The Huawei P30 features a much better camera than HTC U11, because although it has a tinier diafragm aperture which is not good for low light images, and they both have the same 3840x2160 video definition and the same 30 frames per second video frame rate, the Huawei P30 also counts with a back facing camera with a much better 40 mega-pixels resolution and a way bigger sensor capturing more light and vivid colors.
Although Huawei P30 is a better device, it is way more expensive than HTC U11, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the HTC U11. If you are trying to save some dollars, you can buy HTC U11, giving up a few specs and features, but you'll get the most out of your money.
