Huawei Mate 30 Pro becomes one of the models with the lowest DXOMARK audio score

Today, the well-known mobile phone camera evaluation organization DXOMARK announced the audio score of Huawei Mate30 Pro, which is only 60 points. DXOMARK said that this phone is one of the lowest-scoring models they have tested so far.

Let's take a look at the DXOMARK audio test of Huawei Mate30 Pro:

In terms of scoring, the overall audio score of Huawei Mate 30 Pro is only 60 points. The main reason is that the phone lacks stereo speakers, which greatly reduces the playback quality, so the Mate 30 Pro scores very low in the playback category. However, its recording performance is very good, with an excellent score of 72 points, leading the pack among the phones tested by DXOMARK.

In terms of audio playback, for a mono phone, the Huawei Mate 30 Pro has a good overall playback effect. The disadvantage is that the mono speaker of the phone results in poor sound field and balance.

In terms of audio recording, Huawei Mate 30 Pro has very good recording loudness, and the sound field and force effects are worthy of high-end mobile phones. The only shortcoming is that the noise reduction of the phone causes voice resonance and produces some sound loss.

Therefore, DXOMARK's audio test on Huawei Mate 30 Pro gave the following conclusion:

Huawei's decision to equip the Mate 30 Pro with just a single speaker has a decisive impact on the multimedia audio quality of the Huawei Mate 30 Pro, which means that there is no stereo output, which seriously affects the user experience when playing movies, TV shows and music. In many cases, this will also become a big problem when playing games. The fact that there is only one speaker on the bottom of the phone also means that when placing the phone in the most natural landscape position to watch videos in traditional formats, the speaker is biased to one side, making the sound unbalanced and therefore sounding a little unnatural.

So if you plan to use the phone’s single speaker to listen to media, the Mate 30 Pro isn’t an ideal choice. But if you’re interested in using the phone for recording, it has the best mobile microphones DXOMARK has tested to date, with excellent frequency response and overall recording volume.
