    I've the p20 pro at the moment and thinking of upgrading. 469 from carphone looks like the best around with the GT watch free and 20 euro top up that I won't use. Does anyone know what these are like to unlock? Or any online company that can get the code? Previously, I've always bought on my network or sim free

    From looking around previously it's about 50 to unlock

    I've just ordered this morning, it says that they are delayed with the restrictions, I'll let you know how it goes.


    It looks like ebay is the best option for unlocking?

    Some carphone warehouse shops seem to be open too (a couple in Limerick are, anyway)

    It says the P30 Pro is an online exclusive.

    Still can't find a decent glass screen protector for herselfs Pro.

    Is this deal on pay as you go or contract.

    Which network would you be locked into?

    It's pay as you go, and I'm on gomo but would prefer it to be sim free. I'm not sure if the free watch is the gt or gt2

    Let us know how you get on , I would be interested to know if the phone is the dual sim version .

    Seems like a decent offer to be fair

    I'm considering buying as well. I'm with Vodafone so happy enough with it being locked. I wasn't sure re the dual sim vs single sim, so i've contacted Carphone Warehouse and they're looking into it for me. I'll post here if I find out.

    I didnt think CPW stocked dual sim phones, I used work with one of the networks and I don't think we or CPW every stocked them.

    I have the P30 pro nearly a year. The screen has definitely scratched more than previous phones I have had. I never use a screen protector.

    Mine is the same, I never use a screen protector on any phone, this one has more scratches than previous phones combined.

    Mine is regularly thrown into and stored in a bag pocket with a load of cables, USB keys, and memory cards and it’s never marked at all.

    Would be very surprised if this was a dual sim as most providers want you to stay with them hense they dont provide dule sime phones. Three have a good deal at the moment on bill pay for the p30 pro. 30 euros pm with 289 euro upfront, all you can eat data three to three calls and 100mins flexi mins, 24mth contract so just over a 1000 over 24months, not a bad deal compared to others.

    Bought a Samsung A40 from Three on PAYG last Christmas and it's dual SIM. It's locked to Three but as long as there's a Three SIM in it, the other SIM slot will work with Abby network.

    It arrived today with nightline, very good in fairness. The watch is the GT2 Sport 46mm and it's very nice. First impressions are really good, the zoom on the camera is insane. I do miss the physical button though, even if it didn't depress on the p20, will take time to get used to.



    I've bought the unlock code from ebay so hoping to have it by the beginning of next week.

    That’s one of the newer versions to get around the Android restrictions isn’t it? The breathing crystal is one of the original model ones, I’ve that one myself but the back fairly scratches.

    Spoke to Huawei before about the lack of colour options sold here they replied it's the networks buyers decide what would sell here and black and dark is the preferred on the networks
