It's time for the durability test of the banned Huawei Mate 30 Pro. There is currently a ban

in place here in the United States that prevents US companies from doing business with Huawei.

It's not illegal for civilians to have the phone, of course, but Android phones that

don't get updates or have the Google Play Store are not very appealing at the moment.

Outside of the USA though, Huawei is still globally the number 2 smartphone manufacturer,

right under Samsung, and right above Apple at number 3. So it's still worth taking a

The first thing I noticed is the wraparound endless screen called the Horizon Display,

which pushes the power button onto the back half of the phone. Rather interesting. The

display wraps quite a bit further around the edge of the phone than it does on the curved

edge of my Note 10 Plus. This should be a good durability test.

Now you might be thinking to yourself, 'Wow, this large circular camera lens cutout on

the back reminds me of another phone.' And you're right. Both this Mate 30 Pro and the

OnePlus 7 both have large circular camera lenses with multiple cameras inside. The OnePlus

7 shattered during my durability test. I think the large hole cutout made the glass weaker.

So it'll be interesting to see what happens with this Mate 30 Pro which has the same size

Let's start with the scratch test. It's been a minute since we've done a scratch test.

If you remember, these Mohs hardness picks can tell the difference between plastic, which

scratches at a level 3, and glass, which scratches at a 5 or 6. Sapphire, which scratches at

a level 8 or 9 is one of the harder screen materials. If we look closely we can see that

we are starting the year off right with scratches at a level 6 and deeper grooves at a level

The Mate 30 Pro is using Gorilla Glass 6. The tempered glass surface will be scratch

resistant. And my razor blade will do no damage. There is a notch up top. This guy is hiding

the front facing sensors, along with the 3D time-of-flight camera, and a 32 megapixel

selfie camera. With no visible grill slot, the Mate 30 Pro has an underscreen speaker

that vibrates up through the glass. We'll have to see what that looks like from the

inside during the teardown video. It is one less hole they have to make water resistant.

50% of the sides are covered by the front glass from that wraparound screen. The other

half of the sides is covered with a very thin strip of aluminum before the curve of the

back glass starts. It's mostly all glass. The one-colored power button is metal. The

top of the Mate 30 Pro is also metal, along with the small black circular IR blaster for

changing the channels on TVs. I basically just acts like a remote control.

Now, the sides of the phone are where things start to get tricky. There is no room for

volume buttons on this phone, so in order to adjust the volume you have to tap on the

side to bring up a volume slider...which is probably one of the worst ideas of all time.

Like if your phone starts ringing in class, or you forget your media audio is on during

a meeting, or you know, any other situation where you need to quickly turn down the volume,

this method is anything but quick. And you have to very specifically make sure to touch

the screen half of the side bezel since that's the only place that will sense your finger.

The aluminum frame will not. Personally, I'd skip this phone for the volume reason alone.

There is a USB-C port on the bottom. No headphone jack, but there is a SIM card tray with a

proprietary sized Huawei nano memory card slot, which basically means the memory slot

doesn't exist. Huawei nano memory is 45% smaller, but also costs 45% more than standard micro

SD. Not worth it. I do, however, appreciate the back of the phone. It's back panel catches

reflection and then throws them back at weird angles. Kind of like a fun house mirror. I

kind of like it. The back panel has no musical texture like we saw in the Mate 20 Pro last

year. But it does have four cameras tucked into this circular camera lens. A 40 megapixel

normal camera, a 40 megapixel ultrawide camera, and an 8 megapixel 3x telephoto zoom camera

with an additional 3D depth sensing camera. There's also some dual LED flash action over

here on the side, and it's all covered with the same scratch resistant glass. You can

see the trippy reflections on the back panel a little better over here, kind of like you're

There is still quite a bit of controversy around the Huawei ban here in the USA. Some

people say there was espionage, but others say the reason for the ban was in part because

the trade war and that Huawei had passed Apple in global smartphone shipments. Microsoft,

who worked with Huawei providing Windows software for laptops, was one of the loudest voices

asking for valid proof and reason for the ban. Unsure if they ever got the proof they

were looking for, but Microsoft was allowed to start selling licenses to Huawei again

in November of 2019 – just a few months ago.

The 6.5 inch 1176 x 2400 OLED display lasted about 25 seconds under the heat from my lighter

and actually recovered leaving no burn marks behind. Huge thanks to Audible for sponsoring

If real life government spying conspiracies tickle your fancy, and you'd like to educate

yourself for the new year, there's an interesting audio book called Permanent Record by Edward

Snowden. Controversial to be sure, but still worth a listen. You can get your first audio

book for free plus two Audible Originals when you try Audible for 30 days. Audible.com/jerryrig

or text the word “jerryrig” to 500-500. Audible Originals are the exclusive audio

titles created by story tellers of all genres and are only available on Audible.

Audible's also issuing a challenge for the new year to both current and new listeners

to finish 3 Audiobooks by March 3rd and you'll get a $20 Amazon credit. Finish three by 3/3

and get $20. You don't need to do anything to enter. Audible will keep track of that

for you. Permanent Record did win NPR's Best Book of 2019 Award, so it's got that going

for it which is nice. Audible.com/jerryrig or text “jerryrig” to 500-500.

Now it's time to see if this Mate 30 Pro has the same cracked glass fate as the OnePlus

7. With a bend from the back we see no flex in the device. It could be the way that the

glass is curved that's adding more structure. Or it could just be the super-strong frame

that's keeping the whole phone rigid. Bending from the front we get the same result. The

Mate 30 Pro is a well-built solid phone. Even though it has a huge hole cut out of the back

of the glass, the reason the glass didn't break is because of how stiff it is. The OnePlus

7 is just more flexy which allows the glass to move out of it's comfort zone and shatter.

Anyway, thumbs up to the Mate 30 Pro for everything except that volume button situation. But like

always, let me know what you think down in the comments. Are invisible volume buttons

Hit that subscribe button so you don't miss the teardown. And come hang out with me on

Instagram and Twitter. Thanks a ton for watching. I'll see you around.
