ZTE has a lineup of premium smartphones under its Axon lineup and the company has today launched a new device in the series, dubbed ZTE Axon 30S. The naming of the phone is a little odd, given that the company has already launched the Axon 40 series.
The newly launched ZTE Axon 30S comes in two memory variants — 8GB RAM with 128GB internal storage costing 1,698 yuan (~$237) and 12GB RAM with 256GB of internal storage for the price of 2,198 yuan (~$307).
Apart from some minor changes, the Axon 30S smartphone is very much similar to the Axon 30 that was launched last year. Compared to the Axon 30, the company has updated the software and added some camera functions, and reduced the pricing of the device.
The ZTE Axon 30S features a 6.9-inch Full HD+ AMOLED 10-bit display that offers a screen resolution of 2460 x 1080 pixels, a DCI-P3 color gamut, and a 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, the device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 processor.
In the camera department, the phone has a quad-camera setup on the back that includes a 64-megapixel primary camera, an 8-megapixel ultrawide sensor, a 5-megapixel macro lens, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. On the front side, there’s a 16-megapixel snapper for taking selfies and video calling.
The highlight of the smartphone is that the front-facing camera has been placed under the display, meaning that the phone doesn’t have any kind of notch or punch-hole cutout on top of the screen. Not just the camera but the company has also tucked in the fingerprint sensor under the screen.
As for the software, the device is running the Android 12 operating system out-of-the-box with the company’s own MyOS custom interface. The smartphone is powered by a 4,200mAh battery and supports 55W fast charging.
