Thanks Meter : Thread Deleted Email Thread. Hey guys! It really seems to be a great phone but I'm having issues with WhatsApp. Sometimes I feel like the messages aren't really coming up in time, I can open the app and see no new message, close the app, open it again and it will reconnect and show me new messages. It is even more noticeable while using the WhatsApp desktop program on Windows I see a lot of yellow messages saying I'm not connected to the phone OR when I send a messages I see the "clock" instead of the single-double check right away.
My WiFi setting is set to "Always". I'm not using any battery save option from the phone. I installed Greenify not rooted but WhatsApp is not in the list to hibernate Any ideas of what is going on? I didn't have this problem on the G4. Senior Member. Join Date: Joined: Jul With the Galaxy M30, you're still stuck on Android Oreo 8.
I did receive a software update while reviewing the phone which updated the Android Security patch to February but apart from that, there nothing that we haven't seen before on Samsung phones. That said, the software does feel fairly well-optimised and I did not come across any major stuttering with normal usage. You do see some stutter when using multi-window mode and when playing games. Having used the Galaxy A30 for a while, OneUI does feel far snappier to use, so this certainly isn't a performance issue. As for additions like face unlock, the feature does work fairly well with a decent amount of accuracy for an unsecure, 2D-based system.
Samsung's stuck with the same 14nm Exynos we saw on the Galaxy M20 and while it handles daily messaging apps and web browsing just fine, it's certainly doesn't handle heavy games like PUBG Mobile and Asphalt very well. PUBG Mobile is playable on the Galaxy M30 on medium settings but you will notice a considerable amount of frame drops while playing. The single, bottom-firing speaker gets fairly loud and the output off the 3. The fingerprint scanner on the back is also fairly fast but we have seen faster scanners on phones in the same budget.
The earpiece on the front may be small, but I didn't have any issues worth noting while taking phone calls. The bright and punchy display coupled with the brilliant battery life certainly makes the Galaxy M30 a great pick for those who love watching a lot of videos on their phone. With Widevine L1 certification — essential for HD streaming on apps like Netflix, and a rarity among budget phones — this phone certainly has you covered for HD streaming on all the popular streaming platforms out there.
If you are picking the Galaxy M30 for its cameras, you won't be disappointed. The M30 does a great job with selfies and portrait shots and the wide-angle lens here is a definite bonus. Overall, the Galaxy M30 does come across as a good device for the price. Its only major drawback is performance, which will be a factor if you are a gamer or a heavy multi-tasker.

Samsung has done a good job calibrating the screen and I found the white point accurate. Between the ability to adjust the white balance and the built-in screen color profiles, there are enough options to tweak the display to your preference.
Samsung's bundled a type-C fast charger about 18 W in the box but since this is a big battery to fill, it did take me two hours and 25 minutes on average to charge the phone completely. Support UI.

Like most phones, there is a built-in blue light filter that can be scheduled and a very robust dark mode that skins the entire system UI. While the Galaxy A30 lacks a notification LED, you can set the display to always on mode and use it for incoming notifications. The software bar curves around the edges but has a lower degree of curvature compared to the physically curved display along the bottom edge which might irk you if you are as particular about symmetry as I am.
Despite many similarities to the higher end Galaxy A50, the performance here is more in line with the Galaxy M Our review unit had four gigabytes of RAM though there is a lower end three-gigabyte variant as well. Storage options vary between 32 and 64GB but you can expand this via a microSD card.
Out of the box, the 64GB variant had about 50GB available. The Exynos in the Galaxy A30 is a 14nm chipset that combines two high-performance Cortex A73 cores with six Cortex A53 cores designed to improve efficiency. Network performance is very good and the phone latched on to and, more importantly, held on to a rather poor network. If your smartphone usage revolves around social media, phone calls, and general everyday use, the Galaxy A30 should be right up your alley. The Exynos on board is powerful enough and Samsung has done a brilliant job mating the software to the hardware.

Pushing them to high resulted in quite a few dropped frames. The game was still playable, but it was far from the best experience. This is the same software build as on the Galaxy S10, and it has a very similar feature set. I really like what Samsung has done with One UI. The interface strikes a good balance between features and ease of use. Samsung makes it easy to switch between an iOS style app-based grid and the more standard app drawer and homescreen layout.
If you prefer gestures, it is easy to toggle off the home, menu, and back keys. The latter does not have autofocus capabilities.
