Huawei has now confirmed that the P30 and P30 Pro smartphones will be launched in Paris on March 26. The company had earlier teased a March-end launch, but has now confirmed the proper launch date. The Huawei P30 series will launch at an event in Paris, and the date announcement comes with a cryptic video that teased the phones' camera capabilities. Based on the video, we can speculate that the Huawei P30 series will come with an upgraded lossless optical zoom system that will let you take good quality macro shots.

The Huawei Mobile handle on Twitter announced that the Huawei P30 series is set to launch on March 26 next month at an event in Paris. The tweet is accompanied with a teaser video that shows different monuments in Paris followed by a zoom shot of each. The monuments shown in the tweet include the Eiffel tower, Arc de Triomphe, and Notre-Dame de Paris. All the photos of these monuments are followed by a zoom shot hinting at lossless optical zoom capabilities. This teaser corroborates with past leaks that suggest that the Huawei P30 Pro will likely include a periscope-style rear imaging hardware to facilitate lossless optical zoom.
