At the end of November 2022, I made a quick trip down south for birdwatching, and during my evenings, I explored some smartphone photography in Melaka with my Huawei Mate 50 Pro smartphone.
For this article series, I will share some of Melaka’s street photography taken with the Huawei Mate 50 Pro and around the main tourist area of Jonker Street, also known as Jalan Hang Jebat.
Smartphone Photography in Melaka
Usually, when I explore a destination or place, I will always look for interesting subjects to photograph. If you have followed my work for the last ten years, you will know I have been doing smartphone photography and smartphone reviews for a long time.
As years go by, smartphone technology keeps improving, especially for the typical user. This time, the Huawei Mate 50 Pro impressed me with the picture quality and, of course, the incredible technology that makes smartphone photography so easy nowadays.
Anyway, let’s get straight to the photos I took with the Mate 50 Pro below, and I look forward to exploring more places.

Conclusion to Smartphone Photography in Melaka
Well, I have to say that the quality of the Mate 50 Pro pictures is incredible; even after zooming in, the photos do not break, and this has been one of the main issues from many other smartphones out there. One of the functions I also tested was the Mate 50 Pro camera zoom test while I was in Sandakan, Sabah.
Finally, I did have a fantastic time exploring the old part of historical Melaka, and I have also tested the Mate 50 Pro with night photography in Melaka. In the build-up to the smartphone being released in Malaysia, I have also done a pre-article for the Huawei Mate 50 Pro review in Malaysia with some amazing photos there.
I will also use the smartphone for my next adventures in Sabah, Sarawak and possibly in other countries worldwide, provided I can travel in 2023. Meanwhile, I hope you enjoyed my review of Smartphone Photography in Melaka using the Mate 50 Pro.
