Huawei P30, P30 Pro update adds DC Dimming, in-display fingerprint tweaks

The P30 and P30 Pro appear to be receiving an update in China that brings with it DC Dimming features along with much needed in-display fingerprint reader improvements.

The DC Dimming technique essentially adjusts the DC current to dim the display. The only problem with this method is that visible display quality can suffer, which is arguably why the feature is not found on more than a handful of devices at present.

 The update measures in at a steady 400MB and brings devices to the 9.1.0163D firmware.
