The Huawei P30 features better battery lifetime than Samsung Galaxy S7, because it has 3650mAh of battery capacity. Huawei P30 counts with a superior camera than Galaxy S7, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not recommended for shooting pictures and videos in low-light situations, and they both have the same 3840x2160 video definition and the same video frame rate, the Huawei P30 also counts with a lot bigger back-facing camera sensor which provides a much better photo and video quality and a lot higher 40 mega pixels resolution back facing camera.
Although Huawei P30 is a better device, it costs a lot more than Galaxy S7, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Galaxy S7. So if you want that extra features and specs, you can buy Huawei P30, but if you don't you can save some money and get the Galaxy S7, giving up some features and specs.
