I have used a Huawei for the last 4-5 years and found it to be the best smart phone I ever had.
So I decided to upgrade to the P30, with the Android 9 operating system.
Package arrived and I read the small multi language instruction sheet and finally realized that I had been provided a small specialized pin to make the SIM card carrier eject.
When the carrier came out it looked fragile and easily damaged and possibly able to be inserted upside down.
I did not like the fact that a small specialized pin was required to eject the carrier. It is easily lost and since I frequently change SIM cards when traveling internationally it is one more unnecessary item to carry and lose.
So I tried to get my Consumer Cellular SIM card to ride in the carrier in every possible position and it just would not fit.
I read the instructions and it said not to use a SIM card that was cut or modified, mine was not either, it was an original equipment SIM card in my previous Huawei purchased from Consumer Cellular.
So before damaging anything and realizing that what starts off bad generally goes from bad to worse, I packed the P30 back up and sent it back for a refund.
I just wish I could find a Huawei with the features that I need that would accept my SIM card in a convenient location and manner and have the new Android operating system.
I think it would have been a good phone with everything and more than I wanted but if the SIM card does not fit, and cannot be easily changed out without an easily lost specialized pin, it is not the phone for me.
