Although Huawei P30 is a better device, it is a lot more expensive than Galaxy A21, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as the Galaxy A21. So if you need that extra specs, you can buy the Huawei P30, but if you don't you can save a couple dollars and buy the Galaxy A21, letting go a couple features and specifications.
