I'm very disappointed with your picks, as they seem biased.
(Let's see if you can deal with critics, or simply delete it quickly.)

The Mi Note 10 doesn't deserve the title. Most notably, it's the only camera left today that doesn't have a proper night mode (even Apple finally has one with the iPhone 11). The fake night mode it does have does pretty much nothing, except restoring a highlight here and there. Calling that "night mode" is just plain ridiculous and nothing but an eyewash.
Main camera colours are a bit dull, but some people like them like that.

Mi Note 10 2x zoom is of poor quality, as it's quite noisy even on broad daylight, and dynamic range suffers as well. This is certainly not fitting for a "Best phone camera" title.
5x zoom isn't that bad, but still noisy, so it's no surprise it can't hold a candle to the P30 Pro, which you also noted in your review.

If you had mentioned the Mi Note 10 as "Best bang for the bug", that would be fine, while mentioning its deficits (no real night mode, poor noisy 2x zoom).
But it's certainly a long shot form being the overall best camera phone.

Speaking of P30 Pro, it DOESN'T have an "Uncertain software future". Even at present conditions, all Huawei devices that came out prior to the trade embargo will still get full Google updates for its life time, so there's nothing uncertain about it.
Right now, more US companies are getting trade exemptions to deal with Huawei again. Microsoft already got one, and Google will probably be right around the corner. So there won't be problems with the Mate 30 Pro either, if you really want to use Google apps - even though there are much better alternatives out there.
