIM card.
