Pros

Human Checked Mobile Phone Pros&Cons With Quality Mark
Performance
The 50MP main unit on the back uses the same sensor as the Galaxy S22 - that is flagship enough.
Design
Gorilla Glass Victus display protection is present here.
Display
The display is now OLED - it has been three and a half years since the last such screen on a Nokia.
Battery
It boasts a polished design, a good screen, the promise of continued software updates, and decent battery life.
This device supports 33W fast-charging.
The 4200mAh battery is good for a hard day’s usage.
Price
Proper dust and water protection is still a rare sight in the midrange.
Connectivity
The X30 5G is Nokia’s first premium handset in years, and it makes a good initial impression.
Cons
Human Checked Mobile Phone Pros&Cons With Quality Mark
Camera
Occasionally squiffy camera performance under certain conditions. [source: trustedreviews]

A camera system with no telephoto does not scream high-end. [source: gsmarena]

The 13MP ultrawide is missing AF and with no dedicated macro sidekick closeups are seemingly a no-go. [source: gsmarena]

Performance
It is not a flagship chipset that powers the X30 - the Snapdragon 695 is anything but. [source: gsmarena]

Audio
Because of some issues with the finish and the lack of stereo speakers. [source: trustedreviews]

Certain small omissions like stereo speakers and wireless charging continue to corner the X30 into a conventional midranger position. [source: gsmarena]
