This just in: The new Huawei P30 and P30 Pro will be formally launched in the Philippines April 13th. The event is scheduled to take place a day after the preorder period for the high-end P30 phones ends on April 12. The presale for the P30 series starts April 5, while the first day of selling could also happen on April 13.
Those who pre-book a P30 or P30 Pro will receive a Huawei Watch GT smartwatch valued at P12,990 (around $249), plus other freebies depending on the unit and where you make your purchase. For instance, one local retailer will be pairing the Huawei P30 Pro with a Y6 2018, on top of the usual bundle, to sweeten the pot; another is offering a remote-controlled drone worth P3,499 ($67). The full list of participating stores can be found here.
Huawei is also throwing in a booklet of voucher codes, with P100 ($2) discounts being offered by different partner retailers and service providers. There’s a full list of vouchers on the company’s official Facebook page.
